2026 Diocesan Lenten Appeal
The Diocese of Greensburg was built on the faithful service of our priests and religious orders. The times may have changed over the years, but the heart of the priesthood remains the same – being present to God’s people. When you make your gift to the 2026 Diocesan Lenten Appeal, 75 Years: Our Foundation, Our Future, you are helping to care for our senior priests in retirement while forming the next generation of seminarians who will lead our Diocese into the future.
