The Diocese of Pittsburgh, founded in 1843, is a vibrant and diverse community of 628,000 Catholics in Pennsylvania. Our mission is to help everyone learn Jesus, love Jesus, and live Jesus. With parishes located in Allegheny, Beaver, Butler, Greene, Lawrence, and Washington counties, we strive to serve our communities through various ministries and programs.

At the heart of our diocese is St. Paul Cathedral, our Mother Church. This magnificent cathedral in the cultural hub of Oakland hosts significant events such as ordinations, anniversaries, and blessings.

It symbolizes our commitment to faith and community. We offer a wide range of services and resources to our faithful, including pastoral staff, clergy support, and guidance through our various departments. We are dedicated to protecting children, youth, and vulnerable adults, ensuring a safe and nurturing environment for all.

Additionally, our focus extends to Catholic education and evangelization, marriage and family ministries, religious education, youth and young adult ministry, and more. Join us on our journey of faith as we strive to build a stronger, more connected Catholic community. Visit our website to find a parish near you and learn more about our initiatives.
