The Diocese of Pittsburgh Speaker Series offers an opportunity to deepen your faith and draw closer to God. All baptized Catholics are invited.
Lay ministers serving in any capacity in our parishes will be able to reflect, grow, and better understand your unique role in relation to God and His Church.
These events will begin with a time of food and friendship, then prayer, a talk and discussion.
At afternoon sessions, lunch will be served. At evening sessions, heavy hors d'oeuvres will be served.
Two identical sessions are offered each day; you only need to attend one. No cost.
