Annually Catholic Sisters Week is celebrated March 8th through March 14th. This is the time when we pause to remember the work of Women Religious who have served in this diocese since 1852. Through their unwavering faithfulness in their various ministries, they have shown us how to live as followers of Jesus Christ. The diocesan theme for this year’s celebration is “Pilgrims of Hope in the Midst of Change.” Remember the Sisters who have touched your life and have given you a sign of hope with a note, a phone call or if they are no longer with us, a prayer.

Events for the Week:

• Tune in to Erie News Now at 5:30 pm Monday through Friday (March 10-14) to hear Eva Mastromatteo interview Sisters and those who work with them in their various ministries in the diocese.

• Bishop Persico’s editorial in the Erie Times on Sunday, March 9, 2025
