Catholic Education and Evangelization

October is Respect Life month and in this issue of Pittsburgh Catholic magazine, you'll learn about exciting ways that people in our diocese are upholding the dignity of life, and how you can help. You'll also find details on the Eucharistic Congress and read how our diocese supports the people of Chimbote, Peru. 

In this issue:

• Susan Rauscher, executive director of Catholic Charities of Pittsburgh, offers compassion, healing and hope through her work.

The Culture Project proclaims the dignity of every human person and invites young people to live virtuous, heroic lives.  The missionaries on the Pittsburgh team are available to speak you teens and young adults at schools parishes around the diocese, at no cost.
