Join us for an International Food Festival to support priestly formation in the Philippines. Currently, nearly 20 Filipino priests serve as missionaries in parishes throughout the Diocese of Greensburg. Bishop Medil Sacay Aseo, Bishop of Tagum in the Philippines, will be present for the event. In 2018 Bishop Medil Aseo, then, Father Medil Aseo, was serving as Parochial Vicar at St. Mary, Our Lady of Guadalupe Parish in Kittanning and St. Mary, Mother of God Parish in Yatesboro, when he was appointed by our Holy Father, Pope Francis, as Bishop of the Diocese of Tagum. To celebrate his visit, and give thanks for all our International priests, a Mass, celebrated by Bishop Kulick, and an International Food Festival will be held at the Christ Our Shepherd Center on August 25 at 5:30 PM to raise funds to support the priestly formation program in the Diocese of Tagum. The Diocese of Tagum has the largest group of priests serving our diocese in our International Priests Program. Tickets are $75 per person which include samples of food from Italy, Eastern Europe, and the Philippines, plus an entire room of desserts as well as two drink tickets per person. Sponsorship opportunities are available. Your sponsorship will help provide additional support to priestly formation in the Philippines.
