Faithful Servants - Celebrating our Jubilarians

The Diocese of Erie is excited to celebrate our faithful servants who mark anniversaries of religious life and ministry.

These men and women have answered Christ’s call with courage and joy, and their years of dedication are a true blessing to our church. From celebrating the sacraments to guiding parishes, schools and communities, our jubilarians have poured out their lives in service to the people of God.

This year, we honor not only their milestones, but also the countless moments of faith and love they have shared along the way. Each jubilarian’s journey is a living testimony to God’s enduring presence and grace at work in our diocese.

With hearts full of gratitude, we join together in prayerful thanksgiving and celebration for these remarkable individuals, whose example continues to inspire us all to live our faith with joy, strength and hope.
