We are so grateful to have spent a perfect-weather day in fellowship with our clergy and their families by North Park Lake a couple of weeks ago. We met some family pets, played games together, and built new connections. Thank you to everyone who came out.

Your photos and suggestions for our next fellowship event are welcome below!

"We’re entering now—in the church calendar—into this second, kind of big, half of the church year, which we call ordinary time... and I find myself really grateful for ordinary time this year. It’s not that the feasts aren't fantastic because the feasts are, but there is something about the contrast of feast and ordinary time that’s really reflective of the truth of the reality of our lives."

As we emerge from the spring succession of feast days in our church calendar, Bishop Alex extols the quiet joys of our "green" season, ordinary time.

Please welcome the newly ordained! This past Saturday, Bishop Alex ordained four new deacons into our diocese: Melissa Amber Patton, Matthew Scott Ulrich, Thomas Andrew Verner, and Ryan Christopher Wise. Thank you to all who attended, prayed over our ordinands, and participated in their formation. We look forward to seeing what God accomplishes in them!

"I want to thank you for your prayers. Last week, we heard—three weeks earlier than we thought we would—that the zoning board did indeed approve the zoning variance and as of this morning we signed and closed on this building."

On the morning of June 5, we finalized our purchase of a building at 2860 Perrysville Avenue in Pittsburgh, which we intend to move into later this year. We thank you for your prayers and help as we searched for a new office space and ask your continued support and patience as we prepare for our move out on June 29 and work remotely while the building undergoes renovation this summer.

For more information on our move, timeline, and other details, visit https://www.adpgh.org/were-moving/.

Nominations close June 15! Do you think you or someone you know might be called to diocesan leadership? We asked three members of our Standing Committee (the Rev. Cn. Karen Stevenson and Mrs. Colleen Curlee-Malament) and Diocesan Council (Mr. Chad Green) what serving in a leadership role requires and what it means to them.

Nominations are open through Monday, June 15, 2026, for clergy and lay positions on Standing Committee, the Array, and the Committee on Canons. Diocesan Council positions are nominated and elected on the Convention floor, from the clergy and lay deputies present. All those elected this November will take office in January 2027.

To put your name forward or make a nomination, visit the Convention page of our website at www.adpgh.org/convention.

"Do you have to believe in the Trinity? No, unless you want to be Christian. Indeed, the truth is that—at its very heart—Christian belief and understanding is Trinitarian belief and understanding. It is our conviction as we read the Scriptures that we know and understand that God from eternity has revealed himself to be Father, Son, and Holy Spirit."

Leading up to Trinity Sunday in our annual church calendar, Bishop Alex explains the importance of the Trinity to what we believe and its presence throughout the Bible, from the very first words of Genesis.

"The feast of Pentecost is a major feast of the Christian year. It is not as culturally significant as Christmas and Easter, but it is an unprecedented action of God in the life of the Church."

What is the feast of Pentecost? This week, Bishop Alex takes us through the liturgical significance of this upcoming Sunday in our church calendar and gives us some ideas for how we can celebrate this annual moment together.

Did you miss the Feast of the Ascension last Thursday?

"Ascension is a feast day that is often missed because it happens on a Thursday... but it is a really central feast of the Christian year. It is central because it initiates the reality of the outpouring of the spirit of God on all flesh promised to us in the book of Joel. It is also that which brings Jesus into that advocacy, intercessory role with the Father for us for all time."

In last week's message, Bishop Alex reflects on the importance of Jesus's ascension to heaven and how it is that event that makes the grace and power of the Holy Spirit available to us.
