Ukrainian Catholic Archeparchy of Philadelphia Announces its 2026 Reporting & Benefit Soirées

PHILADELPHIA, PA — The Ukrainian Catholic Archeparchy of Philadelphia will host two Reporting & Benefit Soirées in 2026 under the theme "Growing the Good News," bringing together clergy, benefactors, and faithful from across the Archeparchy to mark the year's ministry milestones and support the New Priest and Personnel Initiative.

The events will combine an update on the Archeparchy's programs and growth with a benefit component directed toward the Initiative, which funds the formation and support of priests and lay leaders serving parishes across the Archeparchy.

Guests will hear about parish life, ministry programs, and outreach across the Archeparchy.

"In our 21st century, often marked by loneliness, uncertainty, division, and loss of meaning, the Good News is needed more than ever. As the Church, we are called not only to respond to the needs of today, but also to dream boldly about the future. By supporting the New Priest and Personnel Initiative, we can build this dream together. Every donation will help priests and lay leaders who serve our Church and accompany the faithful, strengthen our parishes and ministries, proclaim the Gospel, and carry the mission of the Archeparchy into the future." — Mitred Archpriest Peter Waslo, Vicar General of the Archeparchy
