Farewell event set for Rev. Miller
Farewell open house gatherings will be hosted Saturday and Sunday for the Rev. Robert Miller, pastor of St. Matthias Roman Catholic Church in Evans City and St. Gregory Roman Catholic Church in Zelienople.
The Saturday event will be at 6:30 p.m. at St. Matthias, 426 E. Main St., Evans City. The Sunday event will be from 12:30 to 3 p.m. at St. Gregory, 115 Pine St., Zelienople.
Miller has served for 7½ years at St. Gregory and for the last three at St. Matthias, taking over when its pastor retired.
Miller will begin duties Monday at St. Benedict the Abbot in Peters Township. Miller’s replacement is expected to be named this week.
“I’m sad about leaving. I really loved serving both St. Gregory and St. Matthias,” said Miller. “People were really warm and friendly. I think I will miss that the most,” he said.
