Sustain the Work of the Oratory
Your gift makes daily Mass, perpetual Adoration, and campus ministry possible.
Why Give
The Oratory Runs on Generosity
The Pittsburgh Oratory does not charge tuition or program fees. Mass is free. Confession is free. Campus ministry is free. The work is sustained entirely by the Sunday collection and the annual generosity of those who believe in what happens here.
The Oratory is a registered 501(c)(3) nonprofit. All gifts are tax-deductible to the extent permitted by law.

Ways to Give
Support What Matters to You
The Annual Fund
The Annual Fund is the lifeblood of daily Oratory life — the gift that keeps the chapel open, the priests present, and the sacraments available. A gift to the Annual Fund goes where the need is greatest.
Sacred Music
Support the Saint Gregory Institute of Sacred Music: fellowships for graduate students, maintenance of the Paul Fritts Opus 52 organ, choral formation, and the annual concert series.
Rednal Retreat House
Rednal — the Oratory's 87-acre retreat property in Ligonier, PA — requires ongoing care and stewardship. A gift to Rednal supports the retreats, the grounds, and the silence that makes formation possible.
Oratory Meal Train
A practical, in-kind way to support the Oratory community: sign up to bring a meal for the priests. Coordination is done through the Meal Train — no financial gift required.
Legacy & Planned Giving
Gifts of stock, IRA distributions, Qualified Charitable Distributions, or planned bequests are welcome and gratefully received. To discuss a gift, contact the Oratory office (attn: Father Reed Frey, Treasurer) at faith@pittsburghoratory.org.
The Sunday Collection
The simplest and oldest way to support the Oratory is at Mass on Sunday. The Sunday collection is the primary source of operating income and goes directly to sustain the daily life of the Oratory community.
Come to Mass. Give what you can. That has always been enough.
