The Roman Catholic Diocese of Greensburg is hosting a virtual farewell mass for local bishop, Edward Malesic.

The mass will be live-streamed as a COVID-19 safety measure and will start at 3 p.m. Sunday afternoon.

Malesic spent five years as a bishop of the Diocese of Greensburg, and is now heading to Cleveland's diocese.

During his time at the Diocese of Greensburg, Bishop Malesic helped lead through the grand jury findings on clergy sex abuse, the opioid crisis, financial hardships and the COVID-19 pandemic.

Pittsburgh's Action News 4 sat down with Bishop Malesic when he announced his move to Cleveland. He shared what he was going to miss the most about the community.

"The people. The welcome of the people. The people have been so warm and welcoming and loving to me. I've worked with a great staff, and we've done great things. The Lord has accomplished great things through us," said Malesic.
