Mountain Ministry

of the Benedictine Sisters of Pittsburgh


The Benedictine Sisters of Pittsburgh have a long history in eastern Kentucky arriving in 1979. We make our home in a small town that used to be sustained by "mighty coal". The coal is now a waning enterprise and our small town of Neon is but a shadow of its former self.

Our Sisters have been in a variety of ministries in eastern Kentucky.


Also working for systemic change is the Catholic Committee of Appalachia. This organization is spread across several states which deal with issues that undercut the dignity of the people in the entire appalachian area such as residues from coal mining, logging, and the fallout from the welfare changes on the lives of the people.
