Bishop David A. Zubik
Publisher, Twelfth Bishop of the Diocese of Pittsburgh
Bishop David A. Zubik was born and raised in the Catholic Diocese of Pittsburgh. Born September 4, 1949, he is the son of the late Stanley Zubik, an Ambridge green grocer, and his late wife, Susan. He attended the former Saint Stanislaus Elementary School and Saint Veronica High School, both in Ambridge, before entering Saint Paul Seminary in Pittsburgh.
Ordained a priest on May 3, 1975, he served in parish ministry for five years, and in high school ministry and spiritual direction for seven years before moving into diocesan administration in 1987. On April 6, 1997, he was ordained an auxiliary bishop of the Diocese of Pittsburgh, a position he held until Pope John Paul II named him bishop of the Diocese of Green Bay on October 10, 2003. On July 18, 2007, Pope Benedict XVI brought him back to Pittsburgh as its 12th bishop. Bishop Zubik’s motto is “Nothing is Impossible with God” and he is known for calling everyone to “learn Jesus, love Jesus and live Jesus.”
