It is with great sadness that we announce that the Most Rev. śp. John F. Swantek, the fifth Prime Bishop of the Polish National Catholic Church, entered into the eternal rest of the Lord, on Friday, January 7th.
We give thanks to Almighty God for his years of ministry as a Priest within the Eastern Diocese, Bishop of the Buffalo-Pittsburgh Diocese and Prime Bishop of the Polish National Catholic Church from 1986 to 2002. In these roles he has touched the lives of countless members of the Church.

Our sincere sympathy to his wife Arlene, and his entire family. Eternal rest grant unto him, O Lord, and let perpetual light shine upon him. May he rest in peace. Amen.
