Early life

Edward Lohse was born on November 23, 1961, in McKean, Pennsylvania, the sixth of seven children of Edward and Ida (née Dedrick) Lohse.[2][3]Edward Lohse attended elementary school at Our Lady of Peace School in Mill Creek, Pennsylvania. He graduated high school in 1980 from Cathedral Preparatory School in Erie, Pennsylvania.[4]

Lohse graduated from Gannon University in Erie in 1984 with a Bachelor of Arts in history, having begun college seminary formation at St. Mark Seminary in Erie. He completed graduate studies at Saint Vincent Seminary and earned a Master of Divinity in 1988.[5][4] He was ordained to the diaconate on October 22, 1988.[6][7]

Priesthood

Lohse was ordained a priest for the Diocese of Erie by Bishop Michael Joseph Murphy on April 21, 1989, at St. Peter Cathedral in Erie.[6][7]

After his 1989 ordination, the diocese assigned Lohse as parochial vicar for one year at St. Thomas the Apostle Church in Corry, Pennsylvania. They also placed him as a campus minister and teacher of theology, German, and Latin at Central Catholic High School in Dubois, Pennsylvania. In 1993, Lohse was appointed as an adjunct professor at Gannon. Bishop Donald Walter Trautman named Lohse in 1995 as director of the vocations office. He was named vice chancellor of the diocese by Trautman in 2001 and chancellor in 2007.[8] Lohse received a Doctor of Divinity in 2010 from Saint Vincent Seminary in Latrobe, Pennsylvania.[8]

In 2010, Lohse went to Rome to serve in the Dicaster for the Clergy at the Vatican; he also assigned as an adjunct faculty member at the Pontifical North American College. Gannon received his Doctor of Canon Law from the Pontifical Gregorian University in Rome in 2015.[6] That same year, Lohse was granted the title of monsignor by Pope Francis.[5]

When Lohse returned to Erie in 2016, Bishop Lawrence Persico appointed him as episcopal vicar for canonical services. Lohse was moved in 2007 to the positions of vicar general and moderator of the curia. Persico also named him as director of the Office for the Protection of Children and Youth.[8]
