Sacraments

Reconciliation

Until which time we have our own facilities, Confessions are heard at our neighboring parish, St. Francis of Assisi, on Saturday mornings at 8 am, or by appointment.  Or, you may contact the parish office to schedule an appointment for individual Reconciliation. 

Anointing of the Sick

In the case of an emergency, you may leave a message on our Parish number, (725) 304-3304. The message will be promptly relayed to Fr.

To request this Sacrament, please make arrangements through the parish office.  If you are hospitalized, please many hospitals are able to arrange a visit from a Catholic priest.
