All Masses have returned to our regular Mass schedule before the quarantine had started. We are increasing our attendance to up to 25% of capacity, as space allows, maintaining proper social distancing at all times. Please note that while the capacity limit at each church may technically be able to increase, we can only allow as many people into the churches that proper social distance allows. You must make a reservation for Mass by calling the office at 570-785-3838 or emailing at apskdp@nep.net. You must wear a mask into church and follow all social distancing practices and procedures.
Watch daily Masses from the Cathedral of St. Peter.
An Act of Spiritual Communion
My Jesus, I believe that You are present in the Most Holy Sacrament. I love You above all things, and I desire to receive You into my soul. Since I cannot at this moment receive You sacramentally, come at least spiritually into my heart. I embrace You as if You were already there and unite myself wholly to You. Never permit me to be separated from You. Amen.
