Sacraments

Reconciliation: Friday: 7:45-8:15AM and Saturday: 7:45-8:15AM and 5:30-6:00PM. (And also by appointment with one of the Priests.) On occasions such as Lent or Advent, Communal Penance Services are celebrated.

Baptisms: The Sacrament of Baptism will be administered on the first and third Sunday of each month at 12:45 p.m. Please contact the Rectory at 610-395-2876 after the birth of your child to register for the Baptismal Workshop and the Date of Baptism. The Baptismal Workshop is a Diocesan requirement and is offered the 1st Saturday of the month at 9:30 am in the basement of the Parish Rectory Office. Families must be registered parishioners, attending Mass weekly and practicing the Faith. If you have been chosen to be a Godparent, please contact the Rectory for a certificate of eligibility.

Marriages: Couples must contact one of the Parish Priests at the Rectory, at least 6 months in advance of their intended wedding date. Note: Bride or Groom must be a Registered and practicing member for at least 6 months. In addition to the three sessions with the Priest, the Diocesan Marriage Preparation Dialogues must also be attended. The normal day for weddings is Saturday, between 11:00 AM and 2:00 PM.

Anointing of the Sick: Notify the rectory as soon as someone becomes seriously ill or weak due to old age so that they might receive this Sacrament of the Living.

Communion to the Home-Bound: The Priests and Eucharistic Ministers do this monthly; Eucharistic Ministers visit those who wish to receive more often. Always notify us about the home-bound who are not being visited.

HOSPITALIZED: If possible, alert the Rectory whenever someone has to be hospitalized, especially, if this admission is an emergency. Remember that each hospital knows what Catholic Parish is responsible for its emergency situations. A family member or friend should notify the Rectory of any admission of a parishioner.
