Welcome

We will soon begin our new class for adults who are seeking to enter the Catholic

Church or those who are Catholic and wish to complete their initiation by receiving their First Communion and Confirmation. 

It is not too late to join the new group, but you cannot wait any longer to enroll. We must begin in the 2026 Easter season and usually end next Easter 2027. 

Please call or email Marisa Starceski to begin for next year’s celebrations of the sacraments.

Attention all Catholic young men ages 15-25. Our Lord Jesus Christ has a great plan and mission for you! 

You are invited to attend the Diocese of Harrisburg’s Annual Quo Vadis Days vocation discernment camp to spend time with other young men your age as you listen to the Lord’s call in your life while having fun. Activities include – Holy Mass, Eucharistic Adoration, sports, games, great food, talks and more.

 Quo Vadis Days will be held from June 21-25, 2026 at Mount St. Mary’s Seminary. There is a $100 registration fee; all other expenses are funded by the Diocese of Harrisburg. Registration forms can be found on our website at www.hbgdiocese.org. You may also contact the Office of Vocations at (717) 657-4804, ext. 282 or email  vocations@hbgdiocese.org with questions or for a registration packet.

 Deadline for registration is June 5, 2026.  

Our Diocese has been blessed with vocations to the priesthood, along with a renewed focus on actively encouraging vocations. 

Your support, both through prayers and, if able, financially, is needed for this important ministry. Through your gifts to the Pentecost Collection, our Seminarians can completely devote themselves to the formation process with no worry about meals, lodging or tuition.

 The Pentecost Collection also helps provide care for our aging retired priests.

Plan to attend a meeting at 6 PM on Thursday, May 28, 2026.

Located in the Saint Patrick Conference room in the Parish Office building on the campus of Saint Patrick Church. 

We will be discussing the NEW EMERGENCY PLAN, which is put in place for the Chapel should the need arise.
