HOSPITAL & SENIOR LIVING 

FACILITIES

Communion is taken to those in these care facilities as requested.  Due to the HPPA laws, families are requested to inform the parish office when a parishioner is admitted so that Fr. Ric or Deacon Maurice may visit.  Mass is celebrated monthly at the following two Senior Living Facilities:  Laurels and Fritzingertown. 

Visitation to the Sick and Homebound

As a corporal work of mercy, St. John Bosco Parish offers pastoral visits to the sick, elderly, and homebound in homes, hospitals, and nursing facilities.

• Due to HIPAA privacy laws, facilities do not inform the parish of hospitalized members.

• Family members must contact the parish if a visit is requested.

📞 To arrange a visit, call the Parish Office at (570) 788-1997, ext. 3.
Please provide the person's name and contact information so the parish can follow up.

Anointing of the Sick

Parishioners who are undergoing a serious medical procedure or surgery should request this Sacrament of Healing from one of the priests beforehand.
