On November 25th 2007, The Diocese of Scranton closed three of the churches formerly associated with the Blossburg Area Catholic Community. These churches were St. Andrew’s (1841), St Joseph’s (1890), and St Stanislaus (1899). The fourth church, St. Mary Our Lady of Czestochowa (1874) was suppressed as a Polish Ethnic Parish and has become the territorial church for Catholics living in the greater Blossburg Area (Arnot, Covington, Liberty, and Morris Run). The new parish formed on that day is Saint John Neumann.
"The new parish is located at 138 St. Mary's Street, Blossburg (formerly St. Mary's Parish). The Parish Office has been consolidated and is now located at 38 Central Avenue, Wellsboro. St. John Neumann's Parish also maintains St. Andrew's and St. Mary's Cemeteries in Blossburg and St. Joseph's Cemetery in Morris Run. |
