Local Churches to Close
St. Thomas the Apostle Church, Little Meadows, Pa.

St. Thomas the Apostle Church in Little Meadows, Pa will close by 2010.

St. Joseph Church, St. Joseph, Pa.    St. Thomas the Apostle Church in Little Meadows, Pa., and St. Joseph Church (pictured at right) in St. Joseph, Pa., will close and the parishes consolidate with St. Francis Xavier Church in Friendsville. Pa., no later than July 2010.
   Similar closings were announced throughout the Scranton Diocese January 31 and February 1 via recorded messages from Bishop Martino played at weekend Masses.
   Reasons for the closings included population changes, diminishing financial resources, many Catholics not practicing their faith, and priests serving too many parishes at one time.
