Welcome to Saint Mary of the Assumption Byzantine Catholic Church located in Wilkes Barre, Pennsylvania.
The Head of our Church is Jesus Christ. We are Byzantine Catholics, an Eastern Catholic Church, in communion with the Pope of Rome. Please join us in worship today where you can experience the fullness of liturgy. A place where all the senses are engaged during worship. The sight of the church interior which is filled with the beauty and decor that serves as a sacred ornament of worship. Hearing the Word of God recited with beautiful liturgical chant. The sounds of the cantor and congregation united in singing in monodic chant called "Prostopinije" by the Carpatho-Ruthenian people or Plain Chant in English. The smell of the aromatic incense which is burned as a sacrifice offering and represent the prayers of the faithful rising up to God. And so much more; yet too numerous to simply list because the best way to learn about it is to experience it in person. Come and See today!
