About Our Website

The Diocese of Scranton website has a new look and new features. It has been redesigned so that you can easily navigate and find information on the Diocese and its mission to promote the Gospel of Jesus Christ. Please take note of the links on the homepage:

Departments and Resources is an index that lists not only departments, but also topics. The sections that are currently highlighted have content; the others are under construction.

News and Information takes you to the pages for CTV, The Catholic Light newspaper and recent news releases. You can view the most recent issues of the Light, just as they look in print. All future issues will be presented and then electronically archived here.

Newsletter Sign-up offers the opportunity to subscribe to News Briefing, a new electronic newsletter that will be sent directly to your email. There is no cost to receive the newsletter, which will be published in between issues of The Catholic Light.

Contact provides the general address and phone number for the Diocese. Each department page will contain contact information for that particular department.

You Should Know is a section for special reports and information. It will provide educational content on key topical issues. Current topics are Bioethics (Stem Cells, Cloning, etc.) and Finances of the Diocese.

Search will give you options when you enter key words or phrases.

The open area below the Mission Statement will highlight breaking news, statements and pastoral letters from the Bishop, and other recent information.

We hope you find our website to be a valuable resource. New material is being added virtually every day. Please visit us often!
