1. Saint Mary of the Dormition Byzantine Catholic Church Bell and Marker
This bell from the former St. Mary of the Dormition Byzantine Catholic Church, Hanover Section of Nanticoke, Pa. is dedicated to all those parishioners of St. Mary Church who so graciously became members of St. John the Baptist Church upon the closing of their parish church.
May it serve as a remembrance of all the good associated with St. Mary Church and remind all of us of the dedication and love of God of those parishioners and their ancestors.
Erected by Saint John the Baptist Byzantine Catholic Parish.
