Father John Acri was named the first pastor and led the new parish until May of 1980. Father Patrick Devine was appointed the second pastor and led the infant parish to its maturity until June, 1994, when Monsignor Richard A. Youtz became the third pastor.

In 1982, Bishop Keeler dedicated the rectory. A new additional to the original church building was dedicated by Bishop Nicholas Dattilo on October 7, 1990.

During these years, the parish became involved in many ecumenical undertakings, and on April 1, 1990, signed a covenant with St. Peter's Lutheran Church. The parish has continued to grow in faith and in its service to its people and community. Statues of the Blessed Virgin and St. John Neumann, created by the sculptor Jay Hall of the National Cathedral in Washington, D.C., were blessed by Father Devine on October 10, 1993. A library dedicated for the use of the parish family was blessed on April 2, 1995. In twenty-five years, the parish has more than doubled in size to over 2,400 families.

The parish is blessed with the presence of the Dominican Monastery of the Lititz Pike. We also have three religious vocations. Dominican Sister Margaret O'Neill of Adrian, Michigan, daughter of Robert and Kitty O'Neill, took her final vows on June 1, 1996. Reverend Michael Letter, son of Charles and Margaret Letter, Jr., was ordained for the Diocese of Harrisburg on May 18, 1996. Mercy Sister Joan Henkel of Dallas, Pennsylvania, daughter of Loretta Henkel and the late Donald Henkel, took her final vows in August, 1996.
