if you are a Lector, Children Liturgy of the Word Leader, Extraordinary Minister of Eucharist, or server and did not receive a schedule, please call the Parish Office.

Faith Formation at our Parish is mutli-faceted.  It includes Baptism preparation, Liturgy of the Word with Children, Vacation Bible School, Family-based sacramental preparations, Saturdya sessions for publich school (Gr. 1-2), faith Nights for all children in Grades 3-4, Junior youth Ministry (With St. Agnes and St. Elizabeth Ann Seton) for Grades 5-8, Senior Youth Ministry (With St. Agnes and St. Elizabeth Anne Seton) for Grades 9-12, and parish-sponsored Family Activities.

As most of you know, the IC150 Leadership Team at Immaculate Conception has been busy planning for our parish’s 150th anniversary in June of 2012. But your help is needed now as we assemble the history of our church in photos. Currently, we are specifically looking for photos from 1873 to 1927 (Fr. Michael Murphy to Fr. Edward Murphy), so please look through your attics, your photos albums that may have been passed down through your family, or any other photo resource you may have available to help build our collection.

But remember, though we’re currently targeting this 54-year period of our parish, we are still welcoming all photos of our church, parish activities, etc. for this important recognition. Please label each photo with your name, year the photo was taken (approximate, if you’re not sure) and a phone number where you can be reached for any questions. For Immaculate Conception parishioners, large envelopes are available in the narthex area of the church that you can use to submit your photos. All photos will be scanned and returned. Questions may be directed to John Javor (724-863-7071) or Rose Straley (724-864-4281). Your help is appreciated.

Please pray for the family of Andrew Sandor, Sr, who died recently.
