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.
