Guidelines for Mass
Masses: Daily: Monday-Thursday 8:30 am. Saturday: 5 pm. Sunday: 7:30 am, 9 am, and 11 am.
"While it is true that illness, infirmity or truly serious reasons may impede and therefore always dispense us of our obligation to come to Church for Mass, any casual absence from Mass without serious reason carries the burden of a willful sin against God and neighbor and must be brought to Confession as soon as possible." ~ Bishop Libasci
We, the Roman Catholic community of the Immaculate Conception Parish,
strive to love and trust God completely and unconditionally.
We evangelize with compassion, continue the works of Jesus Christ,
and welcome all who seek Him.
