LENT 2020 – TUESDAY EVENING MASS: One of the ways we grow spiritually through the season of Lent is to increase attendance at daily Mass. Beginning on Tuesday, March 3, 2020, the first full week of Lent, Immaculate Conception will offer the celebration of Holy Mass at 6:15 p.m. on Tuesday evenings. All other Mass times except Tuesdays will remain the same. During Lent, we will NOT celebrate a Tuesday morning Mass. We are hoping to give our community of faith an opportunity to practice their Lenten observance by offering all parishioners this new Mass time.

SACRAMENT OF RECONCILIATION: Saturdays, 3-3:30 p.m. (Except Holy Saturday), Fridays, after the 8:30 a.m. Mass

EUCHARISTIC ADORATION: Perpetual Adoration is daily in the Adoration Chapel in the Education Center.

ALMSGIVING – OPERATION RICE BOWL Pray, Fast, Give – Be in Global Solidarity: Rice Bowl boxes are available at the doors of the Church. CRS Rice Bowl is Catholic Relief Services’ Lenten faithin-action program for families and faith communities. 75% of the Rice Bowl donations support CRS programs around the world, and 25%  goes to hunger and poverty alleviation efforts in our diocese. Once a week, parishioners fast or eat a simple meal and donate the savings to support CRS services. To learn how your donation affects the lives of others, visit the CRS website at www.crsricebowl.org.
