_______________________________________________ Parish Mission Statement: We as the Catholic Christian Community of Immaculate Conception, Secaucus, in the Archdiocese of Newark, proclaim to be a Eucharistic Community, guided by the Spirit to proclaim the Good News of Jesus Christ, as we journey by sacraments and service through love and compassion, to evangelize, to celebrate our diversity and to meet the challenge of our responsibility as disciples of the Lord Jesus.
Abortion and Child Abuse Abortion teaches us that violence is an acceptable way to deal with difficult life problems. It teaches us that human beings are only valuable if they meet certain criteria, and it teaches us that the strong have a legal right to kill the weak and defenseless. When the unique value of individual human life is trampled upon, society inevitable suffers. Abortion advocates argue just the opposite. They purport that aborting “unwanted” children will reduce child abuse, neglect, poverty and violence and will generally lead to happier families. However, our experience since 1973 proves that this theory does not work. During that time, over 60 million “unwanted” babies have been denied the right to live, yet we have more crime, more violence, more dead-beat dads, and more gangs. Abortion advocates even argue that abortion is an effective way to prevent crime since it eliminates those who are “most likely” to commit crimes, more specifically the babies of poor mothers. Dianne Glass wrote an article supporting this radical idea. It is hard to believe that in this age, people could argue that human beings should be executed for crimes they may commit in the future and that abortion is the answer to solving poverty. Indeed, it is truly a frightening social policy! In the final analysis, it is only logical to conclude that societies who are willing to abort children before birth will be far more likely to abuse them after birth. Abortion is child abuse, and it is the most severe form of abuse in existence. “I believe that life is valuble, even when it is unwanted, even when it is physicall imperfect. I believe our society has a responsibility to defend the vulnerable and the weak. And I believe our nation should set a goal that unborn children should be welcomed in life and protected in law.” - President George W. Bush ___________________________________________ HELP NEEDED! We are looking for help from families to help plan the Parish Picnic. The Parish Picnic is held in June as a way for our parish family of ICC to celebrate mass and enjoy a day of fun together. If you would like to help plan the parish picnic or have any questions, please contact Youth and Family Minister, Dana McStowe at [email protected]

The 2020 Annual Appeal has begun. By now, you may have received a letter from Cardinal Tobin inviting you to make a gift to the Appeal. You are encouraged to look it over and prayerfully consider making a pledge. In the coming weeks, there will be a special collection for the Annual Appeal. Thank you for your support.”
(Matthew 4:22) Just as Jesus called the first apostles, He calls each of us to follow Him, too. Not everyone is called to leave their business or family behind, but we are expected to put God first in everything. Everything from our time in daily prayer, our talent in participating in one of our parish ministries and our treasure to support the financial needs of our parish mission.
The Super Bowl is nothing compared to the Super Marriage relationship you can have after learning the tools for communication on a Worldwide Marriage Encounter Weekend. For more information go to website www.wwme.org or call Mike and Janet Turco at 973-427-7016 or 609-335-6880 or email [email protected].
I would like to take a moment to thank everyone who helped make our Comedy Night another success. Our Brother Knights, Chairman Sal Manente, and most of all the people of the Parish for their continued support. It was an enjoyable night of laughs, fun and food! As a result of all your efforts, we can
continue to contribute to the fight against autism and in addition provide financial support to the Special Olympics.
