A MESSAGE FROM FATHER RICH
A Day of Celebration and of Gratitude I want to thank Archbishop Carlson and my brother priests for being here to celebrate this wondrous occasion of our 150th Anniversary with all of us. I would also like to express my deepest gratitude to those on the committee who worked so diligently on the arrangements for this celebration. So much preparation went into this event, so many talents shared. It would not have been accomplished without them, their work has been invaluable. I would also like to express my thanks to the Knights of Columbus for the use of their hall for the reception today. And thank you, Immaculate Conception parishioners, for your generous donations and your presence sharing this very special day!
Keep in your prayers those who have gone before us to build this community, this church. I ask that we continue to pray for our fellow parishioners and all our endeavors as we continue to share the Gospel and spread the Word.
Happy Anniversary and God Bless,
~ Father Rich

OUT AND ABOUT
DEACON NEAL’S REFLECTION CORNER
I'd like to thank everyone who called in to the Covenant Network radio-thon when I was there last Monday. Your donations helped make it the most successful hour of the day.
Catholic radio is a strong instrument that we can use to know our faith better and to have a closer relationship to Christ and his Church. If you haven't tried listening to Catholic radio 1460 am, I encourage you to give it a try.
Two of my favorite shows are Called to Communion, on at 1:00 pm and Catholic Answers at 5:00 pm. If you have questions, they've got answers. We need to know our faith so that we can live the life that we've been called to do. Bring Christ's message of love to the world.
Please give it a try and thanks again to those who were able to support Covenant Network.
God Bless
Deacon Neal
