To the Advent Morning of Recollection, this Saturday, Dec. 1!
8:30 AM Mass begins our time together, followed by a light breakfast and a conference by Fr. John Higgins On Becoming Fire!
This will be a wonderful opportunity to spend a morning of fellowship, prayer, adoration, discussion and reflection, as we prepare for the start of Advent. Please spread the word to family and friends as well.
Kindly contact Maria at the Immaculate Conception office in order to reserve your place. You may reach her via email at secretary@icaparish.org or call her at 961-3643.
Looking forward to seeing you on Saturday!
