The Sesson on the 18th will cover Chapter 22.
If you are interested in knowing more about the Catholic Faith, in checking up on what you learned back in Catholic Schools or CCD, this is a chance to join fellow parishioners in the give and take of discussing the faith. While we are on Chapter 21 for this session, the construction of the Catholic Catechism for Adults is such that it can be started with any chapter. Each one stands alone.
UPDATING PARISH FILES: We are currently updating our files. If you are attending the Immaculate Conception Church and have never filled out a census form, or the status or configuration of your family has changed, would you please fill one out and leave it at the Rectory or put it in the collection basket. Census forms are located at the entrances of the Church. You can also download a version from this webpage by going to this LOCATION. When done, please drop the form off in a collection basket or at the rectory.
PARISH ENVELOPES: If you are receiving two sets of parish envelopes and would like to just receive one--perhaps addressed to Mr and Mrs, please call the rectory at (978) 458-1474. Please leave your name, address and envelope numbers. Please allow at least one month for the change.
PARISH IMPROVEMENTS: The Parish recently took delivery of pews which were offered to us free of charge by the former St Louis de France Parish. Those pews are now stored in the downstairs of our Church. Please feel free to sit in one and see how you like it.
The pews became available after St Louis de France consolidated with another parish in Lowell. The plan is to replace the chairs in the crypt church with the pews. This will include moving the present altar further back toward the curtains, allowing more space.
After Easter we hope to receive the Stations of the Cross from St Louis de France Parish; another generous gift from that parish. The Stations will be placed in our downstairs church.
DAY OF SILENCE AND PRAYER: The Franciscan Center, 459 River Road, Andover, is holding a retreat on Saturday, 9 February, from 9:00 AM to 3:00 PM. the cost is $35, which covers breakfast and lunch and other costs. Please call the Center at (978) 851-3391 to register.
BIBLE SHARING: The Holy Family Parish is holding a Study of Saint Paul's Letter to the Colossians on Mondays, from 7:00 PM to 8:30 PM, starting on 28 January 2008. The address of the Holy Family Parish Center is 122 Andrews Street, here in Lowell.
EUCHARISTIC ADORATION: The Lowell District of the Nocturnal Adoration Society sponsors Eucharistic Adoration at Holy Trinity Church, on High Street, on the first Friday of each month. The makeup time is 8:00 PM to 9:00 PM. Mr Paul H Monette is the Chairman.
The Immaculate Conception Pastoral Team works with a Parish Council. Our Parish Council meets the 3rd Thursday of each month, at 7:00 pm or as required by our Pastor.
Our Parish is part of the Archdiocese of Boston.
The Immaculate Conception Parish was at one time teamed, within what was then the Lowell Collaborative, with Saint Joseph's (Lithuanian) Parish, on Rogers Street. In 1999 it was decided to merge Saint Joseph's with the Immaculate and now Saint Joseph's has been closed and all Masses are held at the Immaculate.
