This sacred image speaks of Immaculate Conception to the people of our parish dedicated to God through Mary for 150 years, even before this present church building was constructed.

Esta imagen sagrada habla de la Inmaculada Concepción a la gente de nuestra parroquia dedicada a Dios a través de Maria por 150 años, aun antes de que el edificio actual se hubiese construido.



We extend a  special thank you  to Mt. Mercy student Emily Speight for creating the design of this logo.

Sesquicentennial Mission statement

We remember with grateful hearts what God has done for us; what we have done for each other and what we have tried to do for the larger Church, as well as being disciples to the world. We celebrate who we are today so as to increase our vitality, the life of Christ within us. We re-commit to our future full of hope for the path God will have for us. This celebration expresses both our thanks as we have walked with God for these past 150 years and our faith as we look to the future.
