IC welcomed new pastor, Fr. Matt, on June 29, 2022. His first bulletin message is below:

Greetings Good Souls: My heart is overflowing with joy and gratitude. What at incredible privilege and honor it is to serve as your new shepherd. I promise each and everyone of you that I will always do my best ... with God’s help.

I look forward to getting to know this community, each one of you, and to become familiar and immersed into all of her awesome ministries ... one day at a time. I wish to thank the extraordinary Fr. Don Antweiler, for his incredibly generous help and guidance. Fr. Don vested me at my ordination! I can also let you know that Sr. Laura Magowan and I go back some 30 years with our mutual love and dedication to Centering Prayer. I am also delighted to share in the leadership of our beloved community with Fr. Tony, the four exceptional Deacons, and a very talented and dedicated staff.

Everyone I spoke to in the recent past about Immaculate Conception, (laity, religious, priests and nuns) all told me the same thing, “Immaculate Conception is a wonderful Parish!”

I feel very blessed to be here. God is good.Let us hold one another in prayer my dear friends.

Pax Christi,

Fr. Matt
