On Monday, October 1, beginning at 7pm, @ Saint Mary’s, Closter in the Fr. Roger Troy Church Hall our Deanery (All 7 Parishes) will be having an informative / exploratory discussion on our Parish Faith Formation Ministries – particularly on the benefits of Family Based Religious Education vs. the traditional classroom model.

Immaculate Conception Church is blessed with so many people who give generously of their time, talent and treasure. We could not fulfill our mission without dedicated volunteers like you. A good number of our parishioners are regular members of the various ministries, committees and councils of our parish. But there are also many of you who occasionally come and step up to the plate when needed. You too are our partners in ministry!
As a Parish Family we would like to invite all regular and occasional volunteers to join us as we celebrate our partners in ministry at the Volunteer Appreciation Dinner on
Saturday, November 10th
following the 5:00 PM Mass in Church Hall.
Personal and individual invitations, with RSVP cards will be sent in order to include everyone who in one way or another has offered to volunteer their time, talent and treasure in service to our church and whose identity is not known to us.
We need to know the number of those coming for preparation purposes.
Please drop RSVP cards in collection basket or in the parish office
on or before date Friday, November 2.
We assure everyone that we will have a great evening together.
