Before the suspension of public Masses, IMMACULATE CONCEPTION CHURCH has already begun its planned total interior renovation. Since March 7, we have celebrated Masses online.

After nearly 3 months of Livestream Masses,

we have formed a new family of ONLINE PARISHIONERS

from all over the world.

An idea came up that we raise funds towards the purchase of the new Confessor’s Chair and the Penitent’s Kneeler to mark this uncertain and darkest moment of the Coronavirus Pandemic with a memorial in our new church. It’s meaningful in a sense that the kneeler represents us as we plead for God’s mercy and grace and the confessor’s chair represents the embrace of God to each and every one of us.  

The amount to raise is $ 4,500.00. Please feel free donate any amount. Individual names will not be mentioned in the memorial plaque. However, it will be mentioned as “Memorial Gift from the Online Friends and Parishioners of Immaculate Conception Church during the Coronavirus Pandemic”

DIRECTIVES FOR RE-OPENING CHURCHES

My dear parishioners,

The Archdiocese of Newark has issued guidelines for the re-opening of churches in three phases.

​

Phase 1 - Churches may be opened solely for personal prayer during limited and designated hours beginning May 17, 2020.

Phase 2 - Churches will be permitted to celebrate public Masses on weekdays as well as funerals.

Phase 3 - Churches will be permitted to celebrate public Masses on Sundays. Date to be determined.

I regret that we cannot participate in the re-opening of churches in both phases 1 & 2 until further notice due to the following:

Phase 1 – Our temporary chapel is not accessible for the time being because of the church renovation.

Phase 2 – It is in the guidelines of the archdiocese that weekday Masses are only permitted in churches not chapels.

Please feel free to go to churches around our area should you need to visit the Blessed Sacrament and pray.

Meanwhile, I will continue celebrating daily Masses at 9AM and Adoration of the Blessed Sacrament with the Divine Mercy Chaplet and praying the Holy Rosary at 3PM online, live-streamed through our website.
