Friday, March 13, 2020 / 8:00 p.m.

The following is taken from the letter from Bishop Steven J. Raica regarding the Coronavirus.  Please go to the diocesan website to view the entire article.   dioceseofgaylord.org

From Saturday, March 14 through Monday, April 6, 2020, all Sunday and weekday public Masses are suspended throughout the Diocese of Gaylord. Although public Masses are temporarily suspended, the Holy Sacrifice of the Mass is available through the various media channels for television, radio, internet, and social media. An optimal moment to make a Spiritual Communion is at the time Mass is celebrated each day. The Sacrifice of the Mass remains efficacious and a grace-filled moment. I ask every priest to celebrate Mass in private for the intentions already determined for your parish, for those who are affected by the pandemic, for those in the medical community treating patients and for wisdom in our scientific community.

In his letter to the faithful of the Archdiocese of Detroit, Archbishop Allen Vigneron, our Metropolitan, suggested this prayer as a model to make a spiritual communion:

My Jesus, I believe that you are present in the Most Holy Sacrament.
I love you above all things and I desire to receive you in my soul.
Since I cannot at this moment receive you sacramentally,
Come at least spiritually into my heart.
I embrace you as if you were already there
And unite myself wholly to you.
Never permit me to be separated from you.
Amen.

Immaculate Conception Parish is initiating a NEW 12:15 pm Mass Every Thursday. This Mass is for people who cannot typically make morning mass. This is the ultimate power lunch for working men and women, it is designed to easily have folks back to work (or whatever) by 1:00 pm.  All Are Welcome!!

Something New For Your App If you have the myParish app on your cell phone, you may notice a temporary background change for the Lent and Easter seasons. It is a beautiful background of the Holy Cross and again it is just temporary. Another feature that will be found on your app is called Lenten Reflections. It will be found under the icon called Inspire Daily. Remember there are so many features on your app and they are easy to use. No matter what kind of smart phone you own, it is easy to download if you do not already have the app. If you have any questions, please contact either Sue Korson or Sherrie Clutts at the parish office.

Thank you to all our parishioners who have made their gift to the 2019 Catholic Services Appeal. We are moving steadily toward our goal. If you have not yet made a gift or pledge, it is not too late to help us meet and even exceed our target. Please pick up your CSA card in the vestibule this weekend and make your pledge with one of our CSA volunteers.
