THURSDAY MASS TO REMAIN AT 8:45 AM DURING THE SUMMER
In previous years, when school is out for the summer the Thursday Mass time changed to 7 am during the week. This year, however, the Thursday Mass time will remain at 8:45 am during the summer months. If you have a Mass intention scheduled for a 7 am Mass on a Thursday, it will be moved to the 8:45 am time slot.
ST. FRANCIS DE SALES MASS
We have many elderly in their homes, nursing homes and places of assisted living who would love the chance to attend Mass...unfortunately, many do not get that opportunity. The next St. Francis de Sales Mass will be held July 15th at 11 am at Immaculate Conception Church! The program begins with praying the Rosary at 10:30 am, during which time Confessions are also held. Anointing of the Sick is also given at the end of the Mass. A pot luck lunch and music will follow the Mass.
We need your help to reach out and provide transportation for your family members and friends who cannot make it on their own. If you have any questions, please call Bill Chrostowski at 715-830-9371 or Sue Gallagher at 715-836-9507.
75th Jubilee
75 Years as a Parish!
In 2020, we celebrate 75 years as a Parish. We are beginning to plan and organize for a year-long celebration.
The Parish Council needs your assistance to make this 75th Jubilee meaningful and successful. See the attachment for the various committees that are being formed, and the sign-up sheet to get involved.
Many hands make light work... and hopefully many great Parish memories!

Facebook & YouTube
Immaculate Conception Parish has a Facebook page! Check it out at www.facebook.com/iccatholicchurch. You can get information on upcoming events, Mass times and special intention listings, a weekly roster for lectors, servers and Communion ministers and special announcements. In its first four years, the Facebook page has nearly 750 "likes" and has thousands more following it from across the nation and around the world!
Immaculate Conception Parish also has its own YouTube channel! We record one Mass every regular weekend and more often if it is a holiday season, such as Christmas or Easter. You can go to the YouTube main page and type in the search box "Immaculate Conception Catholic Parish Eau Claire" to be taken to the IC YouTube page and view the Masses there. The Masses are also downloaded onto this main website under the "Mass Video/Audio" tab and on our Facebook page, whose address is listed above.
FOR THE HEARING IMPAIRED
For those attending Mass at Immaculate Conception Church that may be hearing impaired, the church's audio/video system has the capability to enhance the audio for those wearing hearing aids. For better audio reception during Mass, please activate the T-Coil setting on your hearing aid. Also available are receivers that can pick up the audio signal. These are similar to a Walkman radio in that a person can put on the headphones, turn on the receiver and be able to listen to the audio of the Mass. If you are interested in using one of the receivers during Mass, please let one of the ushers know and they can get you a receiver to use.
WEDNESDAY EVENING ADORATION
Wednesday evening Adoration is the THIRD Wednesday of the month! Our next Third Wednesday Holy Hour will be held June 19th from 5:30 pm to 6:30 pm. Please join us as we thank God for His many blessings and pray for His continued care for our families, our parish and the Universal Church.
