Immaculate Conception Traditional Roman Catholic Church

Traditional Roman Catholic Church

The clergy and parishioners of Immaculate Conception adhere firmly to the unchangeable Catholic Faith as taught by all true Popes, from St. Peter to Pope Pius XII. Because of our faithfulness to Holy Mother Church and the true Catholic Popes of the ages, we reject the new modernist counterfeit religion/church of Vatican II with all its teachings, liturgical rites, and disciplines.

 

Because these teachings, liturgical rites, and disciplines contain heresy contrary to what the Catholic Church has consistently taught for 2,000 years, we arrive at the only logical conclusion: that the following men are illegitimate usurpers of the papal office and do not, and cannot, possess papal authority nor be guided by the Holy Ghost in matters of faith and morals.

 

John XXIII, Paul VI, John Paul I, John Paul II, Benedict XVI, Francis I, and Leo XIV

…for an understanding of the present crisis in the Church, and how we are striving to preserve the true Catholic Faith in these troubling times.

We gladly welcome visitors and newcomers!

At the same time, we respectfully remind them that to receive Our Lord in Holy Communion, one must be:

➤  A baptized Catholic in the state of grace free from mortal sin. 

 

 

 

 

➤  Modestly dressed according to Catholic Standards.

➤  Women must wear a chapel veil (1 Cor. 11:5).

 

 

➤  Fasting for 3 hours from any food or alcoholic beverage.

➤  1 hour from any other beverage except water.

 

 

➤  Exclusively attending a Traditional (i.e. Sedevacantist) Mass center.

➤  The communicant does NOT say “Amen”.

Those who wish to petition the sacraments here should understand that regular attendance at the SSPX, FSSP, or any diocesan “Latin Mass” authorized under the 1984 indult (commonly referred to as the “Extraordinary Form”) would represent a real contradiction in belief and practice.

These groups publicly acknowledge Leo XIV as “the Vicar of Christ”, yet at the same time they feel compelled to reject his “authority”.

This position is not only dishonest, but it is clearly contradictory to the Faith.

If you have any further questions, please contact one of our priests.

- Sacraments and Other Information -

Baptism

  • Please contact the pastor. Children should be baptized as soon as possible after birth. Adults are required to have a sufficient knowledge of the Faith before they can receive Baptism.

 

  • Reminder: Novus Ordo and non-practicing Catholics cannot serve as godparents, since they lack the intention of seeing to the traditional Catholic upbringing of children.

 

First Holy Communion

  • Held annually. See above for the conditions of proper reception.

 

Penance (Confession)

  • Confessions are heard upon request and as listed in the bulletin.

 

Confirmation

  • Administered annually when Bishop Pivarunas visits, usually in late May. The Catholic faithful are reminded of their obligation to receive this sacrament if they are not yet confirmed.

 

Matrimony

  • For members of the parish only. Please contact the pastor at least six months before the wedding date.
  • The best man and maid of honor should be Catholics, since they are the official witnesses to the Sacrament of Matrimony.

 

Extreme Unction

  • If anyone is in danger of death, please call a priest immediately.
  • It is most fitting that the sick or infirm receive the sacraments of Confession, Holy Communion, and Extreme Unction at the first signs of serious illness or any life-threatening condition—not delayed until the moment of death.

 

Catechism Classes

  • Catechism classes for new parishioners are done on request. Please speak with the pastor. Sunday catechism classes for children and adults throughout the year are listed in the weekly bulletin.

 

Easter Duty and Catholic Burial

  • Every Catholic is bound to receive Holy Communion at least once each year during the Easter season. Those who neglect this obligation without a serious reason commit a grave sin.
  • Failure to fulfill the Easter Duty is a sign of having abandoned the practice of the faith, and such persons forfeit the right to a Catholic funeral and burial.

 

Stipends

  • Stipends are not payment for spiritual benefits received but are an offering of support for the priest who performs a sacramental rite or ceremony.
  • The customary stipends are as follows: Weddings – $100, Baptisms – $25.

Mass Intentions

 

The customary stipend for a Mass offered for your intentions is $25.
Mass intention envelopes are available in the vestibule and may be submitted in the slot on the left of the vestibule counter.

You must make sure to write clearly!

Please Note:

  • It is the priest’s sacred privilege to apply the spiritual fruits of the Mass he offers.
  • A priest incurs a strict obligation in justice to celebrate Mass according to the intention of the donor ONLY when he accepts the submitted stipend.
  • Simply submitting an intention does not bind the priest. He may return the stipend to the requester if he sees fit.
  • Please be aware that the backlog for Masses may extend up to three months, and many Mass intentions are sent to our other priests to be offered.
 
 

Guidelines for Submitting Mass Intentions

  1. Masses for the Living
  • Masses for living non-Catholics or excommunicated Catholics are offered primarily for their conversion.
  • Such intentions are usually listed as private intentions.
  1. Masses for the Deceased
  • Masses cannot be offered for those who were not baptized.
  • Masses may not be offered publicly for deceased persons who:
      • were baptized non-Catholics, or
      • were denied a Catholic burial, such as:
          • those who requested cremation,
          • those who committed suicide, or
          • those who failed to fulfill their Easter Duty.

 

Important Reminder

All Mass intention envelopes must include the name of the donor.
This ensures the priest can contact you if clarification is needed.
If you wish your name to remain private, simply note “donor anonymous” on the envelope.
