ICC Fellowship
New this summer:
Fellowship time at Immaculate Conception following Sunday Masses beginning June 26th! Snacks and spring water will be provided! If you would like to volunteer to bake something, please notify Teresa or the parish office by Monday, June 20. All are welcome!
Patriotic Rosary
A Patriotic Rosary will be recited following the 8:00am Mass (approximately 8:35am) at St. Joseph Church, 31 Oak Street, Winsted, on Monday, July 4th. The Rosary includes a Hail Mary for each state, a brief prayer after each decade attributed to one of our forefathers, followed by a patriotic hymn. Let us join in prayer to ask Mary, our country’s Patroness, for her intercession for our nation to have good moral leadership in these difficult times.
Come Watch The Chosen!
Join us on Mondays this summer to watch season one of The Chosen!
The series brings the story of Jesus and His disciples to life in an exciting and engaging way, and you will experience the message of the Gospel like never before!
We will begin July 11th; episodes will start at 5:30 with the option to participate in a group discussion after.
This event is family-friendly, though we ask that attendees under 18 be accompanied by an adult. Feel free to bring food for yourself or to share!
The offertory collection is counted Monday mornings at the Parish office; this process usually takes an hour to an hour and a half. If you are interested in joining the team, please call the parish office!

Bereavement Ministry Needs You!
Our Lady of Hope Parish needs compassionate friends who want to offer comfort to help their fellow parishioners who are dealing with overwhelming grief by reaching out to them throughout the first year of their loss, with correspondence and/or phone calls and through ongoing prayers for them and for the repose of the souls of their departed loved ones.
If you’ve experienced the loss of loved ones, you are aware of the pain that takes hold of those left behind. Please prayerfully consider helping to bring hope to our grieving parishioners who are mourning the loss of loved ones who have been called to their new life in heaven, through the resurrection of Jesus.
For more information, or to join our Parish Bereavement Ministry, please contact Connie Burzinske at 860-496-0708, or by email at cburzins@aol.com.
Support Two Hearts Pregnancy Center!
Our annual "Bottle Drive" will also be held from Mother's Day to Father's Day- simply pick up a baby bottle from the front of either church, fill with change, and return it to the church!
