Featured Ministry Profile:
Hospitality Ministry
The Hospitality Ministry at Immaculate Conception is designed to support the various “events” in the Parish. Our aim is to provide refreshments to assist in making the event a welcoming experience and to build community. Individuals, families or groups can help with baking, cooking, purchasing beverages or other items and set-up or clean-up for events.
Coffee (Social) Hours are generally scheduled for the 2nd and 4th Sundays each month, September through June, after the 8:30 and 10:30am Masses. Groups sign up for these but are assisted by the Hospitality Team.
Funeral Receptions after Funeral Masses are offered, when requested by the family. Operating as “The Martha Ministry’, we provide these receptions (paid for by the family).
Other special events supported often include receptions after the Easter Vigil, Luncheon or supper on certain feast days such as Immaculate Conception. Light Refreshments are made available before and after presentations made by various staff and other speakers. Refreshments are offered when dignitaries such as Bishop Matano visit.
Everyone is invited to assist in the “events” in whatever capacity that best fits their time and talents. This Ministry is an easy way to meet people in the Parish, provides an opportunity to keep in touch with friends and the time [email protected]
ments is very flexible to fit individual schedules.
