WELCOME TO IHM!
Immaculate Heart of Mary Parish warmly and cordially welcomes you in the Holy Name of Jesus Christ, our Divine Lord and Savior. We proudly profess our Roman Catholic Faith, confident in the promise of Our Lord at the Ascension (Mt. 28:20): “. . .Behold I am with you all days even unto the consummation of the world.” Read about the Greatest Story Ever Told in the New Testament, especially in the Acts of the Apostles. What happened then happens now (Acts 2:42): “And they devoted themselves to the apostles’ teachings and fellowship, to the breaking of the bread, and the prayers.” “The apostles’ teachings” are summed up in the official Catechism of the Catholic Church. Join us at the Holy Sacrifice of the Mass (“the breaking of the bread”), offered daily on our altar at the Lord’s command, in prayer, in study of the Faith, in our fellowship, and in service to all in our community.
We aim to live in the love and joy of Christ and bring that love and joy to others. I testify that there are many fine families, children, and adults in this parish. Read more about us on our website. Visitors are always welcome. If you are at Mass, I would be glad to meet you personally. Those interested in learning more about the Catholic Faith are encouraged to contact our RCIA director.
Catholics who are new to the Parish, are invited to go to our registration page and register with us.
Yours in the Immaculate Heart of Mary,
Fr. Mark G Mazza, Pastor -
Reflections From Fr mark Mazza
“If Victory comes it will be brought by Mary” - Saint John Paul II.
“’Be not afraid’ Christ said to his apostles (cf. Luke 24:36) and to the women (cf. Matthew 28:10) after the Resurrection. According to the Gospels, these words were not addressed to Mary. Strong in her faith, she had no fear. Mary’s participation in the victory of Christ became clear to me above all from the experience of my people. .... Read more... -

I have been crucified with Christ; it is no longer I who live, but Christ who lives in me; and the life I now live in the flesh I live by faith in the Son of God, who loved me and gave Himself for me.
