Advent Parish Mission at St. Mary Immaculate

Make time for Christ. A parish mission is a time of listening to God's word, remembering what Christ has done and re-energizing our true selves.

This year's St. Mary Immaculate Parish Mission (15629 S. Rt. 59 in Plainfield) will be presented by Fr. George Knab, OMI. The services will include preaching, prayer, song and ritual that open human hearts to the workings of the Holy Spirit.

On December 4th & 5th, Fr. Knab will preach at all weekend St. Mary Immaculate Parish masses. On Monday, Dec. 6, at 7:00pm, Fr. Knab will lead an "Evening of Prayer and Rosary." The Sacrament of Penance will also be available.
