The Centennial of
Our Beautiful Church
The fire which devastated the original church on
February 1, 1928 in many ways defined us as a parish.
In the face of loss, the people of ICC remained resolute. They started a newsletter defiantly named "Blaze of Glory" which detailed their efforts to raise the funds to rebuild. On 25 March 1928 the campaign was declared a success! Although the formal rededication was not to occur until 22 September 1929 (after a lot of interior work and detailing was finished), March 1928 in some ways celebrates the day our Church was reborn!
​
How we as a parish family can celebrate this milestone?
​
If anyone, young or old, wishes to help Father Al Masluk brainstorm, with an eye to planning a worthy season of celebration, please e-mail him at fatheral@iccjenkintown.org, and plan to meet on Saturday morning 7 November at 10 AM in the rectory.
​
​
Father Al is assembling a booklet which will list all our ministries, describe their work and provide a way to contact leadership. He arrived at the following list of ministries: Altar Servers, Lectors, Special Ministers of the Eucharist, Ushers, Choir/Cantors/Music Ministry, Children's Christmas Choir, PREP Catechists, ICC Pre-School Volunteers and Board, Men's Prayer Group, Women's Scripture Study, Liturgy of the Word for Children, Social Sunday, Pro-Life group, Baptism Dinners at the Rectory, Ziti for the Needy, Scouts, the Bereavement Support group, Knights of Columbus, ECyD Youth group, Finance Council, Pastoral Council, St. John's Hospice Casseroles, and Social Sunday Volunteers.
​
Calling All Parish Ministry Group Leaders!
If you are the contact of any of these groups, please send Father Al a short description of your work and a contact e-mail. If he forgot your ministry, please do the same.
Please do this via e-mail by November 1 if possible. His email is fatheral@iccjenkintown.org. Many thanks!

New at our Preschool......
Baptism Suppers
Our newest members of the parish are celebrated at the monthly Baptism Suppers at the rectory. For families who have not attended a Baptism class, our priests host a dinner where they can answer the questions of the new parents and get to know them before the baptism of the baby. A 'presenting couple' is also there to add their experiences to the evening.
We are always looking for volunteer presenting couples. For more information contact the office: churchoffice@iccjenkintown.org
