Immaculate Heart of Mary Catholic Church

Are you new to Immaculate Heart of Mary? We Welcome you! We are a very vibrant and active parish in Brentwood whose mission is, “With Mary, we seek to know Christ better and to make him better known through our words and actions.” We do this in a variety of ways through our several sacramental prep programs, social outreach, as well as our active ministries, Bible studies, and an energetic youth program. We also LOVE new parishioners. Even though we are unable at this time to gather for ministry meetings many of the ministries are finding ways to stay connected through Zoom. If you are not yet registered, please call the parish office at 925-634-4154 and ask for Ana. She will be happy to mail you a registration form or you can go on line and register at: ihmchurch@ihmbrentwood.com. Bishop’s Appeal Thank you for your generosity and support in the past to the “Bishop’s Appeal”. If you are financially able, please thoughtfully and prayerfully consider joining our efforts this year by making a gift or pledge of financial support. Jesus Christ promised us at His Ascension: “I will be with you all days until the end of the ages.” If Christ has helped you and your family, if He has been generous to you, will you consider sharing some of the blessings you have received with Christ and His Church? Although we call it “The Bishop’s Appeal,” it is really Christ’s appeal. Thank you in advance for your love and generosity. No gift is too small. Gracias por su generosidad y apoyo en el pasado al "Apelacion del Obispo". Si tiene la posibilidad de hacerlo, por fav or, considere en oración unirse a nuestros esfuerzos este año haciendo un regalo o promesa de apoyo financiero. Jesucristo nos prometió en su Ascensión: "Estaré con vosotros todos los días hasta el fin de los tiempos". Si Cristo le ha ayudado a usted y a su familia, si ha sido generoso con usted, ¿consideraría compartir algunas de las bendiciones que ha recibido con Cristo y su Iglesia? Aunque lo llamamos "Apelacion del Obispo", en realidad es la llamada de Cristo. Gracias de antemano por su amor y generosidad. No importa el tamano de la donacion. Thank You / Gracias We extend our gratitude for your devoted support of the Bishop’s Ministries Appeal. Let us work together to strengthen our church and community through our shared mission.

An Invitation to Serve from St. Vincent de Paul @

IHM

You all are aware St. Vincent de Paul at IHM has a food pantry, but many of you may not know the core work of our Society is assisting neighbors in need. For many the food helps, but some have other needs, which may require financial assistance. For these other needs, we go to the neighbor, meet them in their home and talk about their needs, making sure we fully understand. Not too different from a Eucharistic Minister going to a person’s home for spiritual needs. When we make a Home Visit, we always go in pairs, just as Jesus taught. There are many reasons for going in pairs, and we prefer the pair be a man and a woman, but they don’t have to be a “couple”. We all know men and women hear things differently. We really need more couples at our Conference to do this very important work. You may or may not have time every Friday, but Home Visits can be different days and times. Maybe one can come on Fridays but not the other, and that is fine. We have our General Meetings on Wednesday at 10:30, once a month, and really like all those doing our “work” to attend these meetings. If you are interested in finding out more about what we do, please let us know through our email svdpihmbrentwood@gmail.com. God Bless you all for your support of St. Vincent de Paul here at IHM. For the weekend of October 20, please bring mac and cheese. THANK YOU! For the weekend of October 27, please bring canned fruits. THANK YOU! +++ Para el fin de semana del 20 de octubre, por favor traigan macarrón con queso. GRACIAS! Para el fin de semana del 27 de octubre, porfavor traigan frutas enlatadas. GRACIAS!
