Anytime by calling the parish office for an appointment.

BAPTISMS: Presenting a child for Baptism is a serious

obligation and requires a faith commitment on the part of the parents

and godparents. This commitment is exemplified by being a practicing,

active Catholic. Parents are obligated to attend a preparation session

before a child’s baptism if they have not attended one in the past

five years. Sessions are held at 1:15 p.m. on second Sundays of

January, March, May, July, September and November, in the Parish

Activity Center. Baptisms are at 1:15 p.m. on the third Sunday of

each month.

WEDDINGS: Please phone the parish office to set-up an

appointment with a priest, in order to begin the sacramental

preparation. Only after this initial meeting and assessment can a date

be set for the wedding. The process requires at least 6 months.

COUNSELING SERVICES: Offered by Bob Skipper at

Spiritual Center of Maria Stein 1-937-299-9005.

NEW PARISHIONERS ARE WELCOME Please come to the parish office to register. If you have a change of

address, phone number or email, please inform the parish office.

ELEVENTH SUNDAY IN ORDINARY TIME, JUNE 17, 2018

This weekend we welcome the Marianist

Community for our annual Mission Appeal. The

Marianists have been serving the poorest of the

poor in India and Eastern Africa for decades.

Through education, job training and empowerment

programs, they help people lift themselves out of

desperate poverty and into lives of hope. Each

year, they serve more than 12,000 people —

mostly children and women — through Partnering

with the Poor programs. There will be a second

collection after communion for their efforts. Your

generosity is appreciated.

Happy Father’s Day!! A father is a man who loves without cost to

his children and tries to raise them to be fully

human creatures with the abilities to make a

difference in our world. Some fathers are

successful, some are not. However, almost all try

their best. This Father's Day, let your dad know

that you appreciate all his efforts.

Strength--Your strength in helping me to

tell right from wrong was a great gift.

Honor--You taught me that to honor myself

was a way to honor the God who made me.

Faith--Thanks Dad for having faith in me,

when I was not sure I had faith in myself.

Love--You loved me even when I did not

love myself. For that I am grateful.

Office Closed

Please note that the Parish Office will be

closed Wednesday, June 20, 2018 for our annual

Staff Retreat Day. We are grateful for our

dedicated and faith filled staff and welcome this

opportunity to be renewed.

Festival Meeting There will be a Festival meeting on

Thursday, June 21 at 7:00 p.m. in the PAC, Room

103. This meeting is for current and past booth

chairmen, steering committee members, and

festival grounds folks. One of the topics to be

discussed will be 2019 festival scheduling.

Legacies and bequests help continue the

faith. Please remember Immaculate Conception

Parish in your will and expressions of sympathy.

Children’s Tent

Please drop off clean, new or gently used

stuffed animals to the parish office for the

I.C. Festival Children’s Tent. Small toys

from Kid’s Meals etc. are also greatly

appreciated. If you would like to work in

the Children’s Tent, please call Karen 419-

586-7675.

Auction Items & Help

We are now accepting items for our festival

auction: new and/or clean, quality used items in

working order! Items may be dropped off in the breeze

way (between the parish office & garage). Please, NO

computers, artificial Christmas trees, white goods,

console stereos or TVs, entertainment centers, or used

building materials.

On Wednesday nights June 27, July 11 and 18,

from 6:30–8:00 p.m., we will be at the school to help you

unload items or are available to pick up large items!!

Call the Parish Office at 419-586-6648 to schedule pick

ups. We would appreciate any help with sorting,

moving and testing items (great for those needing

service hours), and we could use occasional help with

picking up items. Please call Jeff Schott, 419-305-9203,

or Lisa Schott, 419-234-5748, to help.

Items Needed Keep in mind the summer Parish Garage

Sale. Good sellers are kitchenware, linens (please

mark for size), toys, bake ware, decorator items,

tools, sporting goods etc.

We do not accept clothing, personal care

items, hardback books, Christmas trees, bowling

balls, computer related equipment or out-dated

electronics. We will be collecting on June 20, 27 and

July 11. We will accept items at the Parish Activity

Center from 6:30-8:00 p.m. As always, we need lots of

help on those dates.

Last Minute Gift Cards For Father’s Day If you need a last minute gift for Dad, he

would be so excited to get a gift card for Father’s

Day, especially to Ace Hardware, Menard’s,

Dunham’s, Family Video etc. Perhaps you would

rather choose the gift for him, so you could purchase

Amazon, American Eagle, GAP/Old Navy/Banana

Republic, JC Penney, Kohl’s, Macy’s, Marshalls, or

Walmart, and use it to buy his gift. If you like to

take Dad out to eat, purchase a gift card for a local or

Lima area restaurant that is Dad’s favorite. We

have lots of gift cards in stock for immediate

purchase in the vestibule of the Church after all

weekend Masses.

Save Money On Gas With gas prices on the rise, Walmart is a

great place to buy gas – you get 3 cents off a gallon

when you use a Walmart gift card! It has to be a

physical card though, not a paper one. Of course, we

always keep those cards in stock for $25, $50, or

$100, and they are available at the rectory during

the week, or in the vestibule of the church after all

weekend Masses. $250 cards are able to be ordered.

Save NOW!!!

Parish Landscaping Thank You! A big thanks to Zuma Automotive Repair for

use of their tractor and to parishioners who helped in
