        • Searching for Meaning, Purpose & Faith...?


          Are you searching for meaning, purpose and faith? Do you want to learn more about Jesus and his church? Have you been baptized, but never received your other sacraments?

          RCIA* is a process designed to help lead you through the inquiry process through initiation into the Catholic faith. The group meets once a week to talk about the faith, ask questions and learn how it connects to everyday life. It's a journey. The leaders will walk with you as you decide if you're ready to take the next step and be a full member of the Church. All are welcome....come as you are!!

          Classes are meeting Sunday evenings ​from 6:00 pm to 7:15 pm in the Immaculate Conception Church Hall. Meeting topics ​through the end of the year are listed under Events, with the filter Faith Formation.

          If you're interested, reach out to Monique Claverie at moniquenalex@gmail.com

          The annual Catholic Appeal is an invitation for every Catholic family to answer with a generous heart Jesus' call to make his love alive in the world. Every gift to the Catholic Appeal unifies our diocese as a missionary Church as we carry out the important work that Jesus calls us to live by:

          • ministering to those in need
          • supporting the spiritual growth of every member of our community
          • educating the next generation
          • supporting the ongoing formation of our priests
          • evangelization and stewardship of those we seek to serve and inspire throughout our diocese and beyond

          We invite you to support the annual Catholic Appeal with a generous heart by making a gift today. Your support has an extraordinary impact on the life of the Church and its ability to touch, heal, serve, and bring hope to the thousands of lives in our diocese and across our state.

          Envelopes will be provided in the pews the weekend of May 17th/18th.  You can can also go online to donate at:  Portland Diocese Online Giving.  

          More information on the ministries supported by the appeal is also available at:  Portland Diocese Ministries Supported by the Appeal.

          • The parishioners who opened their homes to visitors from away and those who contributed air beds, cots and even a camper.
          • Natalia Brady for the delicious cakes

        • Men's Prayer Group Meeting Wednesdays

          Join us for the Men's Prayer Group every Wednesday at 5:00 pm in the Immaculate Conception Church Parish Hall beginning March 19th.

          The group will gather weekly for a Gospel Reflection and prayer. Each week, the group will look ahead to the coming week's scripture readings, reflect on the Gospel, explore parts of the Mass and Catechism, and pray for the group's intentions.  Meetings will be no longer than an hour, usually less.

          This is a casual, come-as-you-are gathering where all men are invited. Whether you're just starting to learn more about the Mass and our faith, or you’ve been walking this journey for years, we need YOU to help get this started.

      • Easter Vigil 2025

        • The Easter Vigil Mass begins with the blessing of the fire and the preparation and lighting of the paschal candle.  

          Altar servers help spread the light as the priest, deacon and congregation process into the church.

          This service of light is followed by the proclamation of the Exsultet, the Liturgy of the Word, the Baptismal Liturgy and the Liturgy of the Eucharist.

          The video of the service of light was provided by Silk Alderette.

        • Prayer for our Parish

          Lord,
          St. Kateri Tekakwitha Parish is composed of people like me.
          It is I who help make it what it is.
          It will be friendly, if I am.
          It will be holy, if I am.
          Its pews will be filled, if I help fill them.
          It will do great work, if I work.
          It will be prayerful, if I pray.
          It will be generous for good causes, if I am a generous giver.
          It will bring people together for worship and fellowship, if I invite and bring them.
          It will be a parish of loyalty and love, of fearlessness and faith, if I am filled with these same qualities in myself.
          Therefore, Lord, give me the grace to dedicate myself to being everything I want St. Kateri Tekakwitha Parish, my parish, to be.
          We ask this through Christ our Lord.
          Amen.
