IC Spirit... Catch It!

ICM Church, Akron, Ohio

Welcome to Immaculate Conception Of Mary

Throughout over eight decades, Immaculate Conception Parish has sought to draw together Catholics in Kenmore around the Table of the Holy Eucharist as the focus and basis of ministry. Through prayer and action, we have sought to not only nurture and preserve the Ancient Faith that has come to us from the Apostles, but meet the challenges of evangelization in an era of a changing urban economy and population. Our active participation in the diocesan-wide Vibrant Parish Life initiative has affirmed our participation with St. Augustine Parish, Barberton, (begun in 2001) to expand and enhance shared ministry with worship, time, talent and treasure – and an increasing pooling of personnel, volunteers, facilities and programs toward our growing vibrancy in the celebration of the Sacraments of Faith and the Formation of Christians.

We join with Bishop Richard G. Lennon in the pioneering Vibrant Parish Life initiative to build an increasing effective experience of parish life through the Catholic Dioces of Cleveland.

Rev. Michael B. Smith, BA, MDiv, Pastor
