Immaculate Conception Parish recently issued the following announcement.
Message from Father John
Dear Parish Family,
Recently I have been feeling discomfort in my abdominal area and sought out medical attention. The tests and scans revealed that I have pancreatic cancer and tumors on my liver. Because of a blood clot near the intestines, I was admitted to the hospital to address the blood clot. This will be the first step toward treatment, and God willing, a cure!!
I need your prayers…
Remember it is times like these that Saints are forged, so let’s become Saints and stay safe in the Lord.
Suggestion – 3pm Divine Mercy chaplet!
Your loving Shepherd,
Father John
