Immaculate Conception Parish is an Apostolate of the Priestly Fraternity of St. Peter (FSSP) in the Diocese of Colorado Springs. Thus, the Parish uses the liturgical books that were in force in 1962. All parochial Sacraments are available according to the "Extraordinary" form of the Roman Rite, or the Traditional/Tridentine Latin Mass. These rights are granted to the members of the FSSP as well as to other priests staying in the houses of the Fraternity or exercising their sacred ministry in the churches of the Fraternity.
If you wish to participate in the Christmas Carol Choir to sing carols 1/2 hour before the Midnight Mass on Christmas Eve, please come to rehearsal after the 10:30 a.m. Mass (at around 12:30 p.m.) for the next two Sundays. It is not too late to join if you missed the first practice.
The Feast of Our Lady of Guadalupe is the patronal feast of our diocese. It is a First Class Feast, and there will be an additional Low Mass scheduled on that day at 6:00 pm. It is not a holy day of obligation.
There will be a candle-lit Sung Mass in honor of Our Blessed Mother in the Advent Season at 6:00 a.m. on Saturday, December 15th. There will be no 8:00 a.m. Mass on this day.
There will be a Day of Recollection all day, beginning with 8:00 a.m. Mass on Saturday, December 22nd. This day will be in complete silence so as to prepare for the true meaning of Christmas.
