Congratulations to Lillian!!

We are so proud of our own Lillian O'Donnell, who is honored for collecting used cell phones to support women in need. Thanks to you, too, who have donated your old phones!

Parishioner Lillian O’Donnell of the Immaculate Conception church of Malden has collected more than 2,000 no-longer-used cell phones to donate to Verizon Wireless’ HopeLine program in the past ten years. HopeLine recycles used cell phones, batteries and accessories in any condition and uses the funds generated to donate phones, airtime and funding to domestic violence agencies throughout the United States. O’Donnell accepts phone donations at the parish year-round with a dedicated push for contributions during the Lenten Season. Pictured here (left to right) are Mike Murphy, public relations manager for Verizon Wireless New England and O’Donnell.

It's Souper Bowl Sunday!!

This weekend at all the Masses, our wonderful young people will be collecting donations (financial and food-al!) for the Souper Bowl of Caring! This nationwide collection has been happening in churches since 1990. It's unique in that the money collected in a church stays local- no funds are sent to the SBOC organization. Instead, groups and churches choose a local organization and donate what they collect to them. No middle-man!
Our Youth Ministry has been participating in the SBOC for at least 10 years, and each year they proudly support I.C.'s Helping Hands ministry, which helps the Bread of Life soup kitchen here in Malden. Please give what you can! One dollar makes a difference!
