Welcome to Immaculate Conception ParishLinks to Online Giving and PaymentsThe Season of Lent is Here!On March 5, 2025 -- Ash Wednesday -- the Season of Lent began. Lent is the period of forty days in which the Church prepares for Holy Week and Easter. Since the fourth century, it has been observed as a time of penance and renewal for the whole Church, with fasting and abstinence.
“By the solemn forty days of Lent the Church unites herself each year to the mystery of Jesus in the desert.” (Catechism of the Catholic Church, 540) The Church gives us the example of Christ in the desert, so that with him we can prepare for the celebration of the Passion of the Lord and Easter by purifying our hearts, taking our Christian life more seriously, and practicing penance.

2025: Read the Bible in a YearThis is a three-readings per day system of reading the Bible in the course of a year (i.e., read all three in a row, or read, perhaps one in the morning, one midday, and one at a night)
This is a one-reading per day system of reading the Bible consecutively by Book. Usually -- though not always -- all from one Book, on any given day. Sometimes there are multiple reading based on related content. This is the connection to the online "Bible in a Year" Podcast. This is the registration and information page for that very popular Podcast -- it can be listened to online (on Mac or PC) or on your mobile device. About Our ParishEstablished in 1914, Immaculate Conception Parish is located in Caroline County, Maryland in the town of Marydel, just over the state line from Delaware. The current Church building was built in 1918, and was expanded in the 1980s. The parish has a religious education program, a St. Vincent de Paul Society, a Knights of Columbus Council and a very large Hispanic Ministry program. In 2013, Immaculate Conception Parish was "twinned" with Holy Cross Parish in Dover, Delaware. In 2018, we celebrate the 100th Anniversary of our Church building.
