Brooklyn Bishop Robert Brennan led a 100th anniversary celebration over the weekend of December 8: more than 900 people packed the pews of Immaculate Conception Church in Jamaica, Queens, honoring the century since the Passionists bought the land and the stately mansion on it.
They would use that property for the community’s first-ever Mass, as well as for the rectory and monastery before getting their actual church.
During the modern-day celebration, parishioners honored their patroness by bringing flowers to a statue of the Blessed Mother.
Bishop Brennan also blessed some newly renovated classrooms.
