Images from the church

Welcome to Immaculate Conception Roman Catholic Church in Berwick, Pennsylvania, affectionately known as "St. Mary's." Our mission is to proclaim the Gospel of Jesus Christ to our community and to the whole world. We strive to witness to the truth with love, revealed by Christ and handed down through every age by the Catholic Church.

"All power in heaven and on earth has been given to me. Go, therefore, and make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Spirit, teaching them to observe all that I have commanded you. And behold, I am with you always, until the end of the age."
Matthew 28:18-20
