You and your family are invited to a two day Lenten misson on Sunday, February 22nd, 2026 - Monday, February 23rd, 2026 at Immaculate Conception Church.


The One Experience is not just another parish event—it’s a two-night experience that reaches the heart of what so many Catholics are missing: a personal, relatable, and hope-filled connection to their faith. Led by nationally recognized Catholic speaker and author Greg Wasinski, this event speaks directly to the everyday struggles of real people and reminds them that they are seen, known, and loved by God. With no tickets required and a welcoming environment for all, The One offers something truly different—an invitation to come as you are and leave transformed.


This is different. This is personal. And it’s exactly what our Church needs right now

GREG WASINSKI

Presenter


Greg Wasinski has quickly become one of the freshest and compelling voices in the church to help others find faith in the real world while once again understanding the beauty of why they believe what they believe.


Greg is an internationally recognized, Catholic Christian Inspirational Speaker and Author. He also offers his radio talents as a daily contributor to SiriusXM Radio’s The Catholic Channel with his “Faith & Real Life Moments.” It is his ability to make faith attainable to all those in attendance is second to none. Greg’s message of faith and real life is delivered in such a genuine and direct style it makes people desire a deeper relationship with God. Ultimately, it’s his passion to meet his audience where they are on their faith journey which makes him an asset to every parish community that seeks to open the hearts of their congregation; allowing Pastors, church staff and ministry leaders to continue quality faith formation.


As successful, career driven, business executive searching for lifelong fulfillment, Greg heard a direct calling from God to move his talents into full-time ministry. He draws from real life experiences, scriptural reflection and specific “God instances” to creatively illustrate how God is at work in all of us at all times. His sincere and unmistakable, conviction of faith guides him as he offers a message of hope to audiences of all ages and sizes.


Greg’s goals remain to nurture those around him with positive influence in order to be the “difference makers” that can change the world.
