Histoire administrative
In 1905 Father Pierre Hutu, OMI, was put in charge of organizing a parish in East Edmonton. After a year of preparation the parish of Immaculate Conception was blessed by Bishop Emile Legal on December 9, 1906. Originally, it was a bilingual parish serving both the Anglophone and Francophone population of East Edmonton, however In 1912 with the establishment of Sacred Heart parish as an Anglophone parish, Immaculate Conception became an the French Parish for the East Edmonton area.
In 1950, the church was renovated and a new rectory was built. Stain glasses windows were blessed by Archbishop Anthony Jordan, OMI in 1964.
Due to a decline in the French population in the City of Edmonton the need for multiple French parishes dwindled. Finally in 2001 Immaculate Conception Parish was closed and was amalgamated with Saint-Thomas-d’Aquin Parish, on the south side of Edmonton. The last mass celebrated at the parish was on January 21, 2001. Shortly thereafter the church was purchased by the Vietnamese Catholic Community in 2001. The Casavant organ that was in the church was moved to Saint-Thomas-d’Aquin Parish in 2002.
