OLL Faith Formation

Come out to see the new materials on Sunday, February 1 from 10:30-11:30 during bagels in Pollard Hall and on Monday, February 2 from 8:30-2:30 in the faith formation office. You can also call for an appointment. We'd appreciate all feedback.

Our retreat will now take place on Saturday, February 21 from 9AM-12noon. Please continue to keep our families in your prayers as the children prepare for the Sacrament of First Reconciliation.

Due to the weather, we will not hold classes today. Stay safe!

Due to unsafe weather conditions, we are postponing the retreat. We will have a make up information available later in the week.

Please pray for our 41 children preparing for the sacrament of First Reconciliation and their families.

The new year kicks off with our family faith session at 6PM on January 4. Our topic is vocations. Please join us for 5PM Mass.

The "W" in Christmas

Each December, I vowed to make Christmas a calm and
peaceful experience.

I had cut back on nonessential obligations - extensive
card writing,
endless baking, decorating, and even overspending.

Yet still, I found myself exhausted, unable to appreciate the

precious family moments, and of course, the true meaning
of Christmas.

My son, Nicholas, was in kindergarten that year. It was an
exciting season for a six year old.

For weeks, he'd been memorizing songs for his school's
"Winter Pageant."

Please meet in the church

On Saturday afternoon, our second graders will begin their preparation process for First Reconciliation. We have a special family retreat day planned for them with a guest presentation by Ray Boswell also knows as the Potter. At the conclusion of the retreat day, we will attend Mass together. During the Mass, the children will experience a special Rite of Enrollment ceremony to begin their journey of sacrament preparation. Please keep these childen and their families in your prayers.

Welcome to the new year of the Church! The first Sunday of Advent marks the beginning of the new liturgical year.
