On behalf of Fr. Lukasz, Deacon Yohan and the entire staff, we wish you a very blessed New Year. As you celebrate the miracle of this special season, may your heart be filled with joy and peace. Msgr. Carroll

In the past 25 years the parking lots on both sides of Miller Rd. and behind the school have been expanded to accommodate the growing number of parishioners. If all the Catholics who attended Christmas Masses came every Sunday, we would have to expand them again. It’s only one hour a week to give to God and in return you get eternal life. Not a bad deal!

Thanks to a generous donation by a parishioner, we were able to install a loud speaker system, a new piano/organ and a new paschal candle in the Chapel. The final phase concerns the cracks in some of the pews and the broken kneelers. They are being repaired and recovered for $8,000 which is a bargain compared with the cost of replacement.

If your contact info has changed don’t forget to update us by emailing us at secy@olmchurch.org. If you think we don’t have your information, send it anyway.

Once in a while we are asked to help a parishioner who is either homebound or needs to be taken shopping or to the bank, etc. Usually it is a woman. If you would be interested in helping in this way, please let us know at the rectory. Of course, it would only be occasionally and at your convenience. Thank you!
