Registration Closes Monday - Sign your kids up NOW!
VBS Volunteers have a Prep Session Tuesday, July 13 at 9:00 a.m.
A Family of Faith is for ALL families - kids in grades K-12, Catholic School, Public School, Homeschooled - Everyone is encouraged and invited!
As parents and children engage in discussion about what they are learning, spiritual curiosity is awakened and families desire to deepen in their understanding. Each month parents have the opportunity to choose from a variety of activities and discussion that they can do as a family to explore the concepts that are taught in each lesson. Younger children might learn through the experience of coloring one of the beautiful illustrations while older children might meditate on the Scripture.
Already many families and visitors have been enjoying the benefits of giving one-time and recurring gifts directly from the parish website. And our new online donations and payments system will help streamline CCD and youth ministry registrations by simply paying program fees within the same form as the registration. Simple, quick, and effective. Learn more and begin offering your gifts online at https://www.olgal.org/give.
