Children of God
is one of our most successful ministries. Begun by OLL parishioner Allan Rubio in 2000, this ministry has helped more than a thousand Guatemalan girls obtain an education that they would not have had access to. Many have returned home to become the first teachers in their villages. Kathleen DeRubio (below) continues the ministry in the memory of her dear husband, Allan. The Children of God ministry has made a positive difference in many Guatemalan lives! Please consider supporting this ministry. For more information, contact Kathleen DeRubio at childrenofgodguate@gmail.com or 919.656.1512. Below are some photos from the school and the girls living facility in Chichicastenango, Guatemala.

I understand that Father Bob Schriber, former Parochial Vicar at OLL, is recovering very well from extensive heart surgery. Very good to hear!
