Three articles this week.
The OLL Bounty Garden
got a lot of attention over a recent seven day period. First there was the maintenance and sprucing up during the 1Day4Him. (Photos below)
One week later there was the Dedication of the Lourdes Bounty Garden Fence
The Memorial Fence was given in loving memory of Marie Ward Stirling by her sons, Aaron and Adam Wintrich and her sister and brother-in-law Ginger Ward-Presson and David Presson.

OLL parishioners were very well represented in the large turnout for the
Annual Life Chain
on Sunday afternoon, October 6 on Lake Boone Trail. They were making the point that ALL life matters, especially the most vulnerable among us! Children, youth, adults and seniors expressed their convictions prayerfully in the hope that God will enable us to create a more humane, caring society that does not prey on the weak.
Hilltop Home,
one of the ministries supported by our parishioners during 1Day4Him, provides a home for medically-complex children who have severe or profound developmental disabilities and require specialized 24-hour care. Parishioner Megan Lumley directed our event staff, which was comprised of Team Outside, who cleaned up the building exterior and planted shrubs, and Team Inside, who made crafts with the children and hosted a dance party for them. All involved had a great time making fall wreaths and hanging out together. Hilltop Home is a 501(c)3 organization and would welcome your support.
