New Daily Mass Schedule
Due to the fact that there are now three priests assigned to OLPH we will be expanding our daily Mass schedule to provide our community with greater opportunities to celebrate the Eucharist. These expanded times are only possible because of three assigned priests. If and when future assignments should leave us with only two priests our current schedule for daily Mass will be resumed.

Vespers–Year of St. Paul
As our Year of St. Paul comes to a close, we invite you to join us for Vespers evening prayer on June 29 at 7 p.m.
Come and experience this beautiful form of prayer!
Anointing of the Sick
This sacrament offers us the grace to strengthen our faith and our ability to accept and endure the trials and struggles that come with serious illness. On Sunday, July 12 following the 12:30 p.m. Mass, we will offer the Sacrament of the Anointing of the Sick. Though any parishioner is welcome to attend to pray for the sick, not all in attendance should receive the sacrament.

"Discovery Canyon" Vacation Bible School
It's almost time for our annual Vacation Bible School. This is a wonderful time of fellowship and learning for our children in a fun setting. We'll have games, activities and snacks. We are also in need of teen and adult helpers. For details and a registration form click here.
Warm Weather Reminder
During the hot summer months, it is understandable that one would dress in accordance to the temperature. However, when coming to Mass, modesty should always be practiced and the clothing worn should not cause a distraction to others. Halter tops, spaghetti strap or low-cut blouses/dresses are inappropriate modes of dress for Mass. Short should be knee length.
Parking
We remind you to practice safety and do not leave your valuables in your vehicle. Also, when parking in areas around the church do not block driveways. Be advised that tickets will be issued for any cars that are parked illegally and may be towed.

Pilgrim Chalice for Vocations
To foster prayers for vocations in the home, our parish has instituted a pilgrim chalice. The chalice, as you know, is the cup used at Mass that following the consecration contains the Most Precious Blood of our Lord Jesus Christ. On the first Sunday of every month, the pilgrim chalice is used at Mass and then presented to a family.
That family takes the chalice home and reverently displays it in a prominent place in the home for the entire month. Throughout the month, the family promises to pray together daily for vocations. On the first Sunday of the next month the family returns the chalice to the church where once again, it is used in the celebration of the Mass and presented to a new family.
If you are interested in hosting the pilgrim chalice, please call the parish office to be placed on the list. We will then work through this list, one family per month, as we unite as a parish family to pray for vocations to the priesthood and religious life!
Eucharistic Adoration
The Blessed Sacrament is exposed every Monday at
