OLF Window Project
We have received approval from the diocese on June 29, 2021 to begin fundraising to replace the church windows.
The total cost of the project is estimated to be $250,000 with a tentative date for the project to be completed next summer.
An outline of the project will be posted in the church soon along with a sample of the new windows.
If you wish to make a donation before the formal fundraising campaign rolls out, please include a note stating that the donation is for the windows project.
Thank you and watch for future updates!

Prayer during an Epidemic
Lord Jesus, Hear our pleas, our Good shepherd and Divine physician. We implore your mercy in the wake of an outbreak of serious illness and disease. Guide our efforts to prevent contagion and meek preparations to care for those most vulnerable. Assist all professionals and volunteers who work to eradicate the epidemic now spreading. May our actions be marked by your steadfast love and selfless service and never by panic or fear. Bestow your comfort and healing to the sick, sustain and strengthen them by your grace. May they know your closeness as they carry the cross of illness. And may all who have been called from this life come to worship you eternally with all the saints as you grant consolation and peace to their mourners. Amen. Holy Mary, Health of the sick, pray for us. St. Joseph, hope of the sick, pray for us. St. Rocco, protector against epidemic, pray for us.

My Jesus, I believe that you are present in the most holy Eucharist. I love you above all things, and I desire to receive you into my soul. Since I cannot at this moment receive you sacramentally, come at least spiritually into my heart. I embrace you as if you were already there and unite myself wholly to you. Never permit me to be separated from you. Amen.
