It’s Time to Make the Dream Come True… For nearly two years now, we have been discussing the possibility of building an addition to the church that would include fully accessible restrooms, a gathering space where the present ramp is and a function hall with kitchenette extending out toward Main Street alongside the church. We conducted a formal feasibility study that indicates definite support for the project and willingness to contribute to a capital campaign to raise the money to build the facility. We have contracted with Coogan Associates to coordinate the campaign and with Jordan O’Connor, our architect, to develop conceptual drawings. Copies of these are posted in the church and will be printed in a publication that will be mailed to all households at the end of the summer. Some preliminary contacts have already produced an enthusiastic response which means that we will have a significant portion of what we need before we even begin the formal campaign to construct The Our Lady of the Angels Family Center as we prepare to close out the first century of our history as a parish. Parishioners are asked to watch the mail for a number of informational items that will be sent to every household in the coming weeks.

We, the parish community of Our Lady of the Angels, as part of the universal Catholic Church, are answering the call to love and serve one another in this ever changing world. Part of our call is to be a welcoming community of faith that is nourished and sustained through the mystery of the Holy Eucharist and guided by the Holy Spirit. Together, we are called and committed to be active witnesses of God’s presence among us by serving others in our parish as well as in the community at large, especially the poor. By continual proclamation of the Gospel and celebration of the Sacraments, we are dedicated to growth in knowledge and faith which will enable us to build a strong foundation for all peoples to experience life to the fullest as Jesus intends.
