Faith Formation

Our Lady of Lourdes offers one-year sacramental preparation courses for most sacraments, including First Communion and Youth Confirmation. 

In order to participate in the sacramental preparation courses, children are expected to have had at least one year of faith-learning prior to enrollment.  Children should be at age-appropriate stages of their faith, such as: knowing basic prayers, attending weekly Mass, knowing main Bible stories and characters, and for older youth, having familiarity with the basic tenets of the faith.  If you are concerned that your child may need a little help catching up, be assured that there is a correct place for everyone, so don’t worry.

Please refer to the Sacramental Placement Flow Chart below to determine where to enroll. For further questions, contact Rebecca at rebecca@ollparish.org.

Adult Bible Studies

Are you hoping to dive into an entire Bible study series? Our Lady of Lourdes is here to help you. Our adult Bible study session covers dozens of different subjects with a powerful and faithful Christian perspective. Bible studies are a wonderful opportunity to join in fellowship with others and enrich one’s faith. 

Children's Liturgy

Children’s Liturgy of the Word is a celebration for the children of our parish. A time for children to learn more about God. Geared toward children ages 5-12, during Mass, we will proceed to the Chapel after the Opening Prayer and return in time to celebrate the Liturgy of the Eucharist with our families.

This offers a unique experience for children to hear the Scriptures in words they understand from the Children’s Lectionary, as well as to share their understanding of God’s word.

Sacramental Preparation

Preparing to receive the sacraments is a unique and spiritually enriching time in a person’s life. Our Lady of Lourdes has developed comprehensive programs to support all those involved in guiding young people on this faith journey.
