Parish Mission

February 26-28, 2012

What is a Parish Mission? It is a chance for us to come together as a faith community, along with a guest speaker, for inspiration, prayer and reflection. The Lenten Parish Mission will be held February 26-28.

Father John Cusick will lead this year's Lenten Mission as we consider the question, "What does it mean to be fully alive?" You are invited to spend one hour each day for three sessions and focus on Christ's call and invitation to us.

February 26 at 3:00 p.m., February 27-28 at 7:30 p.m.

Spiritual Formation

Becoming a Catholic: RCIA

Christ Renews His Parish (CRHP)

All of our commitments, including our commitment to Christ, need continual renewal. CRHP (pronounced "chirp") offers men and women the opportunity to take a break from their everyday lives for one weekend. During the weekend, participants will experience prayer, Scripture insights, Reconciliation, Eucharist and Christian community.

Little Rock Scripture Study

Little Rock is a scripture study which introduces Catholics to a deeper understanding of the Bible. The study meets in small groups of 8-12 people with a facilitator and co-facilitator at the head. The groups meet at various times throughout the week and in various locations.

The next session of the Little Rock Scripture Study will begin in the Fall of 2012.

Contact Penny P. at 847.657.1655 for more information,

Men's Spirituality is geared toward male parishioners who have school-aged children. All are welcome to join in conversation and reflection. This group meets on the second Saturday of each month from 7:30 am to 9 am in the Flavin Room. For more information contact Bill H.

The Micah Committee

The Micah committee works to foster unity, celebrate diversity and overcome the attitudes and prejudices that keep people apart. We take our mantra from the prophet Micah: to act justly, love tenderly and walk humbly with our God. We always welcome new members.

Among the activities of the Micah Committee are:

  • Attending Archdiocesan retreats focused on Racism and Ethnic Sensitivity.
  • Hosting the Festival of Cultures Celebration at OLPH in November.

Contact Sandy at 847.724.3806 for more information.

Renew Faith-Sharing Groups

The RENEW Faith-Sharing groups gather weekly during the six weeks of Lent and for six weeks each Fall. Each ninety minute session is spent reading and discussing the coming weekend’s Mass readings. The groups are composed of a variety of people from many parts of the OLPH community with diverse backgrounds who all have an interest in reflecting upon and sharing their own faith experience.
