During this special time between Easter and Pentecost, we read from the Acts of the Apostles and celebrate the beginnings of the Church. The readings from Acts highlight the work of the early church. The ministries here at OLPH continue this work by building community, sharing talent and time, spreading the Good News of Jesus and bringing joy to others.
During the six Sundays between Easter and Pentecost, we will celebrate the joy of ministry work at OLPH! The idea to celebrate ministry work emerged from the Parish Transformation Initiative as a way to cultivate a community of faith that welcomes and engages all people. The ministries here at OLPH embody the work of the Apostles and the JOY of the Gospel by creating a connection to God, Church and community.
“They devoted themselves to the teaching of the apostles and to the communal life, to the breaking of bread and to the prayers” [Acts 2:42].
