The Spotlight this week is on Walking With Moms in Need (WWMIN).
Trunk or Treat
was an OLL parish Halloween celebration held under our Bernadette Center where parishioners decorated their car trunks and children went from car to car to collect candy. Great response to a rainy forecast!

The 2025 Benefit for Life Gala was sponsored last week by a number of generous supporters including several OLL parishioners and the Diocese of Raleigh. The event raised funds for Birthchoice. The keynote speaker was Amy Ford, founder of Embrace Grace.

YOUTH NEWS
OLLS Kindergarten and 8th Grade Buddies created St. Michael Prayer Cards to go to the USO at the Raleigh-Durham Airport for our military service members to have. These accompanied the cookies that Our Lady of Lourdes church volunteers provide each week to the USO. Thank you to our students, faculty, staff and volunteers for this generous gift to our military members.
