Dear Brothers and Sisters in Christ,
I am pleased to announce that the Permanent Diaconate Program of the Archdiocese of Philadelphia has assigned Mr. Dennis Murphy in his internship this year to Our Lady of Consolation Parish. This internship, which begins this weekend, October 5-6, 2024 and concludes at Easter 2025, is a valuable and integral experience for a Permanent Deacon candidate. It provides the candidate with a “hands on” opportunity to learn and grow in his formation, as he shadows both the pastor and deacon in a parish to gain valuable knowledge and participates in the various aspects of our parish life. This preparation will serve him well as he continues forward towards ordination as a Permanent Deacon. We are blessed to have Dennis with us for this part of his formation journey and look forward to welcoming him here to our Parish Family. He will be with us for all Masses this weekend, so we will all have an opportunity to meet him and welcome him to OLC. Here is a brief bio that Dennis has provided: “My name is Dennis Murphy and I am in my fourth year of formation as a candidate for the Permanent Diaconate for the Archdiocese of Philadelphia. My wife Amy and I have been married for 29 years, have 4 children and are members of Sacred Heart Parish in Oxford. I have worked as an accountant in the insurance industry for the past 30 years and enjoy running, bike riding and photography. As part of my formation, I will be doing an internship at Our Lady of Consolation for the next 6 months. I look forward to learning about the spiritual, liturgical and social life of the parish and getting to know each of you during my internship. I am excited to immerse myself into the parish and join you on your mission of keeping the vibrant love of Jesus present in the world. I thank you for welcoming me into your community and pray this journey together will enable us to grow deeper in our faith and in the love of the Father.” Let us pray for Dennis and his wife Amy and family as he continues part of his formation journey with us here at Our Lady of Consolation.

Welcome! We look forward to meeting you and sharing our Catholic faith with your child!
Our Lady of Consolation's PREP (previously know as CCD) and LTJV is a faith formation program for our parish children in grades one through seven (1 - 7) who attend public or non-Catholic private schools. Our faith formation program encompasses preparation for all parish children, including those who are Home Schooled, to receive the sacraments of Reconciliation, Holy Eucharist and Confirmation. Registration and classes for the 2024 - 2025 academic year has begun. We ask that parents of each child register online (PREP - grades 1 thru 5, LTJV- grades 6 & 7) using the buttons below. Returning families and new families should register. One8/Confirmation Class parent should look for the registration form via email. Parents are encouraged to renew their own faith foundation by reviewing the grade level information with their children, praying with and for their children and participating in parish life as a family. Parents are expected to attend meetings for their children who are preparing for the reception of sacraments. For more information, please contact Janice Dagney at 610-857-0511 or email [email protected] |
