OLC LIFETEEN MISSION TRIP

On Sunday, July 12, through Friday, July 17, 2026, several of our youth and adult volunteers traveled to Wilkes-Barre, PA, for their annual Mission Trip sponsored by Catholic HEART Workcamp, a national Catholic youth service program.

Throughout the week, they completed projects such as painting, yard work, minor home repairs, and serving local community agencies. By day, they lent a helping hand to those in need, and by night, they gathered in prayer and fellowship, growing in the faith they share.

Thank you to those who kept our teens and the adults accompanying them in your prayers. Enjoy a few pictures!

Comfort & Peace of Mind for the Future

Due to rising maintenance costs, we anticipate a price increase for burial plots at both Our Lady of Seven Dolors and St. Malachi cemeteries. Planning ahead provides peace of mind and helps protect your family from future expenses.
Registered parishioners can secure their family's legacy within our church community while locking in the current lower rates by purchasing now.

To schedule an appointment to view available plot locations and discuss pricing options (including interest-free payment plans), please contact: Mary Beth Rohrer at the church rectory 610-857-3510 or [email protected].

We encourage interested parishioners to inquire soon to take advantage of current rates.
