OLP Church News                   

The OLP Environment Committee invites you to participate in the creation of the OLP Family Christmas Tree.   We will be decorating the large tree in the church vestibule for the Christmas season with home-made doves, stars, and Christmas balls. To help make our tree beautiful and meaningful, we need you to make your own special ornament!

A simple instruction sheet and ornament patterns are available on the church website, www.olp.org. Just click on the Christmas tree icon on the home page for all the details.   There will also be a limited number of instruction sheets and patterns available in the church vestibule. There are also sample ornaments on the display in the vestibule for inspiration.

Drop off your finished ornament in the basket provided in the church vestibule by Friday, December 21st.

The OLP Family Christmas tree is not just for kids. Everyone is invited to contribute an ornament to help create a beautiful and meaningful Family Christmas tree! If you have any questions about this project, please contact Brian Kuzmin, Director of Liturgy and Music, through the church office.
