Campus Ministry.

Faith Formation.

 

Our Lady of Lourdes offers children and families of all faiths a strong, supportive environment in which to nurture spiritual and character development.

Central to our curriculum is our religious instruction in which our students learn the truths and values of our Catholic faith. All students, regardless of religious affiliation or denomination, take religious instruction and attend all liturgy and prayer service. Students have the opportunity to help plan liturgy and to participate in various roles during Mass. Students participate in grade-level liturgies on a regular basis and in all-school liturgies on Holy Days of Obligation.                             

Special prayer services are held throughout the year and morning/afternoon prayer is a part of our daily PA announcements. Children are given the opportunity for reception of the Sacrament of Reconciliation twice a year.

Events that strengthen our faith and reinforce our commitment
of service to others include:

  • Daily prayer at the beginning and end of each day during announcements

  • Blessing of the Pets 

  • Stations of the Cross every Friday during Lent in the church, led by the eight grade class

  • Rosary every Friday during the month of October in the church, led by the eight grade class

  • Advent wreaths in each classroom during Advent

  • Advent giving projects 

  • Lenten service projects for all grades

  • Make A Difference Day 

  • School-wide retreats

  • Penance Service

  • Confirmation Retreat

  • Required service hours for middle school students

  • First Communion retreat 

  • NUT Day (which stands for No, Uniform, Today) Students may come to school out of uniform, on designated days, by bringing $1.00 to benefit a local charity.
