Our Priests, Deacons, Nuns and RE teachers have helped our children to understand their faith. With the CYO programs, our three children have been able to practice, literally and spiritually, what has been preached. We have been involved in the CYO programs offered at Our Lady of the Lake over the past five years and have spent many hours in the Gym practicing and competing. The girls have learned great lessons along the way as well as made many long lasting friendships. These experiences have given our family memories that will last a lifetime...(read more)

When we heard about the Capital Campaign and were asked to participate, we knew we wanted to maximize our gift and looked for ways to do this. A company-matching gift seemed like a great way to contribute more than we could have with our own re-sources. It was very easy to process this through Human Resources at David's company and found out they would match up to $5,000 annually. Spreading our gift out over several years also helped us to make a more sizable contribution. Please consider these options and help our parish reach it's Building in Faith goal...(read more)

Donating this vehicle to Our Lady of the Lake was an easy choice and an easy solution to getting rid of the extra car in our driveway. It may have taken us weeks to sell my father's old car, not to mention the hassle of running an ad and showing the car to prospective buyers. Just one phone call and...(read more)
It is a blessing to serve as a cantor through the Our Lady of the Lake Music Ministry. I have always found music, especially singing, to be one of the richest ways to express my faith. As a cantor, I hope to encourage everyone to "make a beautiful noise" and enrich our experience as a community celebrating the Mass together.
The music ministry at OLL has been tucked into the basement of the parish hall for many years...(read more)
