So, you are surfing the web, and you somehow got to our website. I can’t imagine this was an accident. I guess you are looking for something and I am sure God is somehow moving in your life to make you want to look. I have a feeling that you are here because you want to walk with Jesus in faith. Maybe you only want to take some tentative steps, or maybe you are ready to “drop your nets and follow Him” like the first disciples did.
At Our Lady of Consolation, we believe that if you want to walk with Jesus, wherever you are is a good place to begin! We want to walk with you in faith!
We all find ourselves at different places in our journeys of faith. Perhaps you are currently wrestling with some challenges in your life. Maybe your heart is a bit restless or perhaps you feel that you have so much to share of God’s love in your life with others. Wherever you maybe we here at Our Lady of Consolation are committed to accompanying you in your journey of faith. Our hope is that you will feel very welcomed and accompanied by our community as you deeply encounter Christ and His love. If visiting this website is your first time with us, I hope that you will be able to pay us a personal visit sometime soon. Join us for Sunday worship or explore the many opportunities for worship, fellowship or service.
Rooted in African-American Catholic history and tradition, Our Lady of Consolation parish celebrates the Living Word of God, embraces inclusiveness, and inspires social action. We offer as many opportunities for parishioners to come together and grow in faith as possible. If there is anything we can do to help you in your journey of faith, please do not hesitate to contact our clergy, parish office or any of our ministry leaders. Jesus said, “Whatever you do for the least of my brothers or sisters you do for me.” (Mt 25:40). We want to recognize him and make Him known in our loving service and works of mercy. Then we come together to celebrate His presence by listening to His Word and by breaking Bread in our Eucharistic celebrations. This is where we strengthen our heart-to-heart bond with Jesus and each other.
I pray you will find OLC to be truly your spiritual home, a place of spiritual and personal growth and most importantly a place of an encounter with Jesus.
