Our Lady of Perpetual Help

We have visited this church a few times. Yet it gets really packed. I mean to the brim. If you arrive less than 15 minutes early for mass forget about finding parking. They need a parking garage, a bigger church and some police officers directing after church traffic. It takes a out 20 minutes just to get out of the lot this morning after a 630 am ash wednesday mass. Not the first time we have sat through traffic. OLPH has 5x more members than usual. There is also Catholic school attached to this church. The priests are nice and wonderful each time we visit.

I took a star away because of parking, seating and traffic.

I came in for their church festival. This is the 3^rd year I have attended. I have to say they have a wonderful set up for a successful festival. The 80 and 78 year old ladies I took had a really good time. They really enjoyed the food and the live music.

3 words… Trash to Treasure
Explanation: Every year, this church puts on a heck of a show. The fall festival and auction is top notch and the Trash to Treasure in the gymnasium is unbelievable. All year long, they collect goods and at Trash to Treasure, you can buy anything you have ever wanted for much less than even Goodwill.
The church holds financial sessions, marital sessions, has an in house counselor, and a fine staff.
I am partial to this place because it is where I got married. The process is long but it was so worth it. Their musical coordinator actually sang Ava Maria. It was very nice.
I love OLPH. They have a school for kids and a waiting list for daycare that you should get on now if you are even planning on having children.
