What do I do to make the Church a community where everyone feels welcomed and understood, everyone feels the mercy and love of God who renews life?
- Pope Francis, General Audience, May 29, 2013
Each of us can make our parish a more welcoming place to new-comers, persons with disabilities, and persons with special needs. Here are a few ideas: If you see a parent struggling with a child’s behavior, offer a
friendly smile, a sympathetic nod, or a helping hand. If you see a person physically struggling to get in, hold open a
door, scoot down in the pew, or offer to carry something. If you see someone exhibiting unusual behavior, understand that it
might be a sign of a disability. Embrace the person as a child of God and understand that each of us has different ways of receiving and communicating God’s love.
If you see someone who is disheveled or out of sorts, consider that he or she might be in dire straits. Act with compassion.
Some people may struggle to get to or sit through the Mass. Offer a ride, an open door, or simply acceptance and understanding.
A warm smile, a nod, or a small kindness can make all the difference.
“Amen I say to you, whatever you did for one of these least brothers of mine, you did for me.”
— Matthew 25:40

RCIA - Rite of Christian Initiation of Adults 2019-2020 FALL ENROLLMENT
Are you thinking about joining the Catholic Church or learning more about it? Ask yourself these questions:
• Where is your journey of faith leading you? • Are you interested in knowing more about the Catholic Faith? • Do you know someone who might be interested?
If so, come and see what the RCIA process is all about. The Right of Christian Initiation of Adults (RCIA) is a process for non-Catholics who are interested in (or even thinking about) joining the Catholic Church. It’s also for those who have not received all of their Sacraments. Each year our parish begins this process to welcome any and all who are curious about, interested in, or just want to know more about the Christian faith as it is lived and celebrated in the Roman Catholic Tradition.
ENROLLMENT BEGINS: June 3, 2019
PROCESS BEGINS: September 11, 2019
REGISTRATION FORM: A downloadable form is available at https://ollvchurch.org/becoming-catholic or in the Parish Office. Once you have filled out the registration form, Contact Julia Dodson at 702-802-2300.
As the Mother of God, the Virgin Mary has a unique position among the saints, indeed, among all creatures. She is exalted, yet still one of us. Redeemed by reason of the merits of her Son and united to Him by a close and indissoluble tie, she is endowed with the high office and dignity of being the Mother of the Son of God, by which account she is also the beloved daughter of the Father and the temple of the Holy Spirit. Because of this gift of sublime grace she far surpasses all creatures, both in heaven and on earth. At the same time, however, because she belongs to the offspring of Adam she is one with all those who are to be saved. (Lumen Gentium, no. 53)
Mary embraces God's will and freely chooses to cooperate with God's grace, thereby fulfilling a crucial role in God's plan of salvation. Throughout the centuries, the Church has turned to the Blessed Virgin in order to come closer to Christ. Many forms of piety toward the Mother of God developed that help bring us closer to her Son. In these devotions to Mary, "while the Mother is honored, the Son, through whom all things have their being and in whom it has pleased the Father that all fullness should dwell, is rightly known, loved and glorified and . . . all His commands are observed." The Church honors her as the Mother of God, looks to her as a model of perfect discipleship, and asks for her prayers to God on our behalf. — http://usccb.org/prayer-and-worship/prayers-and-devotions/mary/index.cfm
