Karen Greco

Director of Religious Education

The OLC Religious Education program offers two options during the course of the year.  Children entering grades one through eight may participate in either the three-week summer program which typically begins the Monday after the last day of public school or the fall/winter session which runs from mid-September through the end of March.

Each program contains the basic studies of Catholicism, such as the Commandments, prayers, the Liturgical year, and the Sacraments, and also extends to the meaning of leading a Christian life as a follower of Christ.  To be a Christian is to share the life of Jesus and through the Ten Commandments (the gifts of guidance), we focus on stewardship with the classroom. 

Through our Religious Education Outreach, we focus on many collections of food, clothing, or school supplies for example, to help those in need.  As part of our stewardship way of life, and in the course of these efforts, we will instill in our children that we are all responsible for the well being of each other.

Through the many teachings of Jesus and working as a Christian community, we will continue to teach our children to seek the values practiced by Christ.
