“Thank a Police Officer” Day 2026

September 19th is Thank a Police Officer Day. All September, OSLC will be collecting snacks to show appreciation to our local law enforcement personnel. Please consider donating the following; Granola bars, energy drinks, individual bags of trail mix, bottle water, chocolate and hard candy, and gatorade.

Migrant Ministry

Next Mission Trip is being planned for September

OSLC is joining with St. Pius X Migrant Ministry Mission in supporting the farm workers on the Eastern Shore. St. Pius X Catholic Church started their Migrant Ministry in 2011 with the mission of providing support to over 2,000 farm workers who migrate to the eastern shore each year to work the fields and harvest tomatoes that are sold in our grocery stores. We ask for your help in collecting items to donate during upcoming mission trips. We are looking for:

Mens Sneakers in size 8 - 10 (new or gently used)

Donations can be placed in the labeled box in the Narthex.

Your donations will help the workers stay protected from the hard conditions of their labor and get some friendly entertainment while they’re away from their homes and families.

If you’re interested in coming along the short mission trip (3 hours total duration) to deliver the donated items or would like more information, contact Maggie S. at maggiesonnenberg@icloud.com. Thank you for your generosity.

Join us for our next sessions in this long-established project at OSLC, where we have been creating dresses for girls in Africa since 2014. This initiative transforms donated pillowcases into beautiful dresses, utilizing the guidelines set forth by “Little Dresses for Africa” and embellishments like ribbons and buttons. 

Help us support this global community project and contribute to the over 600 dresses that our volunteers at OSLC have created and donated. No prior sewing experience is necessary to participate.
