Along with the Pastoral Council, a collaborative and consultative body to help the Pastor, the Parish School, and the Catholic Formation Ministries, which encompasses all phases and aspects of Catechesis, there are Ministers of the Word, Ministers of the Eucharist, Altar Servers, Liturgy Committee, Music Ministry, Youth ministry, Health Ministry, St. Vincent de Paul Committee, the Pilgrim Virgin Statue Program, and the Scouting Program, to mention a few. The parish also sponsors a Knights of Columbus Council and a Catholic Daughters group. Another vibrant program at Our Lady of Perpetual Help is the Casserole Program. Casseroles and desserts are provided. Due to the growth and our desire to continue our parish tradition of friendliness and warmth, a new ministry has recently begun.
Greeters now welcome visitors and fellow parishioners for the weekend.
Our Lady of Perpetual Help, Ellicott City, is a parish rich in local and Catholic tradition, challenged by tremendous growth in an ever changing world. United and strengthened by our faith in our Lord Jesus Christ, and by our sacramental celebrations, we live and proclaim the Gospel through worship, education and service. May all find us a welcoming community as we nurture our individual and communal relationship with God. Next 100 year update in 2093. All rights reserved.
