For a number of years now vocations to the priesthood have declined and within the the next few years we will be faced with more parishes than there are priests to serve in them.  As Catholics our numbers are growing which only exacerbates the fact we have fewer priests available across the country.  With this information we know some significant changes are coming to us in the near future. 

  

OLPH along with Our Lady of Sorrows and Holy Family have begun formulating a "cluster plan"; the probability is that we will have two priests supporting three parishes in the ever expanding Catholic community here in South County. This presents a unique opportunity for our "Cluster Committee" to formulate a plan that will allow all three parishes to thrive and share our resources, bear each others' burdens, and rejoice together while create a benchmark for other parishes that will soon be facing the same types of events. 

  

The "Cluster Committee" is actively working together to develop a website that will provide resources for all three parishes to use.  We will publish that website information as soon as it becomes available.
