OLPH will be participating in a Living Rosary on Sunday, October 6, 2024. The event will take place in the grass area in front of the main Church entrance immediately following the 11 am mass. Our prayer time will coincide with a countrywide Rosary Rally and will be part of Respect Life month.

This November, Question 1 on the Maryland ballot will ask voters to consider a “Right to Reproductive Freedom” Amendment, also known as the abortion ballot initiative. Voters have a duty to properly form their consciences about these and other important political issues. Join us Wednesday, October 9 at 7:00pm as we welcome a speaker from the Maryland Catholic Conference, to discuss the language, intention, and consequences of this amendment. Please RSVP here.


OLPH partners with Gabriel Network, a Christian ministry supporting women and families
challenged with a crisis pregnancy. Find out about them HERE.
