Mission of Our Lady of the Angels

OUTREACH - SHARE OUR FAITH: STREET EVANGELIZATION

Sr. Kate The Franciscans do street evangelization in their neighborhood and in other places.
At the Mission, we host BLOCK PARTIES during the summer. Our block parties and provide a safe, supervised play area for the children in the neighborhood. During these times, we have the opportunity to share the treasures of our faith.

Games

Block parties usually also include a barbecue lunch, games for the kids, snow cone and popcorn machines, and space for adults to enjoy the shade and good conversations.
Each year our August block party is our “Back to School” block party where we distribute backpacks and school supplies. We distributed backpacks and school supplies to 700+ children in August 2022.

Dates and details for block parties will be announced via the home page and calendar page.

We work with parishes to do Eucharistic processions and other forms of street evangelization. We also do a lot of street evangelization as part of our Night of Mercy program. If you’re interested in us helping you with a street evangelization event or Night of Mercy at your parish, please email Sr. Stephanie at olamission@gmail.com.
