Your full, active participation in our parish will enhance the quality of our worshipping community. We thank you for choosing to be a part of Our Lady of Guadalupe and look forward to sharing our parish and our faith.

The OLg TEAM

Our pastor, parochial vicar, deacon and parish staff are here to assist our parish members, ministries and community. We also have many dedicated volunteers who serve as council members, ministry leaders and parish volunteers.

Our staff is committed to helping our parishioners practice their faith and supports our parish clergy. Located at the Parish Life Center, the OLG staff handles the day-to-day work of a busy parish so they can assist our parish clergy, ministries, membership, and the local community.
