BENEFIT FOR OUTREACH

We would like to invite you to attend David Brock's organ concert " Hot August Pipes" on Saturday, August 13th from 5 - 7:30 PM. They will be serving wine and appetizers at the event. The concert will benefit our Outreach Program, TOCCATA, the Tahoe Symphony Orchestra. David's performance/setting is truly unique, with its living room dwarfed by the organ, and his masterful playing. Please join us. Click on www.DavidBrockMusic.com and scroll down the list of performances to our August 13 event. The tickets are $125 per person and would be a donation towards Our Lady Of Tahoe Church/Outreach Program. Thank you for your past support of our Outreach Program. We continue to serve over 80 families each month with nutritious fresh foods and staples. If you have any questions, contact Francie at alling603@gmail.com.

 

2022 LISTENING SESSION RESULTS

June 10, 2022

Dear Brothers and Sisters in Christ,

Thank you! Your role in the Listening Sessions helped us accomplish the diocesan phase of the Synod on Synodality. I am pleased with the response of the 745 participants who came to one of the 50 listening sessions. All of your input was gathered, collated, and categorized into the following top themes:

  1. Community/Hospitality
  2. Worship/Sacraments
  3. Spirituality/Prayer/Scripture
  4. Catechesis
  5. Evangelization
  6. Communication
  7. Leadership/Training

I especially appreciate and thank those who helped to organize and lead the sessions, taking care to provide the opportunity for Prayer and Adoration before the discussion. Your saying "yes" perhaps led to some benefits you had not counted on, for instance, the mere act of gathering people to listen was encouraging in itself.

Now that we have collected and organized the results from our diocese, we will send them to the United States Conference of Catholic Bishops. They will become part of our national report, which will be sent to the Vatican as part of the eventual Synod to be held in Rome. Please pray for the Holy Spirit to inspire and guide the process at every level.

With every best wish and an assurance of prayers, I remain,

Yours in Christ,

Most Rev. Daniel H. Mueggenborg

 

OUTREACH CELEBRATES ITS 30TH ANNIVERSARY

“Love cannot remain by itself- it has no meaning. Love has to be put into ACTION, and that action is SERVICE.”

Our Lady of Tahoe Church/Outreach Program is thrilled to announce our 30th Anniversary in serving the families in our local south shore area! What an accomplishment for our Outreach Program that began in 1992 to continue this ministry.

Thanks to our generous donors who have given from their hearts for 30 years, we would not have been able to maintain this endeavor without your contributions. A heartfelt thanks to you. Thanks also to corporate Albertsons and Safeway. Their generosity has been incredible throughout Covid by having our Outreach Program recipients of grocery gift cards that we distribute to our families.

We assist over 400 adults and children year-round with food boxes on the second weekend of each month. Our 25-30 volunteers are dedicated to helping purchase, assemble, and distribute the food each month.

If you are interested in volunteering for our Outreach Program, please contact Francie Alling at alling603@gmail.com.

Volunteers are always welcome - we can assist you in channeling your “love into service.”
