Loving Christ, Loving Others
We are a welcoming Catholic community called by God to live out the message of Christ in love and service to all people. Our parish mission is:
To proclaim the Gospel of Christ to our local community in word, deed, and truth.
Florence Bank continues to offer a program that annually distributes $125,000 among local non-profit organizations. They call it their Annual Customers' Choice Community Grants. Any qualifying nonprofit organization that receives 50 or more customer votes receives a proportional share of the funds. Historically many non-profits have been awarded between $1,000 and $5,000. In 2025 Our Lady of the Hills Parish received $5,000 because you voted for us! Way-to-Go! The Finance Council urges parishioners to participate again on behalf of OLH by voting. Voting is available online at https://www.florencebank.com/vote

KEEP THE HEAT ON
Our historic church needs a new heating system to keep our doors open and our community warm. Every gift helps! You may give by: dropping your gift in the collection basket (designating your donation for the boiler system), bring your donation to the Rectory or mail it to the church office at 173 Main St. Haydenville, 01039. Please note "heating system" in the memo of the check (made out to Our Lady of the Hills). We hope you will consider $25, $50, $100, or $500 or more. Envelopes are available in the back of the church.
Florence Bank Customer Choice Award
Once again we received an award from Florence Bank. We received a check for $5,000.00 and will use this money for Take and Eat this year. Florence Bank is a big contributor to our community, so please join us in giving them a big Thank You! Thanks also to the Parishoners who voted for Florence Bank as your customer choice. We couldn't have done it without you!
