Welcome!
Our Lady of the Hills
We seek to grow, conjoined in worship and works inspired by the life, death, teachings and Resurrection of Jesus Christ.
Our Church
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

The Search
TUESDAYS AT 6:00 PM - STARTING APRIL 7, 2026
What is this journey in between the event we call “birth” and the one we call “death”? Is the journey taking you somewhere, or are you leading yourself to some kind of destination – a destination that could extend beyond your last breath? What do you want from your life during the in between? The questions are there and, the answers are too. We welcome you to join us in this discovery for the next seven Tuesdays in our Parish Hall.
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), hand directly to Fr. John or Donna Polwrek (the chair of the committee to fund raise for the system) or mail it to the church office at 173 Main St. Haydenville, 01039. We hope you will consider $25, $50, $100, or $500 or more. Envelopes are available in the back of the church.
