In the Fall of 2017, the Our Lady of the Lakes Boosters club met in an attempt to find some positive traction.  “This club has a great history, with dedicated members who have contributed countless hours to supporting OLL athletics”, according to Athletic Director Jared Kullman.

On Saturday, May 19, the Vigil of Pentecost, Fr. Christopher Muer was ordained to the priesthood by Archbishop Allen Vigneron. Along with the entire Church of Detroit, we celebrate his ordination with great joy, as Fr. Christopher will be assigned here at Our Lady of the Lakes as our associate pastor on June 30, 2018.

Another spring, another graduation, and another successful graduating class at Our Lady of the Lakes Catholic School.  On May 20th, Father Scott Thibodeau presented diplomas to the 47 graduating seniors on the altar at Our Lady of the Lakes Church.  

Each year the Archdiocese of Detroit recognizes outstanding educators in their schools with the  “Archdiocese of Detroit Excellence in Teaching Award.”  This year we were lucky enough to recognize two outstanding staff members: Lauren DiSalle (kindergarten) and Terry Zaleski (high school math).

Congratulations to Mrs. Selden on completing her Master’s program on Friday, May 4, 2018! She graduated with a Masters in Arts and Education from Michigan State University. Mrs. Selden also graduated with her undergraduate degree from MSU in 2012 and is currently in her 4th year of teaching second grade at OLL. Way to go Mrs. Selden!

Congratulations to all of the second grade students in Mrs. Selden’s class! Over the past 5 months, they have all been working very hard to prepare their hearts, spirits, and minds to receive Jesus Christ for the first time in Holy Communion. It has been an exciting time for all the students as have they learned, discussed, reflected and prayed about the great Gift of the Eucharist that God has given us!
