Team Our Lady of the Angels 2020
Back to Chicago and Mission of Our Lady of the Angels! Mission OLA exists to provide material and spiritual support to the West Humboldt Park area in Chicago- one of the most challenged neighborhoods in the United States. The Mission feeds about 1000 families a month and provides additional material and pastoral support to families, youth, and senior citizens.
Most importantly, they bring the love of Christ to a neighborhood desperately in need of HOPE. To me, this says it all. I could write for days about hope. We all need it. I’m grateful for it. And I’m grateful for you- each and every person who takes the time to read this.

Funds raised from Team OLA 2020 will be used to complete the renovation & begin the programming out of the Mission’s new outreach center. The new outreach center will provide the very needed space for the Mission’s donation storage/ distribution, a handicapped accessible kitchen/ dining room, meeting space for neighborhood and retreat groups, and a 45+ bedroom retreat center for volunteers and retreat guests– opening in 2020!
