The "Inclusive Ministries "at OLMC seeks to:
*Welcome persons with disabilities and their families into the life of the parish;
*Invite persons with disabilities to participate in liturgical, spiritual and social life;
*Raise awareness about the needs and gifts of people with disabilities;

The "All Access" Program for children and adults with cognitive disabilities and their families meets every other month on a Thursday. They begin with a prayer experience and then share a meal and conversation.
