Our Lady Help of Christians Academy is a school located east of Denver and is run by the Society of St. Pius X. When SSPX priests came to this area in the early 90s, they found traditional Catholics here who had already started schools. Because Abp. Lefebvre asked his priests to start schools and these Catholics had a great love for the Mass and for Catholic education, it was only natural for those schools to become a single SSPX school. Now, in 2022, we are celebrating the 27th anniversary of Our Lady Help of Christians Academy.
Our school has around 150 students in grades K-12. We do not receive any government funding and, like many parish schools, we operate at a loss. As such, we are only able to keep afloat through our yearly fundraiser, which typically brings in over $100,000. This year, we are having a sweepstakes I which offers a grand prize of $5,000. In addition, purchases of entries by those within the USA are tax-deductible.
One thing that is special about our academy is that our schoolchildren attend the traditional Latin Mass every school day.
The school website is olhcacademy.org and the fundraising website is go.rallyup.com/olhca2022. Those who purchase entries in the sweepstakes can do so on behalf of one of the students, teachers or priests in the school. Here are the specific pages for the priests:
In March, I gave a sermon about the particular mission of the SSPX in children’s education and also the importance of providing families with a Catholic school. We are truly building the future of Catholic Tradition! As such, we very much appreciate any support that you can provide our school.go.rallyup.com/olhca2022
