About Our Lady of Perpetual Help Glendale Parish
A parish rooted in tradition, growing through faith, and embracing innovation
Welcome to Our Lady of Perpetual Help Parish. Located in the heart of Glendale, Arizona, OLPH is a vibrant Roman Catholic community serving more than 3,000 families in English and Spanish. Whether you are a lifelong Catholic, returning to the Church, new to the area, or simply exploring the faith, we invite you to make OLPH your spiritual home.
At OLPH, faith is at the center of everything we do. Through the celebration of the sacraments, Eucharistic Adoration, prayer, faith formation, Catholic education, and community outreach, we strive to help people of all ages encounter Jesus Christ and grow as His disciples.
Our parish is known for its welcoming spirit, strong sacramental life, active ministries, and commitment to evangelization. Throughout the week, our campus comes alive with prayer groups, youth ministry, faith formation programs, community events, and opportunities to serve others.
While deeply rooted in the rich traditions of the Catholic Church, OLPH also embraces innovative ways to reach people in today’s world. Through digital faith formation, our parish app, online giving, modern communications, and educational technology initiatives, we seek to make the faith more accessible and help future generations grow closer to Christ.
Our annual Consecration to the Sacred Heart of Jesus, devotion to Our Lady, Eucharistic Adoration, and beloved celebrations such as the Feast of Our Lady of Guadalupe reflect the deep faith that continues to unite our parish family.
Together with Our Lady of Perpetual Help Catholic School, which has served Glendale families since 1953, we remain committed to forming disciples who live their faith with joy, compassion, and purpose.
Today, OLPH continues to grow as a parish family while remaining faithful to the mission entrusted to us by Christ: to proclaim the Gospel, celebrate the sacraments, and serve our community with love.

A century of faith, service, and community in Glendale, Arizona
Discover the history of Our Lady of Perpetual Help Parish in Glendale, Arizona, from its humble beginnings as a small adobe church to the vibrant Catholic community it is today.
Our Lady of Perpetual Help Parish began as a small adobe church serving the local community in Glendale. Through periods of growth, rebuilding, and renewal, generations of faithful parishioners helped shape the parish we know today.
Officially established as a parish in 1947, OLPH expanded with the opening of its Catholic school in 1953 and the construction of the current church in 1973. Following a major renovation in 2022, the parish continues to serve thousands of families through worship, education, evangelization, and community outreach.
While much has changed over the decades, our mission remains the same: to lead people to Jesus Christ and help them live the Gospel every day.
