The heritage behind our mortuaries and cemeteries is one of history and tradition. For more than a century, Catholic families have trusted Olinger Mortuaries and Cemeteries to care for their loved ones because respect for traditions, understanding the needs of the Catholic faith, and providing affordable options is at the heart of what we do. With more than a 132 years of combined experience, parishioners Harry Stevenson, Matt Whaley, Lloyd Swint and John Chalupa have assisted families with care and compassion. Their expertise combined with those who provide professional services in 11 Olinger neighborhood chapels is virtually unprecedented in serving the Denver Catholic community.

"We've had hiking in the mountains with Mass, snowshoeing, cross-country skiing, social events, pot-luck dinners, and Inquiry sessions where people just come with their questions about the faith," Father Dessonville said. "And there are a lot of opportunities for catechesis and evangelization." Capitalizing on the opportunity Oktoberfest o' ers to spark interest in the faith, the parish's evangelization team will have a booth there and festi- val-goers may tour the church and may attend the 4 p.m. Saturday Mass. The Dominicans—officially the Order of Preachers—whose charism is teaching and preaching, will mark their 800th anniversary in December. They strive to foster the faith in their parishioners that they might be able to pass it on to others. "The parishioners see themselves as ministers of welcoming," Father Des- sonville said. "The whole leadership team, sta' and parishioners work as one bringing the Gospel to people." faith with beer, food and fun When: 2 p.m.-9 p.m. Oct. 15 Where: St. Dominic Church park- ing lot, 2915 Federal Blvd., Denver Cost: Free admission.
