Our Mission — Nuestra Misión

Our Lady of Perpetual Help Parish, has been serving the com-munity of South Ozone Park and beyond since 1923. We are a diverse multi-ethnic Catholic community in a neighborhood of people of many faiths. We are called in Baptism to proclaim the presence of Christ in Word and are nourished with the Body and Blood of Christ in Communion. We follow Jesus Christ proclaiming him to parish and neighborhood; and we use our gifts and talents to serve others.
