Religious Education
OLMC is founded on and guided by the Mercy story.
Religious education and formation at OLMC involves the community of students, staff, and parents understanding the Mercy Values and the charism of Catherine McAuley which underpins the curricular and co-curricular life at the College.
Religious Education, Social Justice, Liturgy, Retreats and Reflection Days are formal and informal ways the College upholds a Mercy Education and assists students to develop a personal relationship with God.
At OLMC, theological and spiritual formation and immersion in the Mercy charism are provided for staff to enable them to foster the College’s Catholic ethos. Mission at OLMC also supports young adult faith development initiatives and experiences aimed at enhancing Mercy identity by working with pastors and other agencies, including Mercy organisations.
We acknowledge the Burramattagal People of the Darug Nation, the traditional custodians of the land in Parramatta. We acknowledge the Elders, past and present and their ancestors who have had a deep relationship with country.
