About our Confraternity of Christian Doctrine

Our Religious Education is the only English program authorized by the Archdiocese of Madrid.

One of the most wonderful complimemts OLM receives as a parish is when a parent says that a child wakes them up to make sure they get to Sunday Mass on time. We are proud to be a child freindly parish and probably have the largest group of children gathered at any Sunday Mass in Madrid. Here is a photo of the 2008 graduating class (not all were present!):

We believe strongly in the children taking an active part in parish life as they are our future. Several projects, such as the Christmas Giving Tree, a bake sale and a book sale are among the annual projects led by previous students of the programme. On the first Sunday of each month, we have a Children's Mass, which is organized by one of the classes and their teacher together with the Choir Director. The children handle the readings, the prayer intentions, the music, the Offertory, etc. At our Christmas Eve Mass, the children take part in a pageant, which is a simple, but meaningful affair re-enacting the Gospel of the birth of Jesus. In May, the younger children pay a special homage to Our Lady.

If you have any questions, comments, or concerns, we would be happy to discuss them with you. If you would like to volunteer to teach or assist, please contact us at the e-mail listed below.
