OUR LADY OF THE MOUNT CATHOLIC CHURCH

What OUR LADY OF THE MOUNT CATHOLIC CHURCH does

Our Lady of the Mount Catholic Church (OLMCC) is a Roman Catholic parish located at 1227 Scenic Highway atop Lookout Mountain, Georgia, operating under the spiritual and administrative authority of the Archdiocese of Atlanta. The parish provides a worship and sacramental home for Catholic families and individuals across the tri-state area of Georgia, Tennessee, and Alabama, and extends its reach through Saint Katharine Drexel Mission at 140 New England Rd., Wildwood, GA, which hosts additional Masses and confession services. Core offerings include Saturday vigil and Sunday Mass, weekday Masses, Reconciliation, Baptism, Eucharist, Confirmation, Marriage and funeral rites, faith formation for children and adults, and a portfolio of outreach ministries spanning Hot Meals, food pantry support, prison ministry, school partnerships, and donations to local shelters and blessing boxes.

The organization's technology stack is minimal and entirely platform-based, with no proprietary software, mobile applications, or APIs disclosed. The public-facing website (olmcc.com) is hosted on the eCatholic® content management platform, which also disseminates weekly bulletins and news updates. Online giving is routed through OSV Hub (osvhub.com), enabling recurring and one-time digital donations across multiple designated funds and appeals. The image assets on the site include some generated via ChatGPT, indicating incidental use of generative AI for visual content but no deeper integration.

As a religious non-profit with no commercial revenue, OLMCC is funded entirely by voluntary parish donations, weekly and appeal-driven tithes, and shares of the Archdiocese of Atlanta's coordinated campaigns. For 2026, the parish carries an assigned pledge target of $28,352 toward the Archdiocese-wide $11,740,000 Archbishop's Annual Appeal, alongside Wave One of the Capital Campaign which runs through September 30, 2026. Paid headcount is approximately 8, including clergy (Pastor Fr. Mark Thomas and Deacon Mark Mitchell), a Business Manager, Music Director/Volunteer Coordinator, Director of Religious Education, and an organist; broader ministry execution relies materially on volunteers. There is no external investor, equity, or commercial ownership — the parish is governed by episcopal authority within the Archdiocese.
