St. Ann

Del Pastor

A Message from Fr. Albert Pragasam, OSM

I am writing to you with immense joy and heartfelt gratitude to announce the launch of our parish capital campaign in conjunction with the Archdiocese of Los Angeles’ Called to Renew effort. This campaign will provide much-needed funding for parishes throughout the Archdiocese, and will also benefit Saint Ann.

Each parish has been given a goal for the campaign. The goal for our parish is $135,000. Fifty percent of all funds raised up to goal will stay with our parish, and if we go over goal, 100 percent of the funds collected will remain with our parish. If we meet our goal, we will keep $67,500 to address our own needs. Saint Ann has a rich history of service in Elysian Valley. Called to Renew will allow us to continue to be a vital presence in our community. You will find more details about our campaign on the following pages.

As your pastor, I invite you to take a moment in prayer to discern how you can best support this campaign. I also encourage you to consider making a pledge for a five-year period. This will allow us the best opportunity to reach our goal. This is a wonderful parish and faith community, and I assure you that I am very fortunate to be your pastor. I know that you will do whatever you can to make this campaign a success.
We entrust this campaign to the intercessions of our Blessed Mother and our patron, Saint Ann.

Thank you in advance for your faithful support.

Peace in Christ,

Fr. Albert Pragasam, OSM
