St. Basil Korean Apostolate Catholic Center

Beloved St. Basil Korean Catholic Community family, 

May the peace of the Lord be with every family in our community.

I’d like to share with you the new campaign called the Called to Renew by the Archdiocese of Los Angeles.  

Along with participation of every parish in the Archdiocese of Los Angeles, the Called to Renew campaign would renew missionary discipleship, improve ministry programs, strengthen ministerial outreach, and elevate and improve our parish. In this effort, each parish has been given a target goal amount for the campaign, and we are about to step up to fulfill this goal along with all parishes. 

The target goal for our St. Basil Korean Catholic Community is set at $140,000.  However, $70,000, which is 50% of the total campaign goal, will be directed back to our community for our own needs. Not only that, but our community will also receive 100% of money collected above goal.  The donation can be either one-time payment or pledge over a 5-year commitment.  

For the past 30 years, we had triumphed each time we were called to support the community. And I trust that it is no different this time. Please pray about it and consider giving to support our parish and our future generation. 

I ask Our Lady of Perpetual Help for the success of the Called to Renew campaign, and through the intercession of St. Basil, our patron saint.  

For your enthusiastic participation, I sincerely appreciate it. 

Peace in Christ,

Rev. Taehwan Kim
