Our Parish Goal
$1,500,000
Pledged over 5 years for the Called to Renew Campaign.
Our Parish Receives
$917,500
To renew our parish and strengthen ministries.
Parking is an immediate concern for our community. Expanding our existing parking lot, and repairing the fencing, will transform the school field into a space for parking and activities.
Transforming the pavilion into a weatherproof gathering space, by installing glass windows and air conditioning, will create a secure place for parishioners to share their faith.
Ensuring our school classrooms, used also by religious education, have adequate air conditioning and insulation will allow for year-round use for formational activities
Modifying our parish office and parish ministry center, including repartitioning and reflooring certain areas, will create welcoming meeting areas to accommodate our growing ministries and groups.
Any additional campaign funds will go to essential improvements like painting, roofing, bell tower repairs, interior lighting and fixtures, sound system and video streaming.
We — the Catholic faithful — are the agents of renewal for Church and society. I am grateful for this opportunity to walk alongside clergy and parishioners in strengthening our parishes and ministries, the heart of our Archdiocese.
Our parishes are more than buildings; they are the spiritual homes for millions in our Archdiocese. Embracing our mission to be a community of praise, worship, and witness, Called to Renew recognizes the vital role of parishes in the day-to- day life of a vibrant Church and is dedicated to meeting their needs.
As Christians, we are called to meet the spiritual and temporal needs of others. Called to Renew provides us with an extraordinary opportunity to expand and enhance our ministries to the most vulnerable among us, so we may walk with the sick and dying as well as with the victims and perpetrators of violent crimes and their families.
The future of our Church is strengthened when men hear and answer the Lord’s call to serve as his shepherds. The Archdiocese is committed to vocations and the formation of our seminarians and clergy, so they may minister with joyful hearts in the years ahead.
Our mission to live in greater communion with God and the Church is carried out through our parish and diocesan schools, religious education and faith formation programs, and our presence on college campuses throughout Southern California.
