Our community is excited to participate alongside all parishes, missions and Catholic centers in the Archdiocese to strengthen and renew our Church for the future. Please continue reading to learn how this campaign will benefit us.
In 1935, when a handful of families sacrificed to establish Holy Angels, they also blessed us with a legacy to build upon and celebrate.
Through God’s grace, we have grown from a small faith community into a vibrant and welcoming parish, in which generations of people have found their unique spiritual home.We are very proud of our wonderful community and all we have been able to accomplish, and we are eager that this legacy continue for future generations.
As you have probably heard, the Archdiocese of Los Angeles has launched a Called to Renew capital campaign, in which every parish is participating.This campaign will allow us to address the needs and goals of Holy Angels and ensure this future.
Each parish has been assigned a particular goal, of which 50 percent goes for Archdiocesan programs and 50 percent remains at the parish.Anything above this goal also remains at the parish.Our goal is $1,330,000.This means that if our campaign is successful, we will receive a minimum of $665,000 for our own parish needs.
We are humbly asking you and every member of our parish to make a very special gift from the heart, to help us reach our goal.For many, the best way may well be to make it in the form of a five-year pledge.We, along with the future generations of Holy Angels, will be extremely grateful to you for your support of this important and historic campaign.
May God bless you for your extraordinary generosity!
Pledged over 5 years for the Called to Renew Campaign.

Parish Needs
Solar Carport & Chargers for Electric Vehicles
Installation of solar carports in the Holy Angels’ parking lot will significantly reduce utility costs for our Church and School, which will free up funds to support parish ministries and educational programs for our children. We will purchase and install a photo voltaic (“PV”) solar panel system which provides a much cleaner energy source and substantially reduces greenhouse gas emissions.
Parking Lot
The church parking lot needs repair and repaving. This project will ensure safe and organized traffic flow for both pedestrians and drivers moving through the lot. In addition, this will increase the longevity/durability of the parking lot, avoid costly unplanned repairs, and result in a fresh appearance that will increase neighborhood curb appeal.
Painting the Exterior of the School Building
The exterior of our school building needs patching and painting, which will help reduce structural deterioration from exposure to sun and moisture and thus extend the life span of the building.
Gathering Center Structure
The outdoor gathering center needs a structural upgrade and repair to ensure its continued safe use, particularly for socialization and promotion of Parish ministries. We need to preserve the beloved space where an abundance of donuts and countless cups of coffee have been enjoyed after Masses over the years!
Miscellaneous Repairs and Renovations
Between the church, rectory, Msgr. Walsh Hall, and school, regular repairs and renovations are necessary to maintain the buildings, equipment, classrooms, and worship space in good and safe working condition. Proper maintenance of the facilities is important to the operation of parish ministries and the education of children attending the school.
A Bold Plan of Renewal
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.
