Pledged over 5 years for the Called to Renew Campaign.
Our Parish Receives
$257,500
To renew our parish and strengthen ministries.
Our job is to unite our community in worship and fellowship. We have asked our parishioners for the needs they see and want in our parish. An Adoration Chapel and refurbishment of our restrooms are necessary. Our church is central to the practice of our faith. We need a quiet room near the sanctuary where our parishioners can come in prayer with Our Blessed Sacrament. Our restrooms also need to become ADL compliant. This project will enhance and update our church, provide prayer space for our people, and bring our church up to code.
We do not have enough rooms to hold all our religious education programs. Improved and updated school facilities are needed to create a more effective and welcoming space for our religious education programs. By creating a new Religious Education Center, we will be able to serve our increased enrollments in all our programs. Learning our faith is at the core of our church in meeting the growing needs of our parish.
Our parish hall was the building of our original church. We now use it for Parish activities and programs. The kitchen needs renovation, and the hall needs new paint and flooring. By upgrading this building, we will be able to provide improved hospitality for our parish groups and their activities.
The parking lot utilized for the church, church activities, and school is in dire need of resurfacing. There are potholes throughout the parking lot. Being able to upgrade our parking area would be beneficial for the entire parish.
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.
