When temperatures in Southern California reach extreme levels, carrying out the indispensable administrative tasks and religious and evangelization activities in our parish halls and meeting rooms becomes difficult. Ensuring the temperatures inside are adequate is vitally important to the safety of staff and parishioners and the continuity of ministries, brotherhoods, and community services. Installing a new heating, ventilation, and air conditioning system will better control the temperature and provide higher energy efficiency.
Maintaining our roofs is essential to avoiding the formation of cracks, which cause leaks and water damage in the parish halls and offices, and to eliminating the risk of loose tile falling on someone or something. Repairing roofs will not only improve the appearance of the buildings but will also ensure the safety of parishioners and people working in “La Placita.”eliminating the risk of loose tile falling on someone or something.

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.
