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.
We have journeyed together as a parish community for the past six years. Our parish has come a long way, experiencing the blessings and goodness of God. You’ve been so gracious and generous in your support for our parish. We continue to envision our Queen of Angels as a closely knit praying community. Now, we are called to renew our faith and commitment to the building and strengthening of our parish community.
As we continue to take part in the mission of the Church, we must continue working on the vineyard of the Lord to ensure that our local Church is strong and will remain vibrant for future generations. To realize this vision, Queen of Angels is participating, alongside our sister parishes in the Archdiocese of Los Angeles, in the Called to Renew campaign. I am excited to invite you to be a part of this initiative to strengthen the parishes and elevate the ministries of our Archdiocese.
By the grace of God, our parish continues to exist because of your support and generosity. I am amazed at how parishioners have worked together to meet the needs that arise. Together, we continue to create an inspiring community here at Queen of Angels, a beacon of Christ’s love. Called to Renew gives us a tremendous opportunity to come together as an archdiocesan family to serve our local Church alongside our brothers and sisters across Los Angeles, Santa Barbara and Ventura counties. This is truly an extraordinary opportunity to live out our call to serve as His disciples!
Through Called to Renew, Queen of Angels will be able to address our parish’s most pressing needs. Through much prayer, meetings and consultation, we have decided to replace the parish hall’s roof and renovate its restrooms. You can further read details about these projects on the following pages.
Please take a moment to review the impact Called to Renew will have on our parish and across the Archdiocese of Los Angeles — ultimately affecting more than 5 million of your brothers and sisters for generations to come. This campaign has my full support. As your pastor, I hope you will embrace this opportunity for our parish.
Pledged over 5 years for the Called to Renew Campaign.
Our Parish Receives

To renew our parish and strengthen ministries.
Parish Needs
Parish Hall Roof
The parish hall roof has passed its useful life expectancy. Until now, we have managed with patch repairs, but the entire roof must now be replaced to prevent future damage from occurring.
Parish Hall Restrooms
The restrooms in the parish hall are in dire need of upgrading. Remodeling these restrooms will also make them accessible for all of our parishioners.
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.
