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.
It is with immense joy and heartfelt gratitude that I announce the launch of Called to Renew at St. Anthony Croatian Catholic Church. This campaign will provide much-needed funding for parishes throughout the Archdiocese of Los Angeles, including ours, as well as strengthen important ministries and programs that affect us all.
Each parish has been given a goal for the campaign. Our goal is $205,000, of which 50 percent will remain at our parish. We will also retain 100 percent of the funds we collect over our goal. If our campaign is successful, we will receive a minimum of $102,500 to address our own needs.
St. Anthony Croatian Catholic Church has a rich history in Los Angeles and Southern California. Called to Renew will ensure that we can continue to be a vital presence in our community. Details about how we plan to use our share of campaign funds are on the following page.
Please take a moment to prayerfully discern how you can most generously support this campaign. I also encourage you to consider making a five-year pledge, which will allow us the best opportunity to reach our goal. This is a wonderful parish, and I am amazed at how our community has always worked together to meet needs that arise. I know you will do whatever you can to make this campaign a success.
We entrust our Called to Renew campaign to the intercessions of our Blessed Mother Queen of Rosary and our patron, St. Anthony along with St. Nikola Tavelic and Bl. Alojzije Stepinac!
Pledged over 5 years for the Called to Renew Campaign.

Parish Needs
New Lighting System
Installing a new lighting system in our church building will illuminate our space and bring clarity to our services, creating a fuller, richer worship experience for all.
Church Roof
Our church roof is leaking and in need of repair. We will repair the roof to protect the structural integrity of our sacred space and ensure its lasting ability for future generations of congregants at St. Anthony.
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.
