To renew our parish and strengthen ministries.
As you are aware, we have had issues with the electrical panel, which prevents us from using the lights at the back of the Church. We need to address this issue and update the Church’s lighting. Updating the lighting will significantly enhance the beauty of our Church.
The Church roof needs repairs to protect the Church buildings and parishioners. Inclement weather has damaged the structure, and the roof has many leaks due to the aging conditions of the century-old Church buildings. Also, the panels of the 30-year skylight have fallen off its track, and in some locations, the track itself has been broken. We also seek to make repairs there to keep the beautification of our Church.
Handing on the faith to our young people is one of our primary responsibilities. What good is it to invest in buildings if no one is inside? Finding new and engaging ways to pass on the faith and form true disciples is the goal. We must invest in resources such as bibles, books, and other teaching resources. This includes technology as well as investing in guest speakers and retreats.
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.
