Our Parish Goal
$700,000
Pledged over 5 years for the Called to Renew Campaign.
Our Parish Receives
$350,000
To renew our parish and strengthen ministries.
The church has not been painted in many years. Repainting the interior and exterior will better reflect the beauty of the Word proclaimed in our worship space.
Our sound system is outdated, and many parishioners have difficulty hearing the Word of God. Installing a new sound system will ensure all are able to participate during Mass.
Our parish could benefit by hiring personnel for certain key areas of parish life. This could include someone to serve in our ministry to young adults and youth, plus an on-site employee for cleaning, maintenance, and upkeep of the property. We could also benefit by having at least a part-time business manager and/or accountant to help with the administrative side of parish life.
Our parking lot provides a poor first impression of our campus. Repaving the parking lot, as well as improving the landscaping, will create a more welcoming environment.
We definitely need to improve our landscaping. This will make our parish more beautiful and will create a more welcoming environment for everyone. We also need to repave our parking lots.
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.
