St. Louise De Marillac

From the Pastor

Dear Friends in Christ,

In the Gospel of Luke Jesus encourages his disciples to be like servants that keep their lamps burning, always ready for service, awaiting their master’s return. St. Louise de Marillac is a special place, for our parish and school family, and for me personally. As a parish, we seek to ensure the longevity and vibrancy of this faith community to be a place to carry out the Gospel of Jesus Christ to those in our parish.

For this reason, I am honored to share with you today that our parish will be launching a new capital campaign, Moving Forward in Faith, with a goal of $2.86 million. When successful, these funds will allow us to keep our proverbial lamps burning. Our facilities are a key to our ability to serve as disciples of Jesus. They invite us into fellowship and ensure our safety and comfort. The campaign will finance important enhancements in our parish to ensure our safety and security, as well as to make our church a revitalized place to worship. I encourage you to read further in this brochure about the goals of this campaign, as well as how this campaign will contribute to the Archdiocese of Los Angeles’ Called to Renew campaign. Please do not hesitate to reach out to me with additional questions about this important effort.

As your pastor, I invite you to take a moment in prayer to discern how you can best support Moving Forward in Faith. I also encourage you to consider making a pledge for a five-year period. A multi-year pledge will enable you to make the best gift possible and allow us the best opportunity to reach our goal. This is a wonderful parish and community, and it is an honor to walk in faith with our parishioners. I know our campaign will be a great success and allow us to keep our lamps burning bright, ready for service, to the glory of the Lord Jesus Christ!

Peace in Christ,

Rev. Robert P. Fulton
