The windows in the Church illuminate our worship space by allowing the beauty of sunlight to come. Depending on the time of the day, the effect of the sunlight can be quite remarkable. However, our windows are broken, the frames are corroded, and they need replacement.

Our church bell tower, which houses a steeple and belfry, was installed many years ago; We have experienced an ongoing problem of leaks into the chapel through the tower during rainy seasons, causing significant structural damage. We have made numerous temporary repairs up until now. However, we need to take immediate action to replace the bell tower.
Estimated Cost: $15,000
The storage adjacent to the stairs to the upper-level parking and the education building is severely infested and damaged by termites. To ensure our supplies’ safe and more extended storage, we need to take imminent action to replace the storage.

It has been many years since the Church’s exterior was last painted. Due to heavy rains, winds, and changes in the temperature, the paint on many areas is peeled off and deteriorated. Proceeds from the campaign will be used to paint the Church.
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.
