To renew our parish and strengthen ministries.
The electrical wiring and plumbing systems in our church need to be upgraded to code. We will use our Called to Renew funds to renew the plumbing with new water pipes around the church and we will install new electrical panels that can handle all our technical systems. We also want to upgrade our lighting to environmentally friendly, and efficient, light fixtures. Our existing electrical wiring is disintegrating, and parts of our chandeliers are not operable. With new electrical wiring, we will increase lighting and create a safer environment.
During Mass, we celebrate the Liturgy of the Word, and the Liturgy of the Eucharist. Sometimes it is difficult to hear either part of the Mass due to the inferior quality of our sound system. With Called to Renew funds, we will install a new sound system to improve the quality of sound during Mass. The microphones on the altar and music area will also be updated.
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.
