Our community is excited to participate alongside all parishes, missions and Catholic centers in the Archdiocese to strengthen and renew our Church for the future. Please continue reading to learn how this campaign will benefit us.
It has been a year since I came to St. Timothy as your new Pastor. I have been blessed to serve all of you in this beautiful Church and community. Shortly after my arrival, I implemented some changes and made visible improvements in our parish. However, our growing parish and school community continue to face challenges that need to be addressed continually.
With our ongoing growth and the call to improve come the need to elevate and maintain our parish community. Together with our Parish Pastoral and Finance Councils, we have identified the need to install a sustainable HVAC system in our parish hall to ensure a conducive comfortable atmosphere in our gathering for events, worship, and services for our parish and school community.
As a family of faith, we are in this endeavor together. This is a part of our mission as the people of God at St. Timothy Church.
Parishes throughout the Archdiocese of Los Angeles face similar challenges, which is why the Archdiocese has launched an ambitious capital campaign, involving every parish, entitled Called to Renew. This campaign is designed to assist all parishes, while allowing us to meet the needs of our Church, its parishioners, and school community. With the funds that we will raise, we will be able to foster a warm and inviting spaces for us to gather, worship, socialize and strengthen our community of faith.
St. Timothy’s 5-year goal for the Called to Renew campaign is $405,000. Fifty percent of this amount will be used to address our parish needs and projects. We also will retain 100 percent of the funds we collect over our goal.
Please take a moment to prayerfully discern how you can most generously support this campaign with your sacrificial gift. I also encourage you to consider making a five-year pledge, which will allow us the best opportunity to reach our goal. Called to Renew is essential to ensuring our Church is vibrant and healthy, and our parish remains a presence in the lives of parishioners and the community for years to come.
I hope you will join me in supporting this endeavor and we entrust this campaign to the intercession of our Blessed Mother and our patron St. Timothy.
Thank you in advance and may the Lord bless you for your generosity.
