In 2006, the
Parish commemorated the 50th Anniversary of its founding. The year
long celebration, which began with an Anniversary Mass celebrated by Cardinal
Roger Mahony on January 28, was an opportunity for the parishioners and the new
pastor to get to know each other very well by organizing and participating
together in numerous celebratory activities. The most formal of such events was
a dinner-dance and silent auction that
took place on May 6.
Farther
Kevin’s dream of turning the Parish into an example for others to follow and
into a beacon of moral and spiritual guidance for the community at large draws
its strength in the dedication of the many volunteers who, although diverse in
cultural background, work together to create a unified cohesive community well
integrated not only with the Valley’s Catholic parishes but also with other
faith based groups in the community at large.
With Father
Kevin at the helm, and with the help of the entire spiritual and administrative
staff, the new Parish Council, and all the committed volunteers, we are ready to
face the challenge and turn the dream into reality. |
