Religious Education Congress 2019
"Thirsting for Justice"
The theme for the Congress of Religious Education 2019
March 21-24
Congress is for everyone – not only for people in ministry at the parish. If you’ve been wanting to understand and grow more in faith, but need a little help getting there, please consider this: it is a weekend of amazing speakers, workshops, prayer experiences, art exhibits, and a beautiful sacred space for prayer and reflection with the Blessed Sacrament. If you haven’t been in a while or have never been, please consider attending the 2019 Congress in Anaheim on March 21 - 24, 2019. If you can’t commit for the entire weekend, try one day to check it out! If you have any questions or would like to know more about it, please feel free to contact Aina Yates at 646-4338 x 111. Hotel room availability is limited.

The Dec holidays kept the lab results from getting to our family in a timely manner. At this moment our daughter,Danielle, is making arrangements to take Claire to Sloan Kettering Hospital in NY where they specialize in this. Hopefully...Read more
Santa Barbara Region Fire Fund
The Woolsey and Hill Fires now out of control in the southern part of the Santa Barbara Region has forced thousands to flee with no end in sight. Highway closures have many stranded with nowhere to go and the immediate need for food and shelter will soon begin to become apparent. Two of our parishes have also evacuated and altho0ough no buildings have been reported lost, we all know that it will take several days to learn the full extent of any damage or injury.
Earlier this year the Thomas Fire which effected so many of our own family...Read more
