June 4th Town Hall Meeting
Regarding the Church Crisis
We gathered @ 7:00 pm Tuesday, June 4th - We had a town hall meeting regarding the Church crisis. Fr. Lenihan
had invited a panel of professionals (Fr. Alex Lewis, MFCC, Juanita Meller, Spiritual Director and Chaplain, and others) to facilitate and process a discussion regarding this topic. The purpose
was not to solve the problem. However, we gathered as "family" to share our concerns, hurt, disappointment AND our hope for a better, stronger, fruitful Church. . . We
"processed" in a very healthy
way.... more to come ...

THANKS for Supporting Our Troops ! -
Holiday Greeting via Email.
http://anyservicemember.navy.mil/
We asked you to consider taking some time over the holidays to write an e-mail to a
U.S. service member who is deployed away from home via -- http://anyservicemember.navy.mil/ -- an official
Department of Defense website that transmits your message to a sailor,
marine, soldier, airman or coast guardsman serving in Operation Enduring
Freedom. While you did not know the final recipient, your
support certainly helped boost morale!
SPECIAL
MASS - Was Held on Saturday 5:00pm

This was a special mass where His Eminence
Cardinal Roger M. Mahony Archbishop
of Los Angeles was AGAIN at our Parish. This Mass was in recognition of the new promotion
& title of “Protonotory Apostolic” that our “Most Reverend Monsignor
Lenihan” has recently received.
Our wonderful choir performed some new pieces that
they had been diligently rehearsing over the previous several weeks. THANK YOU
for the strong turnout to show Monsignor our support and love.
