The Together in Mission 2021 “Forward with Faith” Annual Appeal is June 12-13, 2021. Please make a special effort to attend mass, virtually or in-person, so we can pray and reflect on how we can continue to help our struggling parishes and schools in the Archdiocese of Los Angeles. One in EVERY 5 parishes needs financial assistance and 1 in every 4 Catholic schools needs critical funds to keep their doors open. This year’s cumulative Together in Mission goal is $15.35M throughout all five regions. Together, let’s make a difference for those in need especially after this most challenging year.”
