Register Now for Next Fall's Classes
Pre-School, Elementary, Junior Hi, and Confirmation
Registration for the 2000-2001 School Term for all Religious Education Classes from Pre-School thru High School Confirmation is now being held.
Pre-School Classes take place Sunday Mornings during the 9:00 a.m. Mass during the School Year.
Elementary Classes are held weekday afternoons from 3:45 to 5:00 p.m.
Junior High Classes are held Tuesday Evenings from 7:30 to 8:00 p.m.
Confirmation is open to all students in high school. Classes are held in homes on different evenings to allow for a student's schedule. There are communal gatherings at the parish periodically, and a weekend retreat once each year. All Confirmation students are also required to complete hours of Christian Service to God and neighbor. They are also required to have a Sponsor who lives locally who can journey with them during communal gatherings, and take part in Rites. And, they are additionally required to attend the Archdiocesan Youth Day in Anaheim.
Confirmation II students are reminded that they need to re-register for the Second Year Program.
If this will be your first time registering for any of these classes, please bring along a copy of your child/ren's Baptismal Certificate(s).

HOW MANY CONVERTSHAVE YOU
BROUGHT TO JESUS?
When you suddenly before Jesus on the day of your death, what things will you point out to Him as wonderful things you have accomplished during your life? Will the things you point out to Him, be things that show Him the depth of your love for Him? What things will show Him how you loved Him above all else? How will you tell Him how you fulfilled His final command to go-out into all the world to announce His Good News, and bring others to be baptized in the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Spirit?
Pray about it! What will really be important on that day? The size car you drove? The brand of your clothing? The music you listened to, or danced to? The teams you rooted for? All those things will be left behind. In fact, none of those things will matter, unless they prevented you from living the Gospel, and from spreading that Gospel to others.
How real is your faith commitment? Is it a Sunday thing? Is it lived at home? In your workplace in all you do? During leisure times? Do you merely say I am a disciple of Christ, but do nothing about it? How real is your faith commitment?
Being a disciple of Christ, means living it day-in, and day-out! Being a disciple and putting Christ first, means being so proud of that discipleship that you want and try to share it with others.
Like all other Catholic Christian Communities throughout our country, our parish RCIA Team is now taking names and interviewing those who would like to know more about us Catholic Christians. If there is someone in your life that you would like to bring to Jesus, now is the time to invite him/her/them. Possibly there is a person who was baptized a Catholic Christian but not raised in the faith. Invite that person too!
Also, this is the time to contact a Fallen Away Catholic Christian you know, and invite him/her to come home. Our Welcome Home Team is also interviewing those who have an interest in coming home.
For converts to the Catholic Christian Community of Faith, please give Jenifer Carmichael a call at 805 - 497 - 2551, or Nancy McAvoy at 805 - 480 - 4031.
For returning Catholic Christians, please call Deacon Joe Manion at the Parish Pastoral Office: 818 - 889 - 1279, ext. 219.
