Welcome Fr. Oscar Daniel Martinez
On September 1, Fr. Oscar Daniel Martinez Gutierrez ("Father Daniel") joined our pastoral staff as our Administrator.
Please continue to pray for Father Daniel, whose father, Ismael, passed away on October 8, 2020, and especially his mother and four siblings who contracted COVID. -
Parish Mission Statement
“We, the people of La Purisima Concepcion Catholic Church, in the Archdiocese of Los Angeles, are called through Baptism to celebrate the presence of Christ in Word and Sacrament.
We are called and sent by Christ to live joyfully and gratefully the life God has given us and to proclaim the good news of Jesus Christ. In the spirit of love, faith, service, unity and solidarity, we strive to bring people closer together and closer to God.” -
Parish Hall renovation appeal
Dear Parishioners,
We are in the process of renovating our bathrooms in the Parish Hall. The bathrooms have needed repair and upgrading for some time. We have been able to start this project but need donations in order to purchase the new tile and fixtures for both bathrooms.
Currently, I am asking all our parishioners to help contribute towards this project. The Parish Hall is first and foremost available for all the parish organizations to use. At some point, we hope to renovate the rest of the hall and the kitchen to make it more desirable to rent out to other groups.
Thank you for your generosity in supporting our parish hall renovation.
May God Bless You,
Father Oscar Daniel Martinez
