Community Outreach -

Pan de Vida – The Candidates assist in organizing, cleaning, and distributing food to many needy families of the parish in East Los Angeles. They spread the Good News to these families by their cheerful and giving attitude and their gifts of time and service.

Education -

Marian Club – Spreading devotion to Our Lady, Help of Christians, is the main goal in having a Marian Club for many young girls. Participants share moments of prayer through drama, activities and song, and play an active role in the Liturgies of Marian Feast days. Their love for Mary is spread to the young through the positive witness of Jesus present in our lives.

Teacher Assistance – The Candidates assist the teachers in monitoring the students at play during recess.  They build relationships with the young in informal settings, reinforcing the values expressed in the spirituality of Saint John Bosco and Saint Mary Mazzarello.

Religious Education School – The Candidates assist the catechists of the Parish in providing fundamental lessons on the Catholic Church, to help many young children grow in their awareness and love for God. In being actively involved in this ministry, Candidates serve the youth in the spirituality of the Salesian charism.

Parish Ministry -

Parish Events – The Candidates participate in various Parish events and activities, such as retreats, workshops, and Liturgy planning to gain a better sense of community within the Catholic Church, and to deepen their faith in God’s presence in their lives.
