Members live the Ignatian ideal through prayer, contemplation, discernment and action. CLC is a discerning community for Mission, which gives us a sense of Church that leads us to be present where God’s love is lacking. http://www.clc-usa.org/

The Loyola Institute for Spirituality serves the communities of Southern California with retreats, training sessions, workshops, days of recollection, and parish missions in the tradition of the Spiritual Exercises of St. Ignatius Loyola. Special attention is given to adapting the activities of LIS to the cultural, racial and social class realities of the Hispanic, Asian and African-American communities.
 

Martha Ministers assist parishioners in providing a luncheon to family and friends after a funeral in St. Ignatius Church. They shop, cook, set up, serve, and clean up after a luncheon or light reception held in the Parish Center's Garden Room. Food is both purchased and donated, and the average size of group served is 60-80. A typical luncheon requires two-hour shifts beginning about 10:00 am and lasting until 2:00 pm or later, and linens are laundered by the volunteers.
 

For over 20 years, Martha Ministry has assisted parishioners in providing a luncheon to family and friends after a funeral liturgy in St. Ignatius Church. We’d love to have you join us!

Ministry members commit themselves to the protection of life which is threatened by war, the arms race, abortion, poverty, racism, capital punishment and euthanasia. Our parish believes that these issues are linked under a consistent ethic of life.

We provide catechesis around contemporary local and global issues in light of the Gospel and Catholic Social Teaching.
