Be a part of our family of faith!
We are a multicultural and diverse Roman Catholic sacramental community. In the Spirit of our Lord Jesus Christ, we strive to reach out with open arms and receive all people by our commitment to evangelization, social justice, and active participation in community life.
Through the inspiration of the Holy Spirit, we are empowered through prayer and action to heal, to reconcile, and to welcome all people as our community grows in unity. We pray and work together to make the mission of Jesus a reality in our parish, St. Paul of the Cross.
It is located in the city of La Mirada, California. Our parish community is composed of different cultural and ethnic groups like the Anglos, Hispanic and Asians. About 48% of our community come from the Anglos and mixed Anglo Americans. The other portion come from the Hispanic culture (41%), another portion from the Asian-Pacific culture (10%) mostly Filipinos, and from the African-American culture (1%).
Our parish community has about eight hundred active registered families who reside mostly on the western and southwestern part of the city. Most of the families belong to the average working class of different ages or generation.
St. Paul of the Cross Faith Family is composed of devoted parishioners who involved themselves in the different ministries, councils and organizations, prayer groups and activities within the parish. They are the pillars of our church who keep us ever alive and growing and true in living up to our mission.
Our faith community welcomes everyone. It is a family where everyone is welcomed, appreciated, loved, supported and encouraged. Come and visit us at St. Paul of the Cross Church and experience the warm welcome we extend to everyone, both to our members and visitors.
