We, the Catholic Church in Santa Clara County, are blessed with great opportunities and challenges as we seek to carry out the work that Christ has given to us. Blessed with the gift of faith and the vision it affords, we must renew our local Church by taking an honest look at our past and present circumstances and realistically plan for the future.

We are filled with great hope for the future of our Church. As members of the Body of Christ, our hopes and dreams are rooted in Our Lord’s life, message, death and resurrection. This is the rock upon which our plans are based.

How can we, Christ’s Church in Santa Clara County, be a sign of unity and an instrument of God’s peace? How can we fulfill the work that God has given to us? We pray that, in following our Pastoral Plan, we will fulfill the mission Christ has given to us to build the Kingdom promised by His resurrection.
