New and Needy Parishes

New and Needy Parishes $8 Million

The population growth has left many parishes overcrowded. The Church must plan for future generations of Catholics and assist in the establishment of new parishes in areas experiencing the greatest population growth and pastoral need … i.e. NW Stockton, Modesto, Turlock, Manteca, etc

Many existing parishes are in need of renovations, repair or expansion. Often these facilities are in communities that cannot afford adequate maintenance or development. The people of the Diocese must provide aid to poor parishes and help those in need.
