WELCOME TO ST. ANTHONY'S CROATIAN CATHOLIC CHURCH |
St. Anthony Croatian Catholic Parish is a community of faith and love, graced with a revered ethnic heritage.
We share our Catholic faith with other parish communities that constitute the larger local Church of Los Angeles. With them we are devoted to a common Church mission, which is to witness the presence of God in our world and to advance the civilization of love.
At the same time, we are a distinct ethnic community. The Croatian Christian heritage is fourteen centuries old. We cherish such a legacy and are indebted to preserve our rich Croatian culture, traditions, customs, values and language for future generations.
In regard to this specific character of our parish community, our primary goal is to enhance efficient interaction of faith and culture. Therefore, we commit ourselves to promoting the cultural adaptation of liturgy. Also, in order to invigorate dynamics of evangelization we are committed to contextualize all pastoral, catechetical, social and cultural activities in the parish. |

The “MISSION APEAL” collections conducted by Rev. Joseph Donovan, of Maryknoll Mission is US $329.00.
Next Sunday we will have the “National Needs Combined Collection.” This collection continues to strengthen Cath- olic faith, values and education through “The Catholic Communication Campaign's television, radio, and print messages. It helps support some of the poorest dioceses in the country that depend on the annual collection. It enables to insure the highest standards of quality Catho- lic education though The Catholic University of America's exceptional programs of scholarship, research, and ser- vice. It strengthens the Church at home, and helps to provide basic pastoral resources and services to needy ethnic communities in scattered and isolated areas through the catholic Home Missions Appeal. Please, be generous with your support.

Stogodišnjica hrvatske župe sv. Ante u Los Angelesu obilježena je u subotu 11. prosinca, 2010., na isti dan kada je 11. prosinca 1910. godine biskup Thomas Conaty posvetio župsku crkvu. Osnivatelj župe i prvi župnik je bio don Anton Žuvić iz Luke na Dugom Otoku. Stogodišnjica je obilježena gala banketom i svečanim prigodnim programom.
Suslavitelji jubilarne Euharistije su bili župnik don Mate, bivši župnici don Srećko i don Janko, svećenička “mladica” iz naše župe vlč. Richard Charbel Grbavac, hrvatski misionar pri župi Mary Star u San Pedru o. Ivan Gerovac te fra Ljubo Krasić iz Franjevačke Kustodije u Chicagu.

Our Chilren's School Mission Statement is a coherent partnership between our priests, teachers, parents and students.
The objective is to ensure that each student develops a firm foundation of our Croatian heritage, nurtured through a distinctive base of knowledge.
Continuing the accomplishments from last year, we have added an exciting new study program about Croatia, our beautiful homeland, a new dance and music class where students can learn how to play Tamburica and sing in a children's choir.
