Msgr. Kevin is continuing a campaign to increase the Cathedral endowment fund to benefit long-term maintenance projects and upgrades for the Cathedral. In honor of his 20 years as Pastor of the Cathedral, his goal is to increase the endowment from $13 million to $20 million.

JOHN VIANNEY CHURCH In April 2011, St. John Vianney Church in Hacienda Heights burned to the ground, along with substantial damage to the adjacent rectory. The fire raged for over six hours as Los Angeles County firefighters battled 60 to 100 foot high flames. Committed to rebuilding, the parish began a Rise Again Campaign which continues to this day. To assist them in sharing their story and efforts to rebuild, the Cathedral will display a special exhibit of photographs and artifacts from this tragic event. There exists a special bond between the Cathedral and St. John Vianney Church as it is the home parish of Cathedral Pastor, Msgr. Kevin. We invite you to visit the chapel and offer your prayers and support as they continue to move forward in their efforts to see their beloved parish rise again.
