UCC GENERAL ANNOUNCEMENTS staff@uccla.org

Meet Our New Campus Minister, S. Mary Perez, OP!
S. Mary Therese Perez, OP, will join the UCC Staff as the new campus minster for the Vocations Alive! program starting tomorrow! Originally from the Sacramento area, S. Mary Therese has lived in the LA area for the past six years while teaching at Flintridge Sacred Heart Academy in La Cañada. This past August, she professed her Final Vows as a Dominican Sister of Mission San Jose. Since an excellent campus ministry experience as an undergrad at Stanford inspired her faith and vocation, Sr. Mary looks forward to accompanying students in their journeys of deepening relationship with God and is grateful for the opportunity to serve in campus ministry at the UCC. Please don’t hesitate to say hi when you see her! She loves chatting about prayer and spirituality, Netflix, food in LA, podcasts, and vlogging. Also, be sure to follow her on Instagram: @hermanamaite1

NOTE: We will also introduce our two new FOCUS missionaries within the next few weeks, so stay tuned!

Summer Events staff@uccla.org

Thursday Night Student Dinners
We do not have our regular Student Dinners during the summer, but we invite you to join us again as we resume on Thursday, September 27th, at 6:00 pm during Week 0 of Fall Quarter. Come on by share delicious homemade food cooked by our fellow community members and bond together with friends old and new during the start of a new academic year!

Music Ministry Summer Rehearsals!
Music Ministry will not have rehearsals on Thursdays over the summer. If you would like to sing or play an instrument with us over the summer, just show up an hour before the 10:30 am or 7:00 pm Mass to learn the music. Contact our Music Director, Rich Medrano, for more info. Hope to see you all there!

Prayer for Peace
O God of selfless love, we are a blest people to have a god like you. You instill your love for us into the hearts of your human creatures. Even if those human creatures do not acknowledge you, your love for us still shines through. We ask your blessing upon all first responders today and ask you to protect them and their families. Help us love people of all nations, races, and creeds, which will bring about the end to wars and terrorism. We ask all this in your peace. Amen.

UCC STEWARDSHIP finance@uccla.org

We ask for a weekly donation of only $5.00 per person, but will graciously accept any contribution large or small.
Please note: With most students returning to their home parishes over the summer, we obviously depend more upon your generosity to help meet our needs - especially since weekly collections have been lower than expected for the past few weeks.
Thank you in advance for your continued generosity.
- Fr. Jamie *(Staff salaries are provided by the Archdiocese of LA & are not included here)

WESHARE Want to donate online?

Did you know that only $5 per week from each student is enough to keep all of the wonderful programs here at the UCC?
If you are finding it difficult to remember to bring $5 cash each week, how about joining WeShare? WeShare makes it easy for students and community members to make regular monthly or weekly donations to the UCC. To get started, visit our online giving website at http://uccla.churchgiving.com. If you have any questions about WeShare, or online giving in general, please contact our Finance Committee at finance@uccla.org.
