When we moved here we looked for the right church. On our first visit to Padre Serra it felt like a great fit. That is a lasting memory that I will not forget. Also Fr. Patrick thought my husband and I were much younger than we were so that was also apart of my favorite memories her at the Parish.

Ami Milla

I love the women's retreats. You get to form more personal connections and learn how fun these women are.

Ann Duffy

Nothing compares to the Easter Vigil Mass at Padre Serra. Ever since we started going to this Mass, we've loved it. The beautiful readings, wonderful choir, new baptisms, and, of course, celebration of Jesus' Resurrection make this our favorite Mass of the year. Our kids are adults so feel free to publish their names. Also, we all consent to sharing our email addresses.

I’ve been a 30-year parishioner, and the parish is like “family.” The people are so friendly & welcoming that we’ve always felt like we belonged there.

Barbara Karplus

Teaching children's Faith Formation for 15 years between 2007 and 2022, especially the last 11 years helping 5th graders learn about the Bible.

Barbara Likovich

Our favorite memory at Padre Serra was when our church building opened 25 years ago. Right away, we fell in love with our unique “Mass in the Round” architecture. Instead of looking at “backs,” we were able to see many parishioners praying and singing with their happy faces. Instantly we felt we belonged!

Becky Hosseini

I love the welcome letter, how genuine Father Patrick is & how welcoming the people are. Having retired & moved here from Michigan (and not knowing a soul) I feel so blessed to be a part of this wonderful community. Oooh, and the music ministers to my soul. This church has so much to offer. It really is a community unto itself.

At the groundbreaking ceremony, we were told we could get dirt and put it in a container to bring home as souvenirs. I kept that glass jar for many, many years. I watched the development of the construction of the church, and that was exciting. Another memory was the unveiling of the huge crucifix in the church. The church was full, and there were many reporters taking pictures. I had the opportunity to meet the artist.

Benita Bheemisetty

My favorite memory with Padre Serra was being a peer leader during summer programs. It was so nice to enjoy the summer break with fun activities with other parish friends.

Bill Moody

I have so many, over the past 25 years we have been coming to Padre Serra. Family weddings, confirmations, baptisms, the building of the Church and the Hall, and watching as we deliver angel tags gifts to the needy parishes in our area. We are lucky to belong.

Bill Routolo

All of my best friends go here! And I love to sit with them.

Bill Rumble

I have so many favorite memories of Padre Serra Parish - RCIA, our Marriage Convalidation, our Confirmation, Living Liturgy, Help and Hope Ministry I ran for 6 years, all the great people we have met and friends that we have made, our Grandkids First Communion, our grandson's Confirmation. Padre Serra is a huge part of our lives, every day! I thank God every day for bringing me to Him, to His Church and to Padre Serra Parish.

Bob Demyan

Breanne Eshelman

I have wonderful memories from making my Confirmation at Padre Serra over 25 years ago! I remember the retreat and how special it was to read letters from our parents. I also remember the washing of the feet. So touching! It was such a fantastic Confirmation program!

Mass in general. Being united as one mystical body to offer up the sacrifice of Mass.

Father Patrick and fellow parishioners warmly welcomed us when we moved to Camarillo three years ago. I found Father's homilies uplifting and inspiring in the depths of the pandemic. Three years later, I feel blessed to be part of this parish family, my spiritual home.
