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

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.

Memories of Couples Retreats and Women's Retreats - leading retreats, being on teams, and building lasting wonderful friendships sharing our faith, families, and our stories... attending these through the years are some of my favorite memories.

The sacramental moments for our children and grandchildren and the funerals of my parents render Padre Serra a sacred place - holy ground - for our family.

The entire weekend of celebration when Padre Serra Church was consecrated and dedicated as a new church.

Anvith Bheemisetty

My favorite memory with Padre Serra was being part of Alter server group. Bob is such a nice person and always encouraged to serve God diligently and also have fun with friends. He motivated us with gifts, and I still kept the bag that he presented.

Araceli Martinez Arroyo

Weekly sermons with father Patrick. The weekly welcome to new parishioners and visitors. The trunk or treat and the posadas.

Arlene Cappella

19-year parishioner. I enjoy attending senior meetings and livestreaming Mass every Sunday.

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!

Barbara Scheibelhut

The community.

Barbara Stowasser

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.

Belinda Ilog

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 Brady

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 Moore

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.

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!

Jackie Perrin

Although I had been Catholic my entire life, I was never confirmed. After volunteering for several years with youth ministry and the high school youth group, I was confirmed alongside my young friends. My oldest son, a high school senior and active parishioner at the time, was my sponsor! It was an incredible blessing in so many ways and for so many people, especially me!

Betty Martinez

Pam Valovcin

Father Bill Lowe's ordination as a Catholic priest, with our two daughters altar serving at the mass. So many others - our daughters' 1st communions, 1st reconciliations and confirmations, parish picnics on the lawn of the seminary, outdoor masses during the pandemic, the best music ministry...

Sylvia DeVillers

It's a toss-up between my son's wedding and reception and my husband's funeral: two different ways of experiencing and celebrating God's loving presence with my parish family.

Gary Galles

Coming from a church that prided itself on being bible based, I was struck by how much more Padre Serra reverenced the Bible and how much more effort went into an effective group of lectors. That was a powerful outreach to me.

Sr. Lana Chang

My first favorite memory would have to be seeing the announcement for the Front Desk opening in the bulletin the second week after we moved to Camarillo and then getting the job after I applied and interviewed for the position. Then every single PSP moment after that has been another favorite memory!
