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.

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 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!

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

*Cesar & Belinda Ilog / Anointing of the Sick / Baptism / Bereavement / Filipino Ministry / Funerals / Morning Prayer / Our Lady of Perpetual Help / Sacristans

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.
