Mission Statement
The Diocese of St. Ignatius of Antioch is a local faith-based organization serving the region by providing programs that educate, bring hope and restore dignity. The programs are provided to everyone regardless of religious belief.
Description
The church was founded in 1996 in the city of Los Angeles. The congregation consisted of many immigrants from diverse parts of Latin America. The church was established to have a community that would follow the same traditions from their homelands. As the membership of the parishioners grew, the church became more involved in the local community with its many programs. Aside from providing a spiritual outlet and counseling for its members, other programs include high school classes for adults, mental health counseling and financial assistance for the needy. All programs are provided for the benefit of the community regardless of the faith of the individual. The church is hoping to expand its charitable works to enhance the lives of even more people.
