Last week's Catholic Charities Auxiliary Quartermania event at San Antonio Catholic Church was a big success!⁠
The lively afternoon brought together parishioners, supporters, and community members for fast-paced bidding, laughter, and camaraderie - all for a great cause.⁠
⁠
Attendees enjoyed food, fellowship, and the thrill of winning unique prizes, all while raising crucial funds to support Catholic Charities of Orange County's programs.⁠

Thank you to all who attended, donated, and volunteered - you helped make a meaningful impact!
“I have seen the Lord!” - John 20:18⁠

Today we celebrate the feast of St. Mary Magdalene, the "Apostle to the Apostles," who was the first to encounter the risen Christ and proclaim His Resurrection to the world. This occasion prompts us to reflect on our own call to conversion, to love Christ deeply, and to share the Good News with boldness and joy.⁠
⁠
May St. Mary Magdalene be the inspiration in our pursuit of faith, love, and service. St. Mary Magdalene, pray for us!⁠
With great joy, we extend our heartfelt congratulations to Bishop Kevin Vann oc.bishop on the celebration of the 20th anniversary of his ⁠
EPISCOPAL ORDINATION⁠

“You are a true example of servant leadership, and I am deeply honored to be part of your ministry in the Diocese of Orange. I am very grateful for your support of Catholic Charities and service we provide to the Diocese”- Ellen Roy, Executive Director, Catholic Charities of Orange County.⁠
Due to recent federal and state budget cuts, Cantlay Food Distribution needs your help now more than ever.

Thousands of our neighbors in Orange County are at risk of going hungry, especially children and senior citizens. Every donation, large or small, provides nourishment and dignity.

Be the reason someone doesn’t go to bed hungry.

🎬🎥 The original video was part of CCOC Lenten Journey, in which Deacon Tom @orangediocese talks about the ultimate goal in our faith: to serve our neighbor above our interest, to seek to do good and seek to that joyfully. 

Cantlay Food Distribution Center serves over a 1000 families a day and is also a home to the Garden of Hope 🪴 and nutrition and physical education classes offered to senior citizens by our Health and Wellness team.

Last weekend, Catholic Charities of Orange County joined the Diocese of Orange at Marian Days 2025 - *Walking with Mary* at Christ Cathedral in Garden Grove.

Set in the vibrant festival honoring Our Lady of La Vang, our team hosted an outreach table, where we offered information about our community programs and services.
Festivities included youth and young adult activities, ministry showcases, prayer sessions, and a lively carnival atmosphere.

It was a joy to connect with hundreds of families and faith-seekers, strengthening out mission in service and solidarity.
Thank you to our wonderful staff who participated.
