News for the weekend of 8/23 & 8/24/2025

Thanks to your generosity, we raised $22,792.00 for the Diocesan Annual Mission Appeal last weekend. Money is now transferred to the Diocese to forward it to the assigned Missionary Group.

Don’t forget to mark your calendar for the 2025 Fiesta event and come with your family to enjoy the gathering. We have professional Vietnamese singers on Friday night, the Toro Azul Band on Saturday night, and the Ramon Murillo Banda for Sunday night. The year we have focused on having live entertainment in the evenings. The Fiesta committee is working hard to make this happen. Thank you to hundreds of volunteers from all the ministries/groups for lending their talents, their time, and their support to this year’s Fiesta.  Join us and volunteer your time by emailing your contact to fiesta.polycarp@gmail.com.

Thank you to the many families/individuals who have donated their time, money, and supplies to support our 2025 Fiesta program. We still need more supplies and donations of the following items for our 2025 Fiesta: canned soda (no glass), 8.5″ paper plates, bottled water (16.9 oz no glass), and to-go containers.  Donations can be brought to the parish office during office hours. 

Calling all St. Polycarp bakers, the Fiesta is fast approaching.  The Sweet shop needs baked pastries such as cookies, cupcakes, bread, etc.   Please donate and support our booth.  Contact Connie Cortes, 714 496-9435 or Cristina Rivas, 714 603-0067.  Thanks in advance for your support.
