Ministries, Faith and Spiritual Practices

Our clergy and volunteers provide sacraments, pastoral counseling and spiritual support to several Los Angeles area homeless shelters.  We are planning to expand this ministry to include food justice and other vital services that will support people as they transition into permanent or supportive housing.

We currently provide chaplaincy services on Skid Row, including the Hotel Cecil.

Our recovery ministry is rooted in Franciscan Spirituality, following Mustard Seed Christian Fellowship's 12 Steps to Freedom and progressive Christian practices.  

Utilizing a wide range of spiritual practices, including meditation and prayer, we can walk with you on your recovery journey through one-on-one and group support.  

We offer direction to spiritual seekers.  Spiritual Direction meets you where life faith and faith intersect, to deepen your relationship with the Divine.  Guided reflection, discussion and more can help the spiritual seeker on their journey.  Offering spiritual direction in Pasadena, the San Gabriel Valley and all of Los Angeles

The Gospel Message of Love applies to all people.  Jesus did not discriminate and did not teach hate in any way.   We seek to emulate that love in all we do.  We are an LGBTQ affirming ministry, welcoming all!

Regardless of the stage of life you or your loved ones are in, we can help you celebrate the milestone.  From naming and name change rituals to Quinceneras to Celebrations of Life, let our clergy help you incorporate the landmark in time into your faith life.

We offer the Seven Sacraments in Pasadena to all who wish to partake: Baptism, Reconciliation, Eucharist, Confirmation, Matrimony, Annointing of the Sick and Holy Orders.    

We can also help you celebrate interfaith and interspiritual services and rites. 

The guest list is God's, not ours.
