WELCOME!
We're so glad you're here.
May the Lord in his goodness lead us all closer to him.
And by our love and service to one another, may we hear him say to us,
"Well done, my good and faithful servant... Come, share your master's joy" (Mt 25:23).

bible camp 2025
For TK/Kindergarten (potty trained) through 6th grade students
JULY 21 – 25
Registration begins May 1
This year's theme is True North - Trusting Jesus in a wild world!
Don’t miss out on Bible Camp. Saint Irenaeus’ Youth Faith Formation offers campers a faith-filled adventure complete with Bible lessons, crafts and other summer activities.
Dear brothers and sisters in Christ,
Bishop Kevin Vann of our Diocese of Orange invites you to participate in the annual Pastoral Services Appeal (PSA) to support the mission of our Diocese and the work of St. Irenaeus Church. He writes: I pray that you will again join me together as missionary disciples of Christ in supporting the Pastoral Services Appeal campaign. We will again bring the love of Jesus into our parishes and schools, our homes and neighborhoods, as we live his Gospel message.
For every dollar given, 95 cents goes directly to the mission and ministries below:
Parish Support (30%)
Catholic Schools (20%)
Vocations Formation & Support (20%)
Priest Retirement (15%)
Outreach (10%)
Your contribution last year provided assistance to 56 retired priests, 28 seminarians in formation, more than 615,000 families and individuals in need, and education and learning support to over 17,000 students in our Catholic schools. Those who gave to the PSA last year will soon receive a letter from Bishop Vann thanking you for your support.
With the generous support of St. Irenaeus parishioners, the parish surpassed our last year's allotted goal of $201,000. Saint Irenaeus' allotted goal is the same this year . Any amount collected over this goal goes back to the parish for its special projects or ministry.
Participating in the annual PSA is an invitation and a sacred duty. Please discuss it with your family, pray about it, and make a donation. Each family or person’s financial situation is different. No gift is too big or too small. You may return the PSA pledge card at any Sunday Mass or at the parish office. You may also make a donation online below.
On behalf of Bishop Vann, I thank you for your generosity and for making a lasting impact for you, your family, the parish and the Church.
Fr. Binh
