Putting God’s Love Into Action with
San Gabriel Valley Habitat for Humanity Catholic Coalition
Habitat for Humanity Catholic Coalition Needs Your Help! You are invited to put God’s love into action by supporting the Catholic Coalition of SGV Habitat. Here are some ways you can be involved.
Virtually join with fellow Catholics from across the San Fernando and San Gabriel Valley pastoral regions to learn how you can help more people get the housing they need through Habitat for Humanity. SGV Habitat for Humanity Catholic Coalition is excited to have an opportunity to host an Open House event on Tuesday, March 9, at 6:00 pm in partnership with the Office of Life, Justice and Peace of the Archdiocese of Los Angeles. At this event SGV Habitat will showcase the work that their Catholic partners make possible. Register here for the Habitat Catholic Open House on March 9 at 6:00 pm to learn how you can create more safety and homes for your fellow Angelinos.
Best known of Habitat for Humanity’s programs is the Homeownership Program. Families and individuals who live in substandard housing may qualify for this program to own their own home. The Homeownership Application period will open again soon. The pre-application process takes place April 1 through April 30, 2021 with pre-applications accepted online only. Additional information can be found on the Habitat website here, by e-mailing homeownership@sgvhabitat.org or by calling (626) 937-2010. With your support, more families and individuals in need of a helping hand can become agents of their own change! Please consider referring someone to this program.
Another much needed service is the Home Repair Program. The Home Repair Program provides low-income homeowners with critical interior and exterior home repair assistance. Visit the SGV Habitat Home Repair Website here for more information, for FAQs, the brochure and a new form people can submit to begin the intake process.
Last but not least, you have another opportunity to participate in BUILD DAY on Saturday, April 17, 2021. We need your help! St. Luke is looking for 10 volunteers. No experience is necessary; Habitat will teach us everything we need to know on the build site and they will provide us with any needed tools. Volunteers are required to follow all safety protocols set forth by the CDC, including wearing a cloth face mask, handwashing and maintaining distancing. Volunteers can sign up at http://vhub.at/1L30U9A for a half day shift, 7:45 am to 11:30 am or 11:45 am to 3:30 pm, or a full day from 7:45 am to 3:30 pm.
For questions or more information, please call Veronica Romero West at (626) 437-1014, or e-mail her at veronica@design1west.com.
Habitat for Humanity seeks to put God’s love into action by bringing people together to build homes, communities and hope. They build strength, stability and self-reliance through shelter. Learn more about Habitat for Humanity at https://sgvhabitat.org.

Twice a year, 40 Days for Life (https://40daysforlife.com/) uses a peaceful approach of prayer, fasting, vigils and community outreach to change hearts and minds to choose life. The 40 Days for Life Spring campaign began on Wednesday, Feb. 17, and ends on March 28.
During these 40 days, you are invited to pray and fast for an end to abortion. We also ask you to consider joining with others from St. Luke and neighboring parishes to peacefully pray (wearing a mask and socially distanced) in the public right-of-way outside Planned Parenthood El Monte, at 4786 N. Peck Road (corner of Peck and Lower Azusa) during the 40-day vigil.
