The parish's mission is to proclaim the gospel through word, sacrament, service, and community life. Catholic worship in Huntington Beach began with a Mass in a Main Street department store when the town was still called Pacific City and had a population of 582. The mission became an established parish, later received Franciscan leadership, and joined the Diocese of Orange when it formed in 1976. Ministries include altar service, music, care for people who are sick, Communion visits, faith formation, and stewardship. Visitors have several Sunday options and can use the calendar to check Holy Days or seasonal changes.
