Saint Pancratius Catholic Church

I’ve been here for many a wedding and many a funeral. It’s a wonderful church and the people here give their all to make events special. Disregard all negative reviews. I’m not Catholic. The congregation at St. Pancratius work long hours to make each event as best as can be. There is nothing but positive energy here.

Guys, a church is not a thing to rate. church is church and it’s not like you are there to judge the church. YOU ARE THERE TO WORSHIP! God judges you and you don’t! it’s his House.

If I could give 0 stars for very poor customer service in the front office rectory by Nati I would.
We have been parishioners for years donating money weekly and this lady gave my mother trouble for wanting to purchase 4 candles to light up as an offering… She told my mom she had to go to the church now and my mom did not want to go to the church alone, as the church is completely empty. Nati told her she would send someone to go with her, but my mom did not understand why she would have to have someone waiting while she is in prayer.
We are disappointed with the rude and inconsiderate manners of the rectory’s front office staff. You would think church employees would be friendly and people of God, but this wasn’t the case here!

Small, intimate, loving… That’s this church very strong spiritual guidance by our priest. He’s clear and kind with his message. He’s a doer not just a talker.

We were in the area for lunch and shopping and decided the visit a local church for mass This is something we have done many times It can be very enjoyable. except in this case.
St Pancratius was on the way back to the freeway so we stopped. We weren’t sure it was a catholic church so we circled around and looked for signs Unclear we parked the car and walked around.
The front door was locked and it looked closed. Looked almost like a prison.
We spotted two women coming from to next building which turned out to be the rectory. My wife asked «is this a Catholic church? «as one answered «Roman Catholic». The other woman just looked annoyed.
My wife walked with them as one asked «don’t you have an app?» No, we both have flip phones. «well you’ll have to get smart phones» They entered the side door in the back without another word
Big surprise we didn’t stay for mass. I think these two women would have made Jesus feel unwelcome, If he didn’t look right or give the right answers to their questions.
Peace be with you

This is a nice, simple church, but I kinda like that. You really do get a sense that there is a strong community between those who come here.
I only have 2 small complaints. The first is that getting out of the parking lot can get tricky as a line to turn onto the street backs up super fast.
My second is that the A/​C in the church has 2 settings: off & freezing. I always bring a coat to mass. Even when it’s 100 degrees outside.

church is big, great spot to throw an event. play ground is big can have a huge car show place would make alot of money if they did one here.

Most of the parishioners are o.k. Pastor talks the talk but does not walk the!!!

I love this Church. Just down the street from my mom’s house… we all go together as a family. Love the faithfulness of the families that attend, the priests (even those that are visiting), and the members of the church who actively lead others with their service. Such a great little gem on the edge of Lakewood Mutuals neighborhood. What a great place to renew your Catholic faith as well. I was far from my faith for 15 years and St. Pancratius helped renew my love for Catholicism and being part of a Catholic church community.

a very sincere church with a very small and sincere congregation. I think I would recommend to people not come here just so that it remains small and intimate.

I actually love the sermons here. Well… the one from the professorial priest… I forgot his name.
Woo!

Went this morning & it was touching. Priest said how we have to work on ourselves even if there are all these reforms in our world. I think he is right. Our leaders definitely need to look inside and work on their values and beliefs before changing the world. Wish the politicians could do the same and people in power. Oh, how I wish I could be a catalyst for positive change, but I feel like a tiny tadpole in an ocean full of sharks!

Some call me sacrilegious, a heathen, a pagan…
I once passed out in a Catholic church and was told it was God punishing me…
A priest told my ex-​girlfriend that we were spiritually incompaitible…
I’ve been told by enough «Christians» that I’m going to hell…
I’ve never been baptized… I’ve never learned the Our Father, the Apostle’s Creed or any of the other prayers… You know what though?, I’d like to think I still have time to figure stuff out here…
Saint Pancratius Church has a strong parish with strong faith… but what I enjoy most is that I can walk in alone on a Sunday, and they accept me as part of the human family… I may be taking an unconventional path, but as I peer around, we’re all looking for the same thing.
Thank you Father…
