Santo Niño de Atocha Church began as a religious formation center called Clark Street Chapel under Our Lady of the Light Parish. On June 19, 1979, Bishop Patrick F. Flores made the church a parish and worshippers chose the name Santo Niño de Atocha. The Blessed Sacrament Chapel was renovated under the direction of Reverend Joe Molina and consecrated by Bishop Armando X. Ochoa, D.D. on February 3, 2008.
This fund helps support the life and programs of the parish.
Endowment funds provide a vehicle through which individuals make outright or planned gifts that will have an everlasting impact on the ministry/parish/school. In time the income generated by the gift will far exceed the original donation.
As a result, endowed funds provide a perpetual, supplemental source of income for such things as the enhancement of programs and ministries, facilities maintenance, scholarships and seminary assistance, priest retirement, etc. Learn more about endowment funds.
