FROM THE PASTOR’S DESK...
August 31, 2014
Dear Friends,
As you know from our weekly bulletins over the past few weeks, we are delighted to welcome
several new parish staff members. These hires are the result of existing staff member retirements or replacing those who have moved on to other opportunities. It has allowed me to step
back and look at the needs of St. Andrew Parish going forward. Thankfully, we are a vibrant parish that is growing and changing – we now have 75 volunteer ministries. As a result, the responsibilities and titles of staff positions also have changed to meet the needs of the times. These
new people will allow me to enhance the focus of my time on the pastoral and spiritual needs of
the parish while not adding any substantial costs to the parish budget. For example, in last week’s
bulletin we introduced our new Administrative Director, Denise Peña. Mrs. Peña is replacing my
former assistant, Mrs. Esther Luna. In consultation with parish leaders and our Finance Council,
the position was re-defined so that some of my more administrative responsibilities can be undertaken by her. This gradual transition of certain administrative responsibilities will enable me
to spend more of my time on those spiritual and pastoral activities which are so important to me
and to all of you.
In addition to parish staff, there are also staffing changes in our parish school. Like most parishes, St. Andrew School must operate on a self-sustaining basis, since the Church itself has so
many demands for funds. Consequently, the Board of St. Andrew School maintains a school
budget separate from the parish budget. We just commenced the 2014-2015 academic year with
a record number of students 255, post the recession. However, to maintain tuition costs at a reasonable level making a Catholic education accessible for families, many schools rely on outside
donations. As noted in a recent bulletin, Ms. Belinda Resendez has been appointed to the newly
-created position of Director of Development & Marketing at St. Andrew School to assist our
parish school’s principal, Dr. Kenneth Foersch, and the school’s Board [of Trustees] in seeking
grants, and building student enrollment. Her salary is paid by our school.
Please join me in welcoming these talented new members of the St. Andrew parish family. I encourage you to introduce yourselves to them and to help them become more familiar with our
wonderful parish and its people. Our goal in all staffing decisions is to better serve you, the people of St. Andrew Parish!
Sincerely yours in Christ,
Fr. Paul A. Sustayta
Pastor

DENIS PEÑA, ADMINISTRATIVE DIRECTOR
Dear Parishioners,
I am excited to be joining the Saint Andrew Family! Here at Saint Andrew, there is
such a wonderful, positive spirit and I know that now is a great time to be a part of
this growing, exciting time in our history!
I was born and raised in Los Angeles and lived in the San Francisco Bay Area for
ten years. It was there that I earned my Bachelor’s Degree in Psychology at Dominican University in San Rafael, CA. I moved back home to Los Angeles a year ago with my husband,
our two daughters, Selena and Lily, and our dog, Tucker. I have spent most of my professional career in
Financial Aid and Higher Education until recently, when I decided it was time for a change of scenery
and am moving in to the Administrative Director position on September 2nd. I longed for an opportunity to be close to home, my children and my faith-- I know that this is the perfect opportunity for me
to accomplish just that.
When I’m not on duty, you can find me cheering on the Dodgers, at the park with my girls, or putting
some elbow grease into my "new" old house. I am committed to providing exceptional service and communication for our Parishioners and welcome your input on how to improve our efforts. Thank you.
Serving with you,
Denise Peña

PARROQUIA DE SAN ANDRÉS
DEL ESCRITORO DEL PÁRROCO...
Queridos Amigos,
Como ya puede ver por nuestros boletines semanales durante las últimas semanas, estamos encantados de dar la bienvenida a varios miembros nuevos del personal de la parroquia. Estos empleos son el
resultado de las jubilaciones o reemplazar a los que han pasado a otras oportunidades. Me ha dado una
oportunidad para dar un paso atrás y mirar las necesidades de la parroquia de San Andrés. Afortunadamente, somos una parroquia vibrante que está creciendo y cambiando - ahora tenemos 75 ministerios voluntarios. Como resultado de ello, las responsabilidades y los títulos de los puestos del personal
también han cambiado para satisfacer las necesidades de los tiempos. Estas nuevas personas me permitirán mejorar el enfoque de mi tiempo en las necesidades pastorales y espirituales de la parroquia sin
añadir ningún costo sustancial en el presupuesto de la parroquia. Por ejemplo, en el boletín de la semana pasada presentamos a la nueva Directora Administrativa, Denise Peña. La Señora Peña está reemplazando a mi ex-asistente, la Señora Esther Luna. En consulta con los líderes de la parroquia y de
nuestro Consejo de Finanzas, la posición fue redefinida para que algunas de mis responsabilidades más
administrativas pueden ser realizadas por ella. Esta transición gradual de ciertas responsabilidades administrativas me permitirá dedicar más de mi tiempo en actividades espirituales y pastorales que son
tan importantes para mí y para todos ustedes.
Además del personal de la parroquia, también hay cambios de personal en nuestra escuela parroquial.
Como la mayoría de las parroquias, la escuela San Andrés debe operar sobre una base auto sostenible,
ya que la propia Iglesia tiene tantas exigencias para los fondos. En consecuencia, el comité de la escuela
de San Andrés mantiene un presupuesto escolar separado del presupuesto parroquial. Iniciamos el año
académico 2014-2015 con un número récord de estudiantes de 255, aún en la recesión. Sin embargo,
para mantener los costos de matrícula a un nivel razonable para hacer una educación católica accesible
para las familias, muchas escuelas dependen de las donaciones externas. Como se indicó en un boletín
reciente, Belinda Resendez, ha sido nombrado para el cargo recientemente creado de director de Desarrollo y Marketing de la escuela San Andrés para asistir al director de nuestra escuela parroquial, el Dr.
Kenneth Foersch, y la Junta de la escuela [de Síndicos ] en la búsqueda de subvenciones, y la construcción de la matrícula estudiantil. Su salario es pagado por nuestra escuela.
Por favor, demos la bienvenida a estos nuevos miembros talentosos de la familia de la parroquia San
Andrés. Les animo a darles la bienvenida a ellos y ayudarles a ser más familiarizados con nuestra maravillosa parroquia y su gente. ¡Nuestra meta en todas las decisiones del personal es para servir mejor a
ustedes, los feligreses de la parroquia San Andrés!
Sinceramente en Cristo,
Rev. Pablo Sustayta
Párroco
