Recent Activities
Parish Advent Retreat
On Sunday, December 4th, St Victor Parish hosted our 5th Annual Advent Retreat, which centered on the themes of "Salvation History" (presented by Fr John Offor) and "The Eucharist" (presented by Deacon Carl Bugarin). Activities included crafting Covenant ornaments, creating a Monstrance, and coloring a thematic placemat. An adoration ceremony set the tone for reflection and prayer. The event ended with a bountiful meal, shared together.
It was a wonderful way to kick off the new liturgical year and to focus on the Advent Season.
Dedication of the Marian Garden
September 8, 2022:
Our new Marian Prayer Garden was blessed and dedicated on the Nativity of the Blessed Virgin Mary. All are invited to spend some time in prayer in our beautiful new setting.
FYI: The grotto and "Garden of Gethsemane" area are works in progress and will be completed soon. See artist's rendering in photos below as to how completed Marian Prayer Garden will look.
St Victor Feast Day
July 28, 2022:
St Victor Parish celebrated our Patron Saint Feast Day with an outdoor mass, catered BBQ, music, and family games. The ordination anniversaries of our priests (present and retired)
were also celebrated:
Mgsr Perata: 64 years
Fr Mark: 15 years
Fr John: 20 years
Fr Allen: 13 years
It was a wonderful evening of fun and fellowship.
Jubilee Games for Vocations

The Diocese of San Jose hosted the 2nd Annual Jubilee Soccer Games for Vocations at Archbishop Mitty High School on Saturday, July 30th. Priests and Seminarians competed in a game for the St. Joseph Cup, with high school boys filling out both teams. Fr John captained the Workers (Priests) Team and a group of St Victor parishioners were there to cheer him on. Bishop Oscar Cantú was suited up
and on the field as well. The game was hard-fought and ended in a tie, 2-2.
Sisters and Postulants competed in a second game for the St. Clare Cup, with high school girls filling out both teams. The Sisters competed well, but fell to the Postulants with a final score of 3-1.
It was a fun family event, and support for vocations was successful.
