Welcome to Our Lady of the Valley Parish

The official website for the churches of
​Saint Mary and Our Lady of Guadalupe in El Centro.

HABEMUS PAPAM!
​We have a pope!


We rejoice as the Catholic Church has announced a successor to St. Peter. His name is Robert Cardinal Prevost, the former prefect of the Dicastery for Bishops. The Holy Father has taken the name Pope Leo XIV.

Together, let us thank God and pray for the new Holy Father, Pope Leo XIV.
