Welcome to the Corpus Christi website! Corpus Christi Parish is located in Pacific Palisades, California. We are about fifty years old, and a parish of about 2,300 families. We have a wonderful Catholic elementary school, K-8, with 300 students, representing about 200 families. Pacific Palisades is a small community on the Westside of Los Angeles. We are actually in the city of Los Angeles, even though you would never guess that when you walk around the Palisades community, with its trees, its parks, and its views of the ocean. God has really blessed us here and we are reminded of it daily because of the beauty that surrounds us. Fr. Richard Cotter was the founding pastor of Corpus Christi back in 1950, and since then the Catholic community has grown and developed to be truly a Vatican II people.

Our parish has a wonderful religious education program serving those who are not part of the Catholic school system, and we have a wonderful service program responding to the needs of the Catholic community.

I hope you enjoy journeying through our site, and if we can help in any way, feel free to contact us. If you have any questions about Corpus Christi, the Catholic Church, or the Archdiocese of Los Angeles, let us help you. Please email us at parishmail@corpuschristichurch.com.

Thank you so much and as Padre Serra once said,
"Siempre Adelante!" which means, "forever forward".
