Catholic education is an extra tool for parents who value their child's education. It is not only a guarantee of a good education but a choice that thrives for excellence. Mother of Sorrows Catholic School adds to your investment into your child's future a sense of belonging to a community that empowers their minds and souls. Living by Christian values and fostering a healthy relationship with their peers, a new sense of humanity is toiled in each classroom and school activities. I pray that more parents may share in the privilege of counting their children among our students.
Sincerely,
Rev. Father Jose Alberto Pimentel
Pastor, Mother of Sorrows Catholic Church

Mother of Sorrows Parish History
-
Bishop John J. Cantwell established Mother of Sorrows Parish in 1923. Father Joseph Loughran was the first pastor, and the church was dedicated in 1926. Monsignor William O’Donnell served as pastor for 31 years and was responsible for starting Mother of Sorrows School, which opened in 1948 and was staffed by The Sisters of Notre Dame de Namur.
Father Perry Leiker supervised a liturgical renovation during his 12-year pastorate as the church celebrated its 75th anniversary. Father Dario Miranda was named administrator in 1999 and pastor in 2001. In 2011, Father Abel Loera became pastor of Mother of Sorrows Parish.
