The peacock you see on our site and in our church is an ancient Christian symbol of resurrection. This is appropriate to us because our patron, St. Victor, played an important role in detrermining when Easter is celebrated.

St. Victor's Catholic Church serves the residents of West Hollywood and the sourrounding areas of Los Angeles. Founded in 1906, it is the oldest institution in West Hollywood.

St. Victor's Parish serves a diverse and cosmopolitan community. We welcome all, regardless of race, nationality, gender or sexual orientation. Members of the community who were not raised in the Catholic tradition are also welcome to visit and learn more about our faith, and those who are not now practicing their Catholic faith will also find a welcoming environment in which to reacquaint themselves with their heritage.We maintain a proactive program of outreach to the local gay and lesbian community, and provide the region with an AIDS memorial chapel.

An exceptional choir, one of the best in Southern California, complements our 10:30 a.m. Sunday liturgy and is accompanied by an orchestra on special occasions. Our organ is considered one of the finest such instruments in the archdiocese of Los Angeles.

We are committed to serve the poor and outcast. We feed dozens of poor people every day and conduct food and clothing drives at various times throughout the year.

We are an urban community of faith, striving to serve the Lord and live the gospel according to our ancient Catholic tradition.
