OUR PARISH: St. Anthony's Catholic Church was established as a Catholic parish in 1917 in Manteca, California. In the early 1900s, Portuguese dairy farmers who migrated to the area after the opening of the irrigation district in 1909, would travel by horse and buggy for about an hour to nearby mission churches to attend Mass. In 1913, Father William McGough started coming to Manteca twice a month to say Mass upstairs in the Cowell Building (now the Bernacchi Building). In late 1915, a group of Catholics met at the Board of Trade Hall (now Manteca Bedquarters) and planned the construction of a new church to seat 350 people at a cost of $4,000. More than 100 years later, St. Anthony's has blossomed into a multicultural parish serving over 5,600 families. The vision is to continue St. Anthony's missionary roots to build a strong family of faith around Jesus Christ in the Eucharist.

HOW TO APPLY: Interested applicants should email a cover letter, resume and references to no later than Wednesday, December 31, 2025.
