Father Mike, as he is known--he doesn't use Gutierrez--leads a parish
of 10,000 families with a focus on Filipino and Hispanic communities. He has increased participation in religious and educational programs,
youth and family ministry, and allows the church to bring attention and
encourage activism on issues impacting the area. He is an integral part of the 32nd District's, my district, annual
immigration clinic event and is known for his joviality and smiling
consistently. Since my move to the California 32nd, he has been helpful in many
issues and events that I have put forth, recognized by the California
State Legislature and the Archdiocese of Los Angeles for support of
social issues. Father, thank you.
