The San Pedro Pastoral Region is a pastoral region of the Archdiocese of Los Angeles in the Roman Catholic Church. It covers the City of Long Beach and southern Los Angeles County in California, with its headquarters in Lakewood. In 1986, Los Angeles Archbishop Roger Mahony divided the archdiocese into five pastoral regions to make church leaders more accessible to parishioners. This pastoral region is divided into four deaneries.
As of 2024, the regional auxiliary bishop is Marc V. Trudeau. The region has 67 parishes, eight high schools and 53 elementary schools. The two Catholic hospitals in this region, Providence Little Company of Mary Medical Center, Torrance, and Little Company of Mary Hospital, San Pedro, are not operated by the archdiocese. The region has no Spanish missions or Catholic universities.
