Parish Stewardship
If someone who has worldly means sees a brother in need and refuses him compassion, how can the love of God remain in him? Children, let us love not in word or speech but in deed and truth.- 1 John 3: 17-18

Generous Giving
At its core, tithing is an acknowledgement that the gifts or talents we have were entrusted to us by God, and are intended to be used for His glory and to spread the gospel. Tithing allows parishes to meet day-to-day needs, allocate funds for emergencies and fund future projects. It is understood, that as a community of faith, we are to provide for the needs of the Church. Fr. Hector Vega recommends that we fulfill the needs by tithing 5% of our income to the parish, 4% to charities of our choice, and 1% to the Diocese.
Listed below are tithing guidelines that may help you in deciding your recommended weekly sacrifice to the parish.

Prayer for Our Troops
Almighty and eternal God, those who take refuge in you will be glad and forever will shout for joy. Protect our troops as they discharge their duties. Protect them with the shield of your strength and keep them safe from all evil and harm. May the power of your love enable them to return home in safety, that with all who love them, they may ever praise you for your loving care. We ask this through Christ our Lord.

Festival Raffle Tickets
Thank you to all who have signed for raffle tickets!
We’re off to a great start and anticipate topping last year’s Raffle and making this year’s the most successful one yet! To be eligible for the second Early Bird Drawing,” please return your tickets (entire booklets - preferred) along with a check(s) or cash by or before the 5:00 p.m. Vigil Mass on Sunday, July 23. You may return your tickets to the Parish Office (M-F) or drop them off at the Fall Festival Table (Weekends) located at the entrance to the Church. Thank you to all who have already returned your raffle tickets! Good Luck!
Raffle ticket booklets are available in the Parish Office (M-F) or at the Fall Festival Table (Weekends) up to and throughout the Fall Festival. Please stop by! The raffle tickets that were distributed June 10 and 11 contained a typographical error in the heading “2016” instead of “2017,” we have since ‘blacked out’ that date on the remaining tickets. More importantly, the date for the final drawing at the bottom of the ticket is correct “September 23, 2017.” We apologize for this oversight and appreciate your understanding.

EMHC Training
August 24, 2017, a training session will be conducted for all current and new Extra Ordinary Ministers of Holy Communion (EMHC). If you are looking for a Ministry or just want to see what is involved being an EMHC, this is your opportunity. The commissioning of new EMHC’s and re-commissioning of current EMHC will occur September 16 and 17, 2017 at all Masses. EMHC’s are commissioned for a period of 2 years per requirements of the Diocese of Austin. You must also be current in the Ethics & Integrity (EIM) training. Workshops for EIM are sponsored by the Diocese of Austin.
The first 30 minutes of the training will be an introduction and a video titled “Lamb of God” narrated by Matthew Leonard. The last 30 minutes will be on the practical practice of giving communion under both species at Mass and home bounded. The “Lamb of God” video will give all of us a very interesting perspective of the summit belief of the Church that Christ is present in the Eucharist. It is a must see for all Catholics.
If you have questions regarding this training please email Henry Casas at henrycasas@

Follow in the Footsteps of St. Paul
Have you ever thought about the places Saint Paul lived and visited, where he wrote his many letters to the Corinthians, Phillippians or Thessalonians that we often read on Sundays? Would you like to celebrate Mass at the "House of the Virgin Mary" in Ephesus, or see the beauty of the Islands that he saw? If so, you are invited to join Father Johnson, our Spiritual Director and many others as we travel from Austin to Greece on a Catholic Pilgrimage! We leave September 30 and return October 10. To find out more, please contact Gina Rollman at ginarollman65@gmail.com. You won't be disappointed!
