About the book - Commissioned by Bishop Joe S. Vásquez in celebration of our 75th Anniversary, this beautifully bound book captures the history and images of our vast diocese. From its earliest days, when residents, settlers and newly arrived migrants came to Texas, building towns and living their Catholic faith, to the present day, this almost 300-page book tells the history in text and photos. Photos of all parishes, missions, convents, schools, hospitals and more live in this compilation.
The Treasures of the Diocese of Austin book is a keepsake and will be a wonderful addition to every home. Books are available in English and Spanish.
An Update on Dear Friends
From Sr. Sharon
May the infinite love of Jesus fill your life with hope and your season with joy.
Fr. Chuck received this Christmas greeting from Sr. Sharon. She asked him to share her best with the parish. Sr. Sharon made such a difference in our parish with her gifts of spiritual direction, the establishment of Small Christian Communities and so much more. We are ever grateful for her ministry among us. Consider sending Sr. Sharon a note or card at this address ~

About Fr. Chuck Cunniff, CSP
Not long ago we prayed for comfort and healing for Fr. Chuck Cunniff whom many will remember from his time with us in the early 90s. Our pastor reports that he's doing well after treatments, however, he mourns the recent loss of his father, Charles E. Cunniff, Jr.
