Catholic Charities of East Texas

December 26, 2012

Wonderful celebrations have marked the past several weeks; the rosaries in honor of Our Lady of Guadalupe, the procession that was near 2,000 people strong, our Advent Penance Service, celebrations of Christmas and so much more.  thank you!

Soon our annual Parish Report will be available.  So much occurs here to make the Gospel alive for so very many people.

I am always grateful for the opportunity to serve Christ and His Church.

"The Bishop has entrusted the pastoral care of the faithful of this parish to me. My dream is that we reflect Christ to all we meet."

Our parish motto is "Bringing Christ to all.  Bringing All to Christ!"

These are the words of the Venerable Antonio Margil de Jesus, O.F.M., a Franciscan missionary who first brought Christ to this part of the new world. 

In 1719 he and other Franciscans, established missions in what is now the town of Alto, Texas.
