Year of St. Joseph

December 8, 2020 – December 8, 2021

This year marks the 150^th Anniversary of Pope Pius IX’s decree, Quemadmodum Deus, naming Saint Joseph , husband of the Blessed Virgin Mary and foster-father of Jesus, as the Patron of the Universal Church .  In commemoration of this anniversary and recognizing the fitting time for the Church to invoke the intercession of this guardian, His Holiness, Pope Francis has declared this year as a “Year of Saint Joseph” to be observed in the Universal Church from December 8, 2020 to December 8, 2021. St. Joseph prays for us!

The Archdiocesan website has a page dedicated to the Year of St. Joseph, which began in December and runs through the liturgical year. Please visit and share this link, which includes the history of St. Joseph in the church, prayers of devotion and more.

Impostor Priest Email/Texting Scams
Recently, there have been several reports of fraudulent email solicitations for financial support, usually in the form of gift cards, coming from email accounts identifying as Archdiocesan priests, including Cardinal DiNardo.

Please be advised that Father Thuy would never make such appeals to the parish community requesting gift cards or any financial assistance.  If you receive such email or text, please notify the parish office immediately. You can also visit the Attorney General, Ken Paxton’s website at www.texasattorneygeneral.gov.  Click on Scam Alert: “AG Paxton Warns Texans about Text Message Scam”.
