Mass times

Dear Friends,

Even though it is a holiday weekend, we will still be delivering our monthly food donations to the East Spring Branch Food Pantry early Monday morning. Please bring your food donations with you when you come to Mass this weekend. The food carts are inside the main worship space at the statues of Joseph with the child Jesus to your left, and Mary to your right.

We will have our regular 9:00am Mass on Monday, Labor Day.

The second collection this weekend is to support the Catholic University of St. Thomas here in Houston.

Enjoy your holiday weekend and be safe,

Fr. Niall

Our Parish is on a journey to know, love, and serve Christ as a community. Together, we must embrace Christ’s vision for missionary discipleship so our parish can thrive and be a place for others to grow together in faith. 

The Archdiocese of Galveston-Houston, in partnership with Catholic Leadership Institute, is sponsoring our parish in the Disciple Maker Index (DMI). The very first step in this process involves assessing our greatest strengths and opportunities, and that is where the Disciple Maker Index (DMI) comes in! The DMI is an important survey tool that invites you to reflect on your discipleship journey here at St. Catherine of Siena.

The Disciple Maker Index is designed to:

• Invite parishioners to reflect on their journey of discipleship.
• Enable parish leadership to make data-driven decisions. 
• Help parishioners grow in their faith.

The 10–15-minute survey will be accessed through an online link from September 27 to October 25, 2026. We ask that you reflect on your own spiritual growth and provide your perspective on our parish’s efforts to help you grow in relationship with Christ. All responses will be confidential, and the parish will only receive information about the community as a whole. We will share the link with you a bit closer to the launch of the survey. Paper surveys will also be available for those who do not have the ability to complete the survey online.

Together we must embrace Christ’s vision for missionary discipleship so our parish can thrive and be a place for others to grow together in faith.

Thank you for helping with this important project and please continue to pray for this intention and for the growth and protection of our parish. 

Are you interested in having a conversation about your spiritual life - faith journey?   

This is often referred to as Spiritual Direction, simply looking at your life in the context of your relationship with God and others.
