Join us this Summer!
Incoming 3rd – Graduating Seniors: Join us for the annual Altar Server Jamboree! We will have Mass, fun games, prayer, competitions, a water balloon fight, plenty of food, and the opportunity to grow both as a server and a disciple of Jesus. This year we are excited that we will have several Diocese of Austin seminarians helping to lead the activities.
