Welcome to Immaculate Heart of Mary Church

Message from the Pastor

EFFECTIVE IMMEDIATELY
As the Pastor or Immaculate Heart of Mary Church it is my duty and responsibility to look out for the welfare and safety of our Parish Community. COVID-19 (coronavirus) continues to affect many people in the US and it is our responsibility to help control the spread of this virus in any way we can. Today we received a written decree from our Archbishop of San Antonio. As such the following changes will be implemented immediately.
Per a Decree issued by Archbishop Gustavo Garcia-Siller, MSpS of the Archdiocese of San Antonio:
All Sunday Masses are hereby cancelled/suspended starting this weekend, March 14-15.
We will also be suspending Daily Mass and all non-essential gatherings at the parish as advised by the Archbishop. This includes Religious Education, Sunday Breakfast, Thursday Holy Hour and Friday Stations of the Cross.
We encourage viewing and participating in the daily and Sunday Masses via CTSA, other television outlets or through archdiocesan electronic media.
This Decree is effective immediately and remains in effect until revoked by Archbishop Gustavo.
Taking into consideration the health and welfare of the staff of Immaculate Heart of Mary Church we will also implement new office hours for the duration of this decree. The office will now be open only Monday thru Friday from 9am-1pm. These hours are subject to change at the Pastor’s discretion or recommendation of the Chancery of the Archdiocese of San Antonio.
Know that I am with you as we face this crisis together. Let us pray for the health and safety of our great nation as we fight to overcome COVID-19.
"On the evening of the evening of that first day of the week when the doors were locked, where the disciples* were, for fear of the Jews, Jesus came and stood in their midst and said to them, “Peace be with you.”
In Christ’s Love,
Fr. Benjamin Romero, CMF

Sepan que estoy con usted mientras enfrentamos esta crisis juntos. Oremos por la salud y la seguridad de nuestra gran nación mientras luchamos para superar COVID-19.
