In his August 2026 Shepherd’s Message, Archbishop Joe S. Vásquez writes that “Catholic education is essential to the mission of the Catholic Church. Before He ascended to God the Father, Jesus commissioned His disciples to ‘go and make disciples of all nations.’ The Church is called to evangelize, and evangelization is at the heart of Catholic education.”

Today is the Solemnity of the Assumption of the Blessed Virgin Mary. We honor Mary, who, at the end of her earthly life, was assumed body and soul into heavenly glory! In the dioceses of the United States, because this feast falls on a Saturday, the obligation to attend Mass is abrogated. Blessed Virgin Mary, pray for us!

A powerful 7.4 magnitude earthquake struck western Colombia, causing widespread destruction across multiple communities.

Our sisters and brothers in Colombia urgently need our help. Your donation will help provide critical relief to families and communities struggling to recover ➡️ https://brnw.ch/21x4OLF.

Catholic Relief Services is working through Caritas Colombia, whose extensive network in the affected areas is identifying the most urgent needs and providing immediate assistance, including safe shelter, food, clean water and support for families who have lost everything.

In moments like this, our faith calls us to care for one another. Your generosity can be a tangible sign of God's love and a source of hope for families enduring this crisis.

Something amazing happened in downtown Houston last night!

Over 2,200 high school teens who attended the Archdiocesan Youth Conference, along with their youth ministers and chaperones, participated in a Eucharistic procession outside the George R. Brown Convention Center, culminating in a time of Eucharistic adoration outside at Discovery Green. Through prayer, song, and witness, these young people publicly and without shame shared their faith in Jesus Christ and the Church.

May their example inspire us all to boldly proclaim the Gospel and to be public witnesses of our faith to all we encounter.
