St. Dominic Catholic Church

Welcome to the Saint Dominic Parish Web site! Our Parish exists to meet the needs of its members and to help witness the transforming love of Jesus Christ in our lives.  Our Parish is involved in many activities designed to meet our community  needs.  We worship together as a community of believers.  We support one another in living Christian values and beliefs.  We nurture the faith of our members in a variety of ways including adult education and catechetical programs for the children and the young people of our community. 
  
We hope that we can serve your religious needs by the quality of our Liturgy which constitutes the focal point of any Catholic Community.  If you have questions please call us.  We look forward to having you share your gifts with us.

SEPTEMBER 15,, 2020

My dear Parishioners of St. Dominic Church,
 
At this time, the obligation to attend Mass on Sundays and Holy Days of Obligation remains suspended until further notice.  It is still recommended that people especially those who are 65 and older or are vulnerable should remain at home and participate by livestream.

I offer the Holy Mass every day  in person and virtually (live streaming) for your intentions.   We also have masses on Sundays at 9:30 am & 1 pm in Spanish and 11:15 am in English & on Saturday 6 PM anticipated mass in English. At this time, our Sunday 8 AM Mass is cancelled until further notice.

Confessions are heard on Saturdays  in the Church observing   social distancing along with all CDC  requirements.  Parishioners are asked to  wear masks entering the Church.  Hand sanitizer is available at the entrance of the Church and everyone is encouraged to bring their own hand sanitizer.  Confessions on Saturdays are from 5:00pm to 5:45 pm.   

The Archdiocese DSF & Ignite  Appeals are  underway.   Please give what your means allow.
 
May God bless you through the intercession of Our Blessed Mother & our father ST. Dominic de Guzman.
 
Sincerely in Christ,

Fr. Roger Estorque

During these difficult days,  please take good care of yourself and   let us be sure to pray for one another

WEEKLY COLLECTIONS
Please continue to support St Dominic Parish during this time
of crisis.  The best way for our congregation to sustain the
parish is by using the parish online giving service. 
You can imagine how much it would mean to the Parish to
receive some stream of income during these times when
collections are not being taken up manually.
 
Please visit our parish website  www.stdominichouston.org and  click on “online giving”" logo.  Sign up to support St. Dominic  Parish. 
Of course, dropping off your envelope at the parish office  or  sending it in by mail is always an option.  You may also drop your  donations in the boxes located at the entrance  of the Church.

Thank you and  God bless all of you and keep you safe.

Your faithful stewardship of Our Church is needed:
During this time of national crisis and the temporary suspension of Church activities in our Archdiocese, we are working hard to maintain current operations of our church and office.  We can only accomplish this task with your financial help.  Now more than ever, we are respectfully asking all of our church parishioners to continue their support of our parish by making their weekly contributions to both the day to day operations of the parish (normally our first collection) and the needed support for our Capital Campaign (our normal second collection) which pays the loan debt on our worship space.  

 How you can help:
1)  Those who receive  church  envelopes through the mail…you may drop off your donations through the mail slot in the front door of the parish office  any time during the week or weekend .

2)  You may also set up with your bank an  automatic  withdrawal  to make your contributions directly from  your  bank to  our Church

We sincerely want to thank all our parishioners and friends who make Our Church their place of worship.  Especially now, we are most grateful for your love, generosity and faithfulness to our efforts.  May God bless you and your family and keep you safe during these challenging times.
