    Steps to become ONE with the Church
    June 17, 2021
    My name is Tex Phelps and I am the new Director of Youth and Young Adult Ministry. In my position one of my favorite parts of the job is visiting different parish communities and the beautiful churches across the diocese. In my previous positions in Beaumont, Savannah, Maryland and Washington DC, I have been very blessed to visit many parishes and be a part of parish celebrations of the Liturgy and other special occasions. It is always an honor and a privilege to worship alongside different communities with the same faith. It brings us together as ONE.

  • Remember keep holy the Sabbath
    Remember keep holy the Sabbath
    June 3, 2021
    Beginning in grade school, we all were taught the 10 Commandments. These are God’s laws, given to Moses to be obeyed by God’s people. The commandments direct us not to lie, not to steal, not to commit adultery, not to kill, etc. We know God was serious about all the ones I just mentioned, but somehow we have the idea that God is not as serious about the commandment to keep holy the Sabbath. However, the Bible makes it clear that God is as serious about the commandment to keep holy the Sabbath as He is about the commandment not to kill. God commands that we keep the seventh day as the day that we gather and worship Him.

  • Stewardship typically starts with an invitation
    Stewardship typically starts with an invitation
    May 7, 2021
    A wise priest once told me that stewardship is much more than the “Sermon on the Amount.” Sure, tithing is certainly a part of stewardship, but only one piece. God calls us to use all our gifts and talents to glorify Him, serve others and fulfill His calling in our life. That is why He so generously gave us the gifts of time, talents and treasure. So how can we get started?

    Diaconado en Español: Vengan a Ver – Come and See
    March 24, 2021
    La cosecha es abundante, pero los trabajadores son pocos. Rueguen, pues, al dueño de la cosecha que envíe trabajadores a recoger su cosecha. Estas palabras de Jesús recogidas por San Mateo en su evangelio son tan ciertas hoy como lo fueron hace 2000 años. El número de Católicos hispanos es abundante en la Arquidiócesis de Mobile, pero el número de jornaleros, de ministros ordenados que hablen español y que puedan ir a la viña del señor a llevar la palabra, a ofrecer los sacramentos, a acompañar a un pueblo hambriento por escuchar el evangelio en su idioma, es pequeño.

    Prayer is essential for us to grow in holiness
    January 28, 2021
    Last time I talked about my desire to be holy and laid out some ideas for how to work toward that.  I focused on the human dimension of trying to grow.  This time I want to supplement what I did last time by talking about prayer and how essential prayer is to us growing in holiness, because without prayer we are just engaging in self-help techniques.
