The sacred purpose of St. Monica Parish is to build a welcoming community of faith, creating missionary disciples who make God's love visible through service to others.

Mutually Shared Vision (Archdiocese of San Antonio)

Seeking to live in sacramental communion with one another, the Archdiocese of San Antonio exists to make disciples and missionaries of Jesus Christ to prepare for the promise of Eternal Life.

  • May. 19 Tuesday of the Seventh Week of Easter, Weekday

    May 18, 2026 - 11:00pm
    Today the Roman Martyrology commemorates St. Peter Celestine (Pope Celestine V) (1210-1294), who was born in Isneria, Abruzzi, Italy as Pietro del Morrone and retired into the desert as a hermit when he was only 20. His virtues soon drew disciples around him. This was the origin of the branch of the Benedictine order known as the Celestines. He was chosen as the 192nd pope, but reigned only five months, and abdicated on December 13, 1294.
