- Very Reverend James A. Misko, Diocesan Administrator
With deep sadness and fraternal concern for the families and staff of Annunciation Catholic School in Minneapolis at the news of today’s shooting, I ask that each of us across the Diocese of Austin meet our brothers and sisters of Annunciation School in our thoughts and prayers today, and in the coming weeks.
- Very Reverend James A. Misko, Diocesan Administrator
In union with Bishop-designate Daniel E. Garcia, I invite you to consider supporting those in need of immediate assistance by giving to Catholic Charities of San Antonio and our own Catholic Charities of Central Texas, both of which stand ready to assist those displaced and in need of immediate support during this time of distress.
On July 2, 2025, Pope Leo XIV appointed Most Reverend Daniel E. Garcia the sixth bishop of Austin. Father James Misko will remain the Diocesan Administrator until Bishop Garcia's date of installation (to be determined at a later time). For more information on Bishop Daniel E. Garcia, click here.
