In preparation for the meeting of our Holy Father Pope Leo XIV with the heads of eastern churches and the presidents of Episcopal conferences on October 7 through 14, 2026, I ask for your help and participation in a survey created for the faithful in the Diocese of Austin.
In our Catholic Services Appeal (CSA), the Diocese of Austin tells one story with many voices. It is heard in the “yes” of a seminarian, the quiet service of a retired priest, the prayer of a Catholic school student, the family welcomed in a moment of need, the young adult who discovers a home in campus ministry, and the parish whose doors remain open ready to receive the People of God.
May we continue to work together for the common good and for a society in which all citizens are able to participate fully and faithfully in our democracy.
