Ss. Cyril & Methodius

This week the Diocese of Austin experienced a significant tragedy in the loss of one of her beloved church buildings at the Church of the Visitation in Westphalia, Texas. Bishop Vásquez and the entire diocese joins the parishioners in the sadness of this event. We are grateful for the prayers, notes and letters sent to Bishop Joe Vásquez and the parish. We know that the faith of the people of Westphalia and the Diocese of Austin remain strong and a new church will be built.
Many people have asked how they can help. In response to this, the diocese has established the Church of the Visitation Fund. While the building was insured, we know that there are always unexpected expenses in such times. Donations to the fund will be used for the immediate needs of the parish, as well as on-going expenses that the parish will encounter as it rebuilds.  Click here to donate to the fund online. Checks can be sent to the diocese at Church of the Visitation Fund, Diocese of Austin, 6225 E US 290 HWY SVRD EB, Austin, TX 78723. Please make checks payable to the Diocese of Austin with “Church of the Visitation” in the memo line.

The mission of Ss. Cyril & Methodius Catholic Church is to carry out the teachings of Jesus Christ and the traditions of the Catholic Church under the guidance of the Holy Spirit. We dedicate ourselves to providing spiritual nourishment through the celebration of the Word, the Eucharist, and the Sacraments; building faith, building lives through religious formation of children and adults at Ss Cyril and Methodius Catholic Parish Religious Education Programs; welcoming all, supporting one another in prayer, and striving together to build the Kingdom of God; and assisting those in need: both our local and universal Church.

 

The Williamson County Museum is a rich source of history for this area including our parish. The following link has an interesting article and pictures of our past. We are very appreciative that the museum has made this resource available to us.
