Who We Are

The Ordinariate of the Chair of Saint Peter is equivalent to a diocese, created by the Vatican in 2012 for people nurtured in the Anglican tradition who wish to become Catholic.

We are a community of Catholics from various Anglican, Episcopalian, & other Protestant backgrounds (as well as cradle Catholics) in Austin, Texas. We are an Ordinariate parish established in order to preserve our patrimony, evangelize our city, and warmly invite Protestants of all stripes to “come home!”

Late November…

Sunday, November 22 (Christ the King)

  • 10:30 a.m. | Solemn Mass with Eucharistic Procession and Benediction

Advent

Sunday, November 29 (First Sunday of Advent)

  • 10:30 a.m. | Solemn Mass with the Great Litany chanted in procession

The Great Litany is one of the signature prayers of our Anglican Patrimony. It was typically prayed on Sundays, Wednesdays, and Fridays, and during penitential times. There is a long-standing custom in many parishes in the Anglican Patrimony to begin each penitential season by having the entire community pray the Litany in procession together at the beginning of Mass. We will do this at the 10:30 Solemn Mass on the First Sunday of Advent (November 29).
