Martin Luther King Commemoration

The Mass is Sat., Jan. 15, 2022 at 11 a.m. at Holy Cross Parish, 1610 E 11th St., Austin. All are invited to participate.

Join Bishop Joe S. Vásquez as he commemorates the Legacy of Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. with a Concelebrated Mass for Peace and Justice. Fr. Charles (Larry) Covington of St. Theresa of Lisieux Parish is the homilist. Bishop Vásquez will present the annual Drum Major for Justice Award to Patricia Macy. She has served in parochial ministry, and has supported the diocese in social ministry and advocacy for decades. Macy truly epitomizes the ideals of what it means to dedicate one’s life to the promotion of social justice and the dignity of every human life, combined with a strong sense of obligation to the civic community, one’s parish community and family life.
