As our nation continues the transition from one president to another, Bishop Joe Vásquez, through his leadership of the Diocese of Austin, takes seriously the role of the Church to inform the culture. We do this through the faithful celebration of the sacraments and apostolic action in the world. Included in that is working with whomever is in office at the local, state, and federal level for God’s good purposes.
We seek always to accompany our leaders through respectful dialogue, striving to bring together what we hold to be true as Catholics and the important work of governing a society. It is in this light that we offer prayers for President Biden and his administration, re-committing ourselves to evangelize our nation with all that God reveals in Scripture and tradition.
