    • News & Events at Mary Queen Church

      Feastday of Our Lady of Lourdes
       

      The weekend of February 11th & 12th, we will celebrate the Feastday of Our Lady of Lourdes.  In the city of Lourdes, France a peasant girl was told by the Bishop to ask the Lady her name.  The Lady told Bernadette, “I am the Immaculate Conception”.  Every conception, every baby is a blessing from God.  Therefore, to honor Our Lady, the Food Pantry is organizing a diaper and baby wipe drive for our Gabriel Project.  This is a Catholic ministry that supports pregnant mothers who are in need of material, spiritual, and/or physical support.  The goal is for mother's to have reassurance that they are not alone in their journey.  Please bring diapers and wipes to Church and place them in the baby cradle in the foyer.

      2nd Annual Chili Cook-Off

      Mass for the Anointing of the Sick

      Saturday, February 11th is the feast day of Our Lady of Lourdes and designated by the Vatican as “World Day of the Sick.”  All are invited to attend a Mass at 8:30 AM in the Church.  The Sacrament of the Sick is reserved for those whose health is seriously impaired by sickness or old age.  Appropriate reception of the Sacrament of the Sick includes:
       
      *  Those whose health is seriously impaired by sickness or old age.
      *  Before surgery, if the surgery is caused by serious illness.
      *  Elderly people who have become notably weakened, even though no serious illness is present.

    • The Master's Plan - Witness & Welcome in Gospel love

      Church Blessing & Dedication Mass
       

      We are happy to announce the Mary Queen Church Blessing and Dedication Mass will be Saturday, April 21, 2012 in the morning (time to be determined).  We will welcome His Eminence, Daniel Cardinal DiNardo, Archbishop of Galveston-Houston for this special dedication liturgy.
       
      Gratitude to all our Mary Queen parishioners and friends who have made their pledge to our current capital campaign, “The Master’s Plan: Witness and Welcome in Gospel love.”  We encourage all our Catholic households to join us in this historic endeavor, as we see the construction of the new church facility rapidly progressing.  For most of us, this will be the church of our faith-lives, our celebration of the Eucharist, our house of prayer and praise, our sacramental life, our Catholic center of ministry and witness, and the symbol of our inherent union with the Archdiocese of Galveston-Houston.  “Memorial” items are still available for your designation and donations.  Please contact Lisa Johnson, Capital Campaign Administrator, for current listings and information 281-482-1391 ext. 313 or ljohnson@maryqueenchurch.org.
