    • WELCOME
      Welcome to Mary Queen Catholic Church!

      Our Parish is in the Archdiocese of Galveston-Houston. 
      The priests that serve Mary Queen are
      Missionaries of Our Lady of La Salette.

      If you are visiting us, we pray that God will bless you
      abundantly during your time with us.  
       
      Our Mary Queen community, inspired by faith and love, will live, worship, teach, welcome and support one another in the imitation of Christ.

      We are Catholic!

      Food Drive - Help us get ready for Summer!

      The summer months are always the busiest time for the Food Pantry.  During the past few years we have had our parish food drive after summer to help restock the shelves.  We are moving the food drive to the month of May to help us get prepared for the summer.  Our numbers so far this year are up by 75% when compared to the same time last year (and last year was our busiest year ever). We are trying our best to be mindful of the quality and quantity of food we give to each needy family.  Our goal is to give them enough food to feed every person in their home for 5 to 7 days.  So, keeping the shelves stocked is a constant concern.  Mother Teresa said, "If you can't feed a hundred people, feed just one."  Food donations of all amounts are seen as a blessing and are greatly appreciated.

      New Church Needs More Ministers

      We welcome many new faces and old friends to our parish.  And we welcome many new volunteers to our liturgical and hospitality ministries.  Along with additional Extraordinary Ministers of Holy Communion, Lectors, Ushers and Greeters, and Altar Servers, we are seeking Hospitality Ministers to serve in the new “Welcome Center” in the church narthex.  Many parishioners and visitors are asking for times to tour the new church, so we appreciate your assistance with these opportunities of hospitality and service.  Please contact the Parish Office at 281-482-1391. 
       

      Mary Queen Appreciation Dinners

      Invitations will be mailed soon to all Mary Queen parishioners who are active in any of our many church-wide ministries.  Please join us for one of two “Appreciation Dinners” scheduled for either Friday, June 1st at 6:30 PM or Friday, June 8th at 6:30 PM in the Parish Center.   These dinners are in gratitude to you for your involvement, dedication, and ministry to our Catholic Community of Mary Queen and to our Archdiocese of Galveston-Houston.  These evenings will include a catered dinner and a dance with a DJ.  Plan ahead so you don’t miss out. 

      Divorced? Separated?  

      You don’t have to go through it alone. Mary Queen Parish has a group called DivorceCare.  This is a weekly support group and seminar series where you’ll learn how to deal with the pain of the past and look forward to rebuilding your life. There are 13 sessions which are held every Thursday from 6:30-8:30 PM in room 114/115.  You can start anytime during the program.  The cost is just $15 per person (includes workbook).  Contact Joanie McBride for more information at 832-878-7905.

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