St. Albert of Trapani

Join us in celebrating Fr. Vincent’s 15th anniversary in the priesthood on June 4, 2022.  There will be a special Mass in his honor on that Saturday, followed by a reception at the Parish Center.  Please sign up for a dish you would like to share for this occasion.  There will be members of the Pastoral Council after each Mass in May to help at the signup.  See you all there.
 

BEWARE OF PHISHING SCAMS!

Do not respond to texts or emails that appear to be from Fr. Vincent Tran asking for help in the way of a monetary contribution. These requests are fraudulent. St. Albert of Trapani Church does not solicit donations by email or text. As a general rule, never wire or donate money requested in this way unless you are certain who the recipient is. If you have any doubts about the authenticity of an email, correspondence, text, or call from St. Albert Church or Fr. Vincent Tran, don’t hesitate to contact the office for verification before responding.
 

UPDATED PANDEMIC PROTOCOLS

The local pandemic situation is greatly improved.  Therefore, our pandemic protocols have been amended.  Beginning May 22, 2021, social distancing no longer needs to be maintained during liturgical celebrations.  Parish churches and chapels may be filled to 100% of the building's occupancy.  Masks will not be required, but they are encouraged.

Also, the temporary suspension of receiving Holy Communion on the tongue is removed.  Holy Communion may be received on the tongue, or in the hand, at the communicant's discretion.  The temporary suspension of receiving Holy Communion under the appearance of wine from a common chalice remains in effect until further notice.

For the time being, the general dispensation from the Sunday obligation remains in effect for all Catholics within the Archdiocese of Galveston-Houston.

Do you attend Mass at St. Albert of Trapani?
Would you consider yourself part of the St. Albert family?

If so, one important question to ask is “am I registered” with the parish?

If you are unsure, contact the office to confirm. If you know you haven’t completed registration, that’s an easy fix. Click here to register online, or kindly visit the parish office.

Why is it important?

Typically, registration becomes a topic when you are in need of a sacrament. It’s always a nice thing to ensure you are registered sooner than later. During important spiritual events like weddings and baptisms, you have many things to plan. Ensure registration is taken care of ahead of time.
