On behalf of the Notre Dame Club of Austin, we welcome this
week Rev. John I. Jenkins, C.S.C., President of the University of Notre Dame,
as well as alumni and friends. Our relationship with the Congregation of the
Holy Cross goes back many years.
In 1872, Rev. Edward Sorin, Superior General of the Holy Cross Congregation, came to Austin from Notre Dame to receive land donated for what
would be St. Edward’s College (now St. Edward’s University). Two years
later, and for 116 years, the Congregation also had charge of Saint Mary’s
until the Diocese of Austin assumed this responsibility in 1990.
The Cathedral’s architectural design can be attributed to the connection
between Holy Cross and Architect Nicholas Clayton. At present, we are in
the midst of a capital campaign to restore our beautiful cathedral. For more
information about RestoreRenewRejoice, see our campaign materials in the
east narthex of the church; visit our website, smcaustin.org, or call the
Cathedral Office at 512-476-6182.

Jesus tells the crowd that only those who
renounce all of their possessions can be His
disciples. Is He truly asking us to give up
everything? Perhaps instead He is trying to
help us see that everything we think we own is
really a gift from God. Good stewards know
that and strive to use those gifts accountably.

Dear Parishioners,
Last Sunday was our first school-sponsored breakfast. The 3rd grade students
enjoyed making signs and greeting everyone who entered Bishops’ Hall. Likewise, the parents had a great time cooking and building community among those
who attended the breakfast. We thank you for your support!
On Friday, September 9, we will welcome all of our families and students during
our Back to School Night. The Saint Mary Cathedral Knights of Columbus will
be preparing barbecue hamburgers for everyone to enjoy. The event will be
sponsored by IBC Bank and the CSSM Parent/Teacher Club.
Our opening Sesquicentennial Mass is just three weeks away. Please mark your
