The Scrutinies

Forming the Family in the Faith

The Scrutinies are celebrated on three designated Sundays of Lent, during the 9:30 am and 1:30 pm Masses here at St. William. While these rites are for the Elect, those to be baptized at the Easter Vigil, they can also bear fruit for our own prayer and Lenten journeys...

Prayer for a New Bishop

Almighty and ever living God, grant our Holy Father, Pope Francis, wisdom in discernment as he chooses a new bishop for this local Church.

By your divine providence, grant us a shepherd, after the heart of Jesus, the Good Shepherd, whose benevolent care and kindly zeal will strengthen the people of God by the light of the Gospel and the power of the sacraments.

Lord, as you now prepare to call our new bishop to the Diocese of Austin, give him courage and generosity to respond with a spirit of joyful hope. Invoking the intercession of our patroness,

Our Lady of the Immaculate Conception, we ask this through Christ our Lord. Amen.
