Welcome!
A Greeting From Fr. Gary Janak!
Greetings in Christ to all of you from the faith community of Our Lady of Victory Cathedral. Whether you are new to our parish or have been a long-time member, you are most welcome to our webpage. Our Lady of Victory Parish has strong roots in the City of Victoria. The church serves as the cathedral of the Diocese of Victoria and it is the spiritual home for more than 2550 families. We are also blessed to have a parochial school, with almost 500 students in attendance.
The Eucharist--the real presence of Jesus Christ--is at the heart of our Catholic identity and the center of all we do here at Our Lady of Victory Parish. We offer five weekend Masses, as well as two daily Masses. On the First Friday of each month, after the 6:00 a.m. Mass, Eucharistic Adoration is held. It ends with benediction, prior to the celebration of the 5:30 p.m. Mass.
Our priests, dedicated lay ministers, school personnel and office staff are here to assist you, in making Our Lady of Victory Cathedral your spiritual home. Contact us via telephone, e-mail or visit our Facebook page. We are here to serve you, in the Name of Christ. May our Savior bless you and may our Blessed Mother intercede for you. Our Lady of Victory, pray for us.
Father Gary Janak
