Welcome!
Greetings from Father Gary Janak!
As Rector/Pastor of The Cathedral of Our Lady of Victory, I am pleased you have chosen to view our website. Whether you are new to our parish family or you have been a long-time member, you are most welcome to become familiar with our webpage. Our parish has strong roots in the city of Victoria and we have much to offer the Catholic faithful and all who are seeking a relationship with our Lord Jesus Christ.
The church serves as the Cathedral of the Diocese of Victoria in Texas and is the spiritual home for more than 2,550 families. We are also blessed to have a strong and vibrant parochial school, with approximately 470 students currently enrolled. The Eucharist—the real presence of Jesus Christ—is at the heart of our Catholic identity and the center of all we do here in the parish.
We offer five weekend Masses, including the Sunday 9:00a.m. Mass which is televised live throughout the Diocese of Victoria. In addition, there are two Masses every other day of the week. On the First Friday of each month, Eucharistic Adoration is observed, concluding with Benediction prior to the celebration of the evening Mass. Our priests, dedicated staff and faith-filled lay ministers are here to assist you in making The Cathedral of Our Lady of Victory Parish your spiritual home.
Please contact any of us via telephone, email or Facebook. We are here to serve you in the Name of Jesus Christ. May our Savior bless you and may our Blessed Mother intercede for you.
Our Lady of Victory, pray for us.
Very Reverend Gary W. Janak
