We are part of the family of the Roman Catholic Diocese of Laredo 20th ANNIVERSARY OF THE DIOCESE OF LAREDO The Roman Catholic Diocese of Laredo (Latin: Dioecesis Laredanus) is located in Laredo, Texas. It was founded on July 3, 2000 by His Holiness Pope Saint John Paul II. The San Agustín Cathedral is the Mother Church of the Diocese of Laredo. Most Reverend James Anthony Tamayo is the current bishop of the diocese and was previously the Auxiliary Bishop from the Roman Catho- lic Archdiocese of Galveston-Houston. The Diocese of Lare- do covers an area of 10,905 sq. mi. and has 344,711 members (as of 7/2017). As of August of 2018, it has one bishop, 48 diocesan priests, 14 religious priests, 33 permanent deacons, 32 parishes, and 17 missions. The Laredo diocese combined portions of the Roman Cath- olic Diocese of Corpus Christi and the Roman Catholic Archdiocese of San Antonio, namely the counties of Dimmit, Jim Hogg, La Salle, Maverick, Webb, Zapata, and Zavala. On August 9, 2000, the Apostolic Let- ters erecting the diocese and installing Bishop Tamayo were formally read by the Apostolic Nuncio in the presence of 25 bishops, over 200 priests, 50 dea- cons and 3000 other faithful who gath- ered for the occasion at the Laredo Civ- ic Center.

TEMPORARY OFFICE HOURS MONDAY, WEDNESDAY & FRIDAY 9:00 AM – 1:00 PM SAINT TERESA BENEDICTA OF THE CROSS (EDITH STEIN) (1891-1942) August 9 “Come,” Edith gently whispered, taking her sister Rosa’s hand, “let us go for our people!” These were Edith Stein’s last words as the Nazis, enraged at the Dutch bishops’ condemnation of their genocide, took into custody all Catholic converts from Judaism. Born Jewish, but non-practicing from her teens, Edith’s search for truth led to a doctorate in philosophy, a brilliant career as professor and author and, finally, to the Autobiography of Saint Teresa of Ávila, which she read in one sitting, then declared, “That is the Truth!” Baptized on January 1, 1922, observed then as the feast of Jesus’ initiation into the covenant of Abraham, confirmed on February 2, the feast of Jesus’ Presentation in the Temple, Edith entered the cloistered Carmelites in Cologne, transferring to a convent in Holland when she realized that, because of the Nazi persecution of the Jews, her presence could imperil the safety of the other nuns. She died in the gas chambers of Auschwitz as a daughter of Israel and of the Church. —Peter Scagnelli, Copyright © J. S. Paluch Co.
