St. Mary's Catholic Church
downtown

Welcome to the website of the Saint Mary’s Catholic Church of San Antonio. The site will provide you with information you may need to get to know our parish, its staff, services and different ministries practiced here.

We are a family-like community with rich diversity in culture, but one in the faith, liturgy and social activities. We seek to be more vibrant and effective in proclaiming the Word of God. We joyfully celebrate communal prayers and worship, especially the Holy Eucharist with utmost reverence and devotion.

Our parish is historic, the second oldest in San Antonio after San Fernando Cathedral, and the Missionary Oblates of Mary Immaculate who serve here have been shepherding God’s people in this location for over 130 years. The church, a jewel of great beauty in the central downtown setting, was built almost 90 years ago, but much of what is happening here is vibrant, fresh, and new.
