This is a fairly conservative leaning church. Music is contemporary. The people are very nice,…read morefriendly people. There are two services held, one in English and another in Spanish. Pastor Wyles conducts services in English, and Pastor Flores (bi-lingual) conducts services in Spanish. [Sometimes services are combined bi-lingual services.] Sunday school is at 9:00 am; the main service starts at 10:15 am. A nursery is provided. Small children are usually dismissed part-way through the service for children's church. There is an active youth group for teens. This church also has a food pantry ministry. This is not a very large church, but it is a vibrant one. In very little time it is possible to feel very connected here. Of course part of getting connected is up to you, but the pastors and the members do a good job of reaching out and being welcoming and friendly.

Luis and I moved to Austin from Houston on July 14, 2017. We have been married by our Catholic…read moreFaith since January 24,1981. As soon as we were settled down, we look for a Catholic Church where we would feel welcomed and peaceful. We searched, and finally, our daughter took me to St Catherine of Siena and we are so grateful to God and to her. We love it. In Houston, we were parishioners at Saint Mathew The Evangelist Catholic Church located in Hollister Road, for many, many years and, needles to say, we were very happy there. St Catherine of Siena is so beautiful, but the thing that we like the most, is Rev. Patrick Coakley's sermons. They are straight to the point and he tells it like it is. On our adult life, we have never, ever, as a couple, enjoyed and touched by other homilies, as we are now. He talks about current events and how we are behaving as human beings. He teaches us the gospel values and emphasizes that is never to late to straighten our lives. Little by little, we are becoming more involved in St Catherine of Siena's community outreach and mission. Deacon Jesse Casares was so helpful when he provided me with the application to become parishioners. I will never forget his welcoming smile and his joy. Gracias!! The choir is splendid and we enjoy the music, the lyrics and their voices. I thank God for leading us to our new catholic church in this beautiful Austin.

This was the Church we attended when we first moved to Southwest Austin many years ago. It was…read moresuch a special place. The community was a nice mix of loving and caring parishioners. One of the things we missed the most when we moved. In all the churches we have been since, none can compare to St. Catherine's. Something just so magical about it. The wife and I recently attended a mass since we were in the area. It is still the same. The christmas decorations were just right. We were excited to now see a school on site and the expansion of the hall. The saddest part of the visit was not seeing Father Oliver. He is now in heaven. So many fond memories of him as well.

This is by far the best Christian church I have ever been to. It accepts people as they are, it…read moredoes not spread gossip, it loves the community and the world. It allows Gary Job Corps Students to participate in services and functions as well as Texas State students. It offers free coffee, cookies, prayer and hugs every Sunday morning and throughout the week. Pastor Robin Steel is really connected to God, and he allows God to speak through him to connect to others. They meet for service on Sunday's at 9 AM and 11AM and Saturday's at 6PM. Currently they are creating a servolution. A revolution of serving others.

Kept a lighter atmosphere. The deacons remind me of my grandfather. Candle lighting outside was definitely different and FUN! Great for families, friends, and Austinites. I'll be attending regularly.

I've been going to St. Ignatius for ages, and though priests come and go (they're usually assigned,…read morelike service members), the current ones are particularly awesome. It makes such a huge difference to have a priest you can really relate to. Father Bill, one of the younger priests in town, is fantastic, and I love Father Mike too. They trade off for daily mass (7:30 a.m. and 12:05, usually in the side chapel). I used to cringe at the idea of going to church every day, but it sets such a positive, uplifting tone that really gets you off on the right foot. My overall stress levels decrease substantially when I make that half hour effort. I'm not a "joiner" at all, but there is a very active church community here with all sorts of activities and groups. It's great for families, and lately, I've noticed a ton of people in their 20s and 30s at mass. The 5 p.m. mass on Sunday is always packed - probably because of Father Bill, honestly. I've attended several churches in Austin over the years, and though this isn't very convenient to where we live, it's my favorite.
