Clerical Endowment (CEF) Mass cards are sold in parishes throughout the diocese, including St. Mary's. The spiritual benefits of each Mass card enrollment include Masses offered monthly by the bishop and the CEF director, and the recipient of the Mass card is remembered in the prayers of the seminarians and the Carmelite sisters at the Our Lady of Grace Monastery in Christoval.

The CEF Mass cards make good gifts for birthdays, weddings, anniversaries, baptisms, First Holy Communions, confirmations, graduations, or for an ill family member or friend. They can also be given as a thank you gift or on Mother’s Day, Father’s Day and other special occasions.

CEF Mass cards can be purchased at the church office.

Use of the Funds Collected

Your donations help educate seminarians in the Austin Diocese and they provide loans to diocesan parishes for building programs.

In the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Spirit. Amen.

Lord of Life,

You have given us the gift of water,

source of fruitfulness, freshness, and hope.

It quenches thirst, nourishes the earth, and heals wounds.

We thank you,

because it is also a symbol of your grace and love
that renews us through baptism.

Today we ask you to teach us to safeguard it

with gratitude, justice, and responsibility.

Forgive us for turning it into a commodity,
forgetting that it is a universal gift,

a right without borders, meant for all your children.

We see with pain so many brothers and sisters

who lack clean water,

who walk for miles to find it,

who become ill due to its scarcity.

May your Spirit make us pilgrims of the essential,

able to live with simplicity,

denouncing waste and pollution,

defending the right of every brother and sister

to drink without fear and without inequality.

May our care for water

be a sign of love for the Creator

and a commitment to the lives of the poor,

educating new generations to value

and protect the Earth’s resources.

Amen.”
