In this feature, we will be taking a look at San Jos\u00e9 Catholic Church in Austin<\/a>.<\/span><\/p>\n

Father Alberto Borruel, pastor of San Jos\u00e9<\/p><\/div>\n

Driving down Oltorf Street in Austin, one might not automatically suspect a church would be tucked away and hidden behind the trees of a modest side street – but there it sits, nestled behind a row of homes. The history of San Jos\u00e9 Catholic Church goes back 75 years to a small church which still stands on West Mary Street. It was founded by Father Mendez of the Order of Holy Cross.<\/p>\n

The current parish, which was built in 1985, was the largest parish in the entire diocese until 2008, and still remains the largest parish in the city of Austin. Under Father Kirby’s pastorship, San Jos\u00e9 became a diocesan church. Today, it is the home to the annual pro-life Mass each January, when many flock to the campus each year before taking to the streets in defense of the lives of unborn children.<\/p>\n

I have a particular affection for San Jos\u00e9, not just because Father Alberto Borruel {former associate pastor at my current home parish of St. William in Round Rock} is the current pastor, but also because it’s where I was married many moons ago.<\/p>\n
