Welcome to the Department for Pastoral Ministries! We are here to serve the Catholics of the Archdiocese of San Antonio by supporting their pastors, parish staff, and ministry teams entrusted to care for them. We accomplish this by providing resourceseducational opportunities, and faith formation events to assist people of all ages and from various walks of life to promote the Gospel values at their parish, their community, and the world.

Our department integrates pastoral services to foster quality Catholic programs and promotes the understanding that faith formation is a lifelong, ongoing process. Our departmentā€™s mission is that of the entire Archdiocese: ā€œSeeking to live in sacramental communion with one another, the Archdiocese of San Antonio exists to make disciples and missionaries of Jesus Christ to prepare for the promise of Eternal Life.ā€

DONATE TO YOUR PARISH

Giving is a form of worship when it is done in God’s name. Sunday offerings are by far the largest portion of financial support our parishes receive, and are critical to their ongoing vitality and sustainability of the Mission of Jesus Christ.
