- Very Reverend James A. Misko, Diocesan Administrator
I ask the people of the Diocese of Austin to join in prayer with the Universal Church and all people of goodwill to express our gratitude to God for the life of Pope Francis.
Archbishop Joe S. Vásquez was installed as Archbishop of Galveston-Houston on March 25. As required by Canon Law, the Diocese of Austin College of Consultors is required to appoint a Diocesan Administrator. Father James Misko has been appointed to this role.
