On August 15, 2009, Holy Family Parish became the new parish for all Catholics on Galveston Island and the Bolivar Peninsula. Its founding by Daniel Cardinal DiNardo was a result of the devastation created from Hurricane Ike in September, 2008. Holy Family now serves Catholics who were previously served by St. Mary's Cathedral Basilica Parish, Sacred Heart Parish, St. Patrick Parish, Holy Rosary Parish, Mary, Star of the Sea Parish, Our Mother of Mercy Parish, Reina de la Paz Parish, St. Peter the Apostle Parish, and St. Theresa of Lisieux Parish.
We currently have 6 churches within Holy Family Parish:
St. Mary's Cathedral Basilica
Sacred Heart Church
St. Patrick Church
Holy Rosary Church
Mary Star of the Sea (Jamaica Beach)
Our Lady by the Sea (Crystal Beach)
