What Christ the Redeemer Catholic Church does

Christ the Redeemer Catholic Church is a Catholic parish operating under the governance of the Archdiocese of Galveston-Houston, located at 11507 Huffmeister Road in Houston, Texas. Founded in 1980, the parish serves more than 7,500 registered families in the greater Cypress area of Houston, providing the full spectrum of Catholic sacramental and faith formation services including Mass, Confession, Baptism, Confirmation, Marriage, Anointing of the Sick, Perpetual Eucharistic Adoration, and Order of Christian Initiation of Adults (OCIA). The organization runs 11-50 staff across clergy, administration, music, religious education, youth ministry, and maintenance, including a Pastor (Rev. Mark Hebert), a Parochial Vicar, and multiple deacons serving in operational and spiritual direction roles.

The parish operates as a multi-program religious platform, anchored by a campus that includes the main church, chapel, 24/7 Adoration Chapel, parish office, CtR Catholic School (K-8), Genesis Early Childhood Program, Community Center, Parish Hall, and Redeemer Activity Center. Beyond sacramental ministry, the parish delivers youth and adult faith formation, marriage preparation, grief and bereavement support (Griefshare-based Serenity program), on-site counseling through the Rejoice Counseling Apostolate partnership, pro-life pregnancy support via the Gabriel Project, outreach to the local community through Cypress Assistance Ministries, and a diversified ministry ecosystem spanning music, liturgical service, scouting, men's and women's fellowship, and senior programming. Technology integrations include ParishSOFT for online giving, Flocknote for parish messaging, KidCheck for nursery check-in, and multi-platform livestreaming via Facebook, YouTube, and Instagram.

Revenue is generated through tithes and offerings (weekly envelopes and ParishSOFT online giving), donations and special collections (Diocesan Services Fund, Easter/Christmas flowers, paver program), facility rentals to registered parishioners, and program fees including marriage preparation ($250 deposit, $500/$250 facility use, $185 cantor, $215 organist) and the $20 Griefshare workbook. The organization is a private nonprofit religious institution with no equity ownership structure, operating under canonical authority rather than corporate governance, with no disclosed financial statements or funding rounds.
