EPIPHANY CATHOLIC CHURCH

What EPIPHANY CATHOLIC CHURCH does

Epiphany Catholic Church is a Catholic parish under the Archdiocese of Miami, operating from 8235 SW 57th Avenue, Miami, Florida 33143. The parish traces its origins to a first Mass celebrated on April 15, 1951, with the first bulletin published in 1952 and the current permanent church dedicated on March 17, 2002. It is led by Pastor Reverend José Alvarez (fifth pastor, since June 2019), Parochial Vicar Father Ireneusz Ekiert, and four ordained deacons, supported by a Music Director (Gustavo Zayas), Associate Music Director/Organist (Alexander Straus-Fausto), Religious Education Coordinator (Susana Yllanes), and Director of Development & Public Relations (Virginia Del Pino).

The parish delivers a comprehensive portfolio of religious and educational services: a full liturgical schedule (daily and weekend Masses in English and Spanish), the Religious Education Program for grades 1-12, Sacramental Preparation (Baptism, First Reconciliation, First Communion, Confirmation, Marriage, and OCIA), Epiphany Catholic School (Pre-K3 through 8th grade), 15+ volunteer ministries, a four-choir music program plus orchestral masses and an internationally recognized Concert Series, Bible Study sessions in English and Spanish, and an Endowment Fund established in 1989. Underlying technology is limited to CRMBoost for online giving, the parish website, Formed.org for catechetical content, and YouTube streaming — there is no proprietary technology stack.

The revenue model is diversified across weekly tithes and offerings, school tuition, the annual archdiocesan ABCD campaign (2026 parish goal of $680,875), tiered Concert Series donations through a 501(c)(3) Sacred Fund ($100-$10,000 tiers), and investment income from the Endowment Fund. Outreach extends beyond the local parish boundary via broadcast partnerships with EWTN, CatholicTV Network, WSFL-39, WLTV 23-Univision, Canal Sur, Radio Paz 830 AM, NET TV, and the Archdiocese of Miami's Heart of the Nation platform.
