St Brigid’s Catholic Church

What St Brigid’s Catholic Church does

St. Brigid Catholic Church is a non-profit Catholic parish located at 6907 Kitchener St. in San Antonio, Texas, serving approximately 2,746 registered households. Founded in 1972 as the 155th parish of the Archdiocese of San Antonio, it operates under the canonical governance of the Archbishop and was designated the Archdiocese's first Collaborative Ministries parish in October 1985. The parish is led by Rev. Gilberto Vallejo (pastor since July 1, 2020) and supported by a staff of approximately 23, including directors of Liturgy, Music, Youth Ministry, Adult Faith Formation, and the Kids Day Out program, plus a Deacon for OCIA.

The parish delivers Catholic worship services in English and Spanish (Saturday Vigil 5 PM, Sunday Spanish 8 AM, Sunday English 10:30 AM and 12:30 PM), all seven sacraments, and a comprehensive faith formation program spanning PreK through adulthood, including OCIA, retreats (ACTS model), youth and young adult ministries, and a fee-based Kids Day Out early childhood program. Operational infrastructure consists of a Community Worship Center (1976), a dedicated sanctuary (2002), multiple chapels, and the McKenna Building for offices; digital channels include OSV Hub for online giving, Facebook Live streaming of Saturday Vigil Mass, and a YouTube archive. Revenue is generated primarily through tithes and offerings (5% of every collection is redirected to the Outreach Program), supplemented by Kids Day Out fees ($100 registration plus $30 per scheduled day/month), Mass Intentions, candle/lamp dedications, and annual event fundraising (Parish Gala, Pancake Breakfast, Vacation Bible School).

Beyond core ministries, St. Brigid runs more than 15 distinct social, liturgical, and service organizations — including Knights of Columbus, Catholic Ladies Society, Guadalupana, St. Vincent de Paul Society, Young at Heart, CYO sports, and a Laudato Si' environmental ministry — and partners with external entities such as Catholic Charities, Habitat for Humanity, NAMI San Antonio, and Crossroads Career to extend its social service footprint without proportionate headcount expansion. The parish is governed as a non-profit under Texas law, holds no subsidiaries, has no private equity or venture capital ownership, and participates in the Archdiocese's annual Archbishop's Appeal (2026 parish goal: $97,044).
