Sts. Peter & Paul Catholic Church

From 1869 to today, the parish has been blessed with Diocesan Clergy who have brought the parish to a modern, multi-cultural Christ-centered entity with ministries that serve the area with full Vatican II spirit. Little did those immigrants in 1844, who stepped off the ships with names as Arnold, Fey, Klein, Lux, Mergele, Reininger, Riedel, Schertz, Schneider, Schwab, Syring and Wenzel, realize what they would help start in Texas. The cornerstone of our current stone church was laid in 1871 and has gone through two expansions, 1963 and 2000. From the small beginning, our church has grown to over 2750 registered families today.
