“We are not the sum of our weaknesses and failures;
We are the sum of the Father’s love for us.”
St. John Paul II
Our Story
The St. Raphael Center is an answer to God’s call to bring healing services to those within the Diocese of Austin. We are building toward being a counseling, prayer ministry, and retreat center founded on Catholic values and traditions. The goal is to provide services that are accessible and affordable. Starting with a healing prayer ministry, the plan is to then open counseling offices in South/Central Austin and the Round Rock areas. We will then expand where called within the Diocese of Austin. In addition, spiritual directors will be available to guide spiritual needs that often come with emotional ones. A retreat center is planned that provides a place to gather, learn, and heal.
As we are in the beginning stages of growth, we are not offering services at this time.
