Saint Jude Thaddeus  Catholic Church

WELCOME

to St. Jude Thaddeus Catholic Church in Burkburnett, Texas. We are a parish of the Catholic Diocese of Fort Worth, under the leadership of the Most Reverend Michael J. Olson, S.T.D., M.A. Please come to worship and celebrate Mass with us. It is our joy to have you join us!

Please also visit our sister parishes in Iowa Park (Christ the King) and Electra (St. Paul) if you are in their respective areas.
 

Father Khoi V. Tran is currently assigned by Bishop Olson as the Parochial Administrator of the three parishes. For details about events at our three parishes, please click on the "Calendars" menu and select your particular parish. Information will be updated regularly for your convenience. For up-to-date news and updates, please follow us on FaceBook and Twitter.

Our Mission Statement

We, the Eucharistic Community of St. Jude Thaddeus, come together to glorify God and build His Kingdom in a loving, family-oriented atmosphere by dedicating ourselves to nurture each other's faith and cultures through worship, education, service, fellowship, and community outreach.

Due to the rising number of influenza cases in the Texoma area, safety protocols will be in effect until Easter for the general well being of our Parishioners. Liturgical adaptations and restrictions are in place at all three parishes, Christ the King, St Jude Thaddeus, and St Paul, as precautionary steps to prevent the spread of the influenza virus at liturgical services, especially at Mass:

1) There will not be communion of the Precious Blood of Christ. Please know that when you receive the Eucharist under one species, you are receiving the Lord fully, His Body and Blood, Soul and Divinity.

2) No holding of hands during the "Our Father." As a matter of fact, according to the General Instructions of the Roman Missal, the proper gesture for the congregation at this time is to fold your hands in prayerful form. The Priest is the only one who extends His hands to gather and lift up the prayers of the faithful in persona Christi (in the person of Christ).

3) If you are not feeling well, please find an appropriate (reserved) way, such as a simple nod of your head, at the sign of peace. Please refrain from shaking hands.

Thank you for your cooperation. Please be healthy and keep those who are sick and ill in our prayers.

Through the power of Christ’s love we are called to respond to the needs of others. As Catholics, we embrace the gifts we have and joys of life we experience through the eyes of faith. In gratitude, we generously share these gifts.
