How to Contact an Inmate at TL Roach Unit, TX (TX)

Catholic Mass at the T. L. Roach Unit is scheduled by custody level. Minimum custody Mass runs Saturdays from 8:00 a.m. to 9:30 a.m. Medium custody Mass is Saturdays from 10:00 a.m. to 11:00 a.m. If you're helping your loved one attend, know their custody level first. The times are different. This information covers Catholic Mass only. It doesn't include other religions, other days, or general visitation and communication rules.

Steps to Follow

• ✓ If your loved one is minimum custody, note the Saturday Catholic Mass time: 8:00 a.m. to 9:30 a.m.
• ✓ If your loved one is medium custody, note the Saturday Catholic Mass time: 10:00 a.m. to 11:00 a.m.
• ✓ Call the Amarillo Criminal Justice Ministry at 806-383-2243 ext. 117 (Deacon Andy Gonzalez) to ask practical questions about Catholic services at the unit and what steps, if any, are needed for participation.

Confirm the schedule before making plans. Prisons can change call-out procedures, adjust times, or pause activities without much notice. When you call, ask whether Saturday Catholic Mass is still split by custody level (minimum: 8:00 a.m. to 9:30 a.m., medium: 10:00 a.m. to 11:00 a.m.). Also ask about any exceptions or additional services that aren't listed.

1. Call the ministry number: Dial 806-383-2243 ext. 117 and ask for Deacon Andy Gonzalez.
2. Ask for the right point of contact: If you cannot reach anyone, ask the unit who the current prison ministry or chaplain contact is for Catholic services.
3. Confirm what the ministry can help with: Ask whether they coordinate anything you need to do ahead of time, or if they only facilitate in-unit services.
