HELP NEEDED:
Hello everyone,
COVID update: With Phase III in effect, I wanted to update everyone on how does it affect the Parish. From a liturgical perspective, the current seating capacity (due to social distancing) stays the same, so that the mass schedule will remain the same.
Need your help: Our LifeTeen and Edge programs are starting up; we could use some core members to help with this program. If you like to discuss what it entails, please contact me at the office to discuss it.

CCD: We could use some additional help for our CCD program; please contact the office.

Lectors: we can always use Lectors to proclaim the Word of God; please contact Angie in the office for more information.

Altar servers: Need altar servers for weekend Masses if you of the age and would like to serve, please contact the office.

Building Repair: We continue to complete small projects, the plaster repair work is completed, and the painting of those areas is being completed. We are making plans to begin the next area of repair.

HURRICANE LAURA  RELIEF
9-30-2020

This past week our outreach group was in Creole serving 660 meals! This was the 4th trip for our Parish. There are so many beautiful stories of the People of God helping one another out in the aftermath of Hurricane Laura. Thank you for your continued generosity! — in Creole, Louisiana.
9-8-2020
We’re back in Calcasieu Parish today, praying with and serving those in our sister Diocese of Lake Charles as they pick up the pieces of their lives in the aftermath of Hurricane Laura. Last Wednesday and Friday, our crew mobilized to bring fuel and ice to fill generators and freezers – today, we’re filling stomachs! In July we hosted a raffle for a half calf, our volunteers are using some of the remaining beef to make a hot and fresh spaghetti as the main outreach for our third trip to St. Martin de Porres Catholic Church Lake Charles, Louisiana. As we look around the city and see the unbelievable devastation afflicting our brothers and sisters in Christ, we humbly ask you to help us continue our outreach. Your donations and prayers will see them through. #ComeHolySpirit




As Catholics, we are called to be people of action. Over the last few days, the Holy Spirit has been stirring within our community. As a parish, we are being prompted by the Holy Spirit to help those in need because of Laura.

St. Francis of Assis said, “Start by doing what is necessary, then what is possible, and suddenly you are doing the impossible.”  We are called to do what is needed. Tomorrow morning there is a group headed from the parish to St. Martin de Porres Catholic Church in South Lake Charles to bring fuel and ice. This delivery will be the first of many acts of charity we as a parish can offer to those in need. Shortly we will be sending a cooking crew to St. Martin de Porres to provide meals to the area.

Many of you may want to help in different ways. Please contact the office, so we have a list of people who are called to action. Remember, we are called to serve God and his people.
 Come Holy Spirit, guide us in these Acts of Charity.

Love ya!
Fr. Mark

* Important information from the Diocese of Lafayette

 During these difficult times, we know that individuals within our communities may be experiencing economic hardship and may be in need of assistance .  Attached you will find information from Acadiana Voluntary Organizations Active in Disaster (AVOAD).   The mission of AVOAD is to foster efficient, streamlined service delivery to people affected by disaster.  

     Sadly, The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention ( CDC ) data has revealed that African Americans are disproportionately affected by the COVID-19 outbreak.  Here in Louisiana, 70% of the people who have died are African American, while we only make up 14% of the State’s population.   
In an effort to educate the African American community, information and resources have been prepared.
