Solemnity of All Saints

Dear Parishioners,

Today, the Church celebrates the Solemnity of All Saints. The Church remembers all those women and men, our relatives and friends, who have gone to their eternal reward. The Church is a living entity transcending time and space and so we are joined with the saints and they with us as we strive to live lives that witness to our faith. Placing our hope in God and striving to lead virtuous lives, we look toward salvation and eternal life, and are reminded that we are called to be saints.

The Blessing of the Cemetery will take place immediately following the 11:00 A.M. Mass. Because of COVID-19, the annual chicken and andouille gumbo will not be served this year. Also, the Ladies Auxiliary “sweet sale” has also been canceled.

On Monday evening, November 2nd we welcome Archbishop Alfred C. Hughes, the archbishop emeritus, who will celebrate the Sacrament of Confirmation at 7:00 P.M. Twelve young women and men and two adults will be confirmed. All parishioners are invited to attend.

The Msgr. Eyraud Knights of Columbus Council #2436 will be raffling a framed cross stitch of Christ. The donations from this raffle will be used to provide food vouchers for Thanksgiving and Christmas baskets. Members of the KC will be outside church selling chances.

Have a Blessed Week!
