Bringing together Eucharistic Adoration, music, and silent worship, we will focus on the central, foundational aspect of our life of faith: belief and communion with Jesus, truly present to us in the Eucharist. The first such event takes place at Holy Trinity in Covington, next Tues 10/5, 7 pm. It will be a beautiful, prayerful experience; well worth the trip.

A call to action from the Catholic bishops of Louisiana: We all agree that everyone deserves to be treated with respect and dignity. The Equality Act, which is coming up soon for a Senate vote, in many ways does the opposite of this and we are asked to please oppose it. Instead of respecting differences in beliefs about marriage and sexuality, the Equality Act would discriminate against people of faith. Among other things, the Equality Act: (1) Punishes faith-based organizations, such as charities and schools who serve everyone in their communities, simply because of their beliefs about marriage and sexuality; (2) Forces girls and women to compete against boys and men for limited opportunities in sports, and to share locker rooms and shower spaces with biological males who identify as women; (3) Risks mandating taxpayers to fund abortions; (4) Forces people in everyday life, especially health care workers, to support gender transition; and (5) Expands what the government considers a "public" place, forcing even some congregation halls to host functions that conflict with their beliefs.

St. Joseph is a powerful intercessor.

By His obedience, Jesus calls us to obedience by letting go control of what we think God should do.
