Holy Hour will still take place, just shifted 30 min earlier. (Fr K will be on the south shore to attend a priests' Day of Reflection.) Please share this with anyone you talk to.
March 19 falls on Sunday this year, so the St Joseph Altar committee is putting on the altar this Saturday. Come to the Mass, and stay for the inspiring display of devotion to the man chosen by God to be the earthly father of Jesus and the husband of Mary.
Confessions will be available at every parish in the archdiocese on the remaining Wednesdays of March. Holy Family's hours will be 4-4:45 and 5:45-6:30 pm. Other churches' hours may vary; best to check their websites or call. Fr Kyle is offering an additional opportunity on Fri 3/24, 5-5:45 pm. Confession is always available at Holy Family on Saturdays, 3:30-4:30 pm, or you may call the office to schedule an appointment. 985-839-4040.
The Friends of St Francis host this fundraiser to support their ministry to the needy, as well as the Help Center Food Bank. You get a generous dinner, and you don't have to leave a tip (unless you want to). $12 for *real* catfish / $15 for shrimp or combo. All dinners include potato planks, coleslaw, corn and dessert. If you'll be attending the Stations of the Cross, stop in the hall first to order your dinners, that way they'll be ready for pickup afterwards. Thank you for your support!
