Wednesday
4 pm Eucharist with Anointing of the Sick
Confirmation, Reception, and Profession of Faith
On Sunday, April 13th, Bishop Shannon will be with us for her annual visit. This is the time when we welcome, encourage, and pray with all who desire to deepen their faith commitment and receive the prayers of the church. Those who have not received the sacrament of Baptism or Confirmation are encouraged to partake. If you are worshiping with us from another faith tradition you may feel ready to be received formally in the church. This is a renewal of faith and not a denial of our former tradition. We also offer the opportunity for others to renew their faith commitment. This is sometimes chosen by the individual after a person faith experience and the individual is asking for prayers from the assembly. Please speak with Fr Jim if you wish to explore participation in the sacraments and prayers of the church. Come let us celebrate together! Fr. Jim—cell 504-491-8686 or jamesmorrison44@gmail.com.

Children’s Sunday School
Children in Pre-K – 4th grades are invited to participate in Godly Play. The children will be called at the beginning of the Mass to exit with their teachers.
