Church-Our Lord's House  
Whether you're a winter parishioner or year-round member we need your help all year long.  We realize in these economic times that things aren't always easy. Our Lord's life wasn't easy either and we all   know how He suffered for us.

His house is as important to us as the White House is important to our nation.  It is  as important to us as the Queen's palace is to the citizens of England.  Keeping up our parish for Him has eternal rewards that extend far beyond the brick and mortar, the glass and pews and the air conditioning.  

Our only means of support for His house comes from all of us, you and me, no one  else- we are charged with that  responsibility. One could say the buck stops here or rather in the collection plate. Please won't you continue your generosity throughout the year.

THE SPILL OF DISSENT
This week in the United States, we have watched the appalling effects of an oil leak in the Gulf of Mexico. Over the last month, the waters of the Gulf have been stained-- and now crude has made landfall, fouling the shores of my home state of Louisiana and neighboring states. Over 100 miles of coastline have been effected. Wildlife and fisheries in the region have been decimated.   read more

BACK TO THE FUTURE
Pope Benedict’s Liturgical Time Bomb
By Raymond Arroyo

While drafting the decree that would return the old Latin Mass to Catholic altars around the world, the Pope rightly predicted that reaction to his directive would range from “joyful acceptance to harsh opposition.” But what he did not, perhaps, anticipate was the reaction (or convenient spin) of the pundit class and not a few clerics who have minimized the decree or tried to dismiss it as a curiosity-- a non-event that is likely to have little effect beyond a few “ultraconservative” throwbacks  read more

Research shows that having frequent family dinners can reduce the susceptibility of teens to risks like teen pregnancy, smoking, drug use and depression.
