Dear Friends:
This past weekend the Gospel spoke about being a
neighbor to others is being understanding and compassionate. This reminds me of a few incidents concerning being a good neighbor to those who live near
our church and school. An anonymous lady called me
a while back all upset that someone had blocked her
driveway while parking for a funeral. I guess it remains impressed in my mind because of the few
“choice” words she used. She said it is bad enough
that they have to deal with the school and Sunday
mass traffic and parking but also during the week it is
too much to deal with their inconsideration. I can
sympathize with her since I’m sure there are those
who ignore the hardship they cause for their convenience.
One time a parishioner was hit by a car on Paris Rd.
as she was walking across because the driver could not
see her well, due to illegally parked cars on the state
highway in front of the church. Thankfully she was
not seriously injured. New no parking signs were
placed on the roadside and we were warned that cars
will be ticketed. Please obey all traffic signs and laws
when driving to and parking for Church and school
events. Please use the parking area between the
church and school as the first place to try and park.
We will try to have the gates open for easy traffic flow.
The gate behind Jeanfreau’s market on Trist St. is always open. We created a new parking area next to
the gym also which has parking bumpers and is fairly
close to the entrance by the baptism fount inside the
church. These two lots and along the streets on
church and school property are the best places to park
and not inconvenience or endanger anyone. Please
drive slowly in the area. The parking lot will only take
a few minutes to empty so have patience and don’t
rush to get out of mass and on the road.
Coming to the church earlier before mass will help the
traffic situation. It is good to not be rushing into the
parking lot and walking in late after mass has begun.
We need time to transition from our daily thoughts
and distractions to worshipping God. You can spend
the early time in the church in silent prayer or praying the rosary with the congregation. Confession is
also available before mass. Proper preparation for the
Eucharist will bring you more of God’s peace to face
the hectic world.
Courtesy, patience and consideration of others is part
of being a good neighbor and Christian love and
respect. “Go and do the same!”
Yours In Christ,
Fr. Lance Campo
PS: I will be away next week for a short retreat

Collection. Our support of this collection
helps build the Church in African American,
Native American, and Alaska Native communities from coast to coast. Schools, parish religious education programs, and diocesan ministries depend on your generosity to
help them spread the Gospel of Jesus Christ!
You can help meet unmet needs with a generous contribution today. Thank you for
your support!

We would like to thank all of
our volunteers who helped
with the Vacation Bible School.
It could not have been as successful as it was with our all
your help. We truly appreciate
the generous donations we received that helped
with our VBS. We are THANKFUL for all our
donations and volunteers that worked so hard
to make everything great for the children.
As part of the ongoing promotion of the Jubilee
Year of Mercy, the Office of Evangelization would
like to take this opportunity to catechize and further explain the Jubilee Indulgence. The Indulgence can be obtained by walking through the Holy Door at St. Louis Cathedral, or by visiting the
other specially designated pilgrimage sites listed
below. In addition to a pilgrimage, the Jubilee Indulgence may also be obtained through participating in the Corporal and Spiritual Works of Mercy.
Whether one walks through the Holy Door, goes
on pilgrimage, or participates in a Work of Mercy,
it is necessary to receive Holy Communion, participate in the Sacrament of Reconciliation, and pray
for the Holy Father within three days to receive the
grace of the indulgence. For the sick and those unable to participate in a pilgrimage or Work of Mercy, Pope Francis has granted the ability to obtain
the same Jubilee Indulgence by receiving Holy
Communion or participating in Mass through various means of communication (TV – WLAE Sunday 11:00 AM/Radio – 690AM Sunday 11:00
AM). Lastly, Pope Francis granted the Jubilee Indulgence to prisoners, stating that they can receive
the indulgence in their prison chapels. In the Archdiocese of New Orleans, Archbishop Aymond has
designated the following Churches as Jubilee Pilgrimage Sites: Cathedral Basilica of St. Louis
King of France (Only Holy Door) National Votive Shrine of Our Lady of Prompt Succor
Shrine of the Vietnamese Holy Martyrs St. Jude
Shrine National Shrine of Blessed Francis Xavier Seelos St. Joseph Church and Shrine on the
Westbank St. Joseph Abbey Divine Mercy
Parish St. Ann Church and Shrine
