Our parish is conducting the Catholic Service Appeal Commitment.
The appeal's name change is to remind us that our actions, our prayers and our financial investments as Catholics of Northern Louisiana are all given to honor and serve God and our neighbors.
Please remember that the appeal is much different than a one-time special collection. It is a pledge where you can make a gift payable in installments. Each pledge makes a difference! Your generous support enables our diocese to deliver needed ministries and services that positively impact people of all ages throughout the diocese.
If you would like to make your donation online, you can go to the Diocese website and click on the "Donate to the Appeal" button at the top of the page.
Here is the 2023 Catholic Service Appeal video below, and the Appeal Prayer:
Lord God,
Thank you for the blessings of life, faith, and family, the sacrifice of your son, Jesus, and the beautiful gifts of nature and the goodness of others that surround us each day.
All that we are and all that we have we owe to you. Give us the courage to love and serve you and your people through our support of the Catholic Service Appeal.
May we give generously, never counting the cost, offering back all we have so that the most vulnerable neighbors among us may be drawn closer to your saving love.
We ask this through Crist, our Lord, AMEN.
