RCIA will NOT meet on Wednesday, December 27, 2017. RCIA will resume Wednesday, January 3, 2018 and the lesson will be on "The Sacraments" presented by Dianne Rachal.

When PSR kicked off in September 2017, our K-4th grade children were each given a change jar. The purpose of these change jars was to take them home and raise money to help a local child in need. The Children were able to raise enough money to purchase a bike for this child for Christmas. They also had enough money left over to purchase several coats for children in need. As you can see in the pictures, they are so happy to have been able to give back during this Advent season. We are so proud of our children at St Pius X.

Today, December 13, 2017, was our Ladies Guild Christmas Luncheon. It was held at the beautiful Fairfield Manor Bed and Breakfast in Shreveport. We had a delicious meal and wonderful service. Our Lady of the Year is Earline Davis. There are photos on the Ladies Guild page under Organizations on our website.

PSR will resume January 10, 2018. Merry Christmas and Happy New Year to you all.

The Child Development Center and the St Pius X Church Office will be closed on Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday, December 25 thru 27th 2017 and Monday, January 1, 2018. Merry Christmas and Happy New Year to all of you. May God continue to bless us all in the new year.

We would like to extend a BIG "Thank You" to the Knights of Columbus for their delicious pork loin, mashed potatoes and gravy that was served at the Christmas Dinner. We would also like to thank the LEGS for their beautiful decorations and everyone's hard work for making the occasion so festive. And many thanks to all who brought their favorite dish.
