Sacraments

Baptism

In the Sacrament of Baptism we receive the outpouring of the Holy Spirit, which makes us members of the Body of Christ, the Church, and children of God. 

Please call the office to register for the class and to schedule a baptism.

The Holy Mass

The Mass is the highest form of worship in this world, since in the Mass we Commemorate the Cross and Resurrection of Jesus and He becomes present to us in His Body and Blood in the Eucharist.

Our Mass times are as follows:
Monday, Wednesday - Friday: 8:00 AM
Tuesday: 6:00 PM (During the school year this is our School of Religion's Mass.)
Saturday: 4:00 PM
Sunday: 9:00 AM & 11:00 AM

Ministry to the Sick or Shut-in

If you cannot attend Mass and would like to receive Communion at home, please contact the parish office.

Marriage

Contact the office at least eight months prior to the desired date. Confirmation of the wedding date must be made by the priest officiating the ceremony.

Anointing of the Sick

Anointing of the Sick is the sacrament for those who are in some danger of death due to illness, injury, or old age. You do not have to be in danger of dying soon to receive the sacrament, but as soon as you begin to be in danger, i.e. as soon as you are diagnosed, is the time to receive the sacrament. This sacrament gives grace for spiritual and physical healing to those who are most in need. Available upon request.

​For Sacramental emergencies, call the Emergency Line: (504) 356-1737

Confirmation

Confirmation is the last sacrament of initiation. In this sacrament, the baptized person receives the fullness of the Gifts of the Holy Spirit and the grace to witness to the faith in their lives. Those in high school prepare for the sacrament through the Parish School of Religion, and adults prepare for it through the RCIA.

• We continually grow in ministries that address the needs and concerns of our community.
• We strive to be a vibrant “Christ Centered” spiritual family and experience His love and presence in the celebration of the Eucharist.
