LAKE CHARLES — St. Louis Catholic High School announced on October 3 it will begin advertising for bids on October 10 for two significant projects — construction of its new campus on Corbina Road and demolition of its hurricane-damaged Bank Street campus.

Blessed Carlo Acutis will be the first “millennial” to be proclaimed a saint by Pope Francis at some point during the 2025 Jubilee year. Born in 1991 to Italian parents, Blessed Carlo was a web designer with great love for the Eucharist who died from an aggressive form of leukemia at the age of 15 on October 12, 2006.

St. Joseph Catholic Church in DeRidder will offer a unique opportunity to learn more about Blessed Carlo through a bilingual display October 6-15 in Kern Hall. It will feature 110 panels focusing on some of the most powerful Eucharistic miracles in the world.
