The Cathedral of the Immaculate Conception reopened on Saturday, June 29, for the historic ordination of one priest and four transitional deacons. The work on the restoration began last year and the Cathedral had been closed for major interior work since January 2019. Below you will find links to images detailing some of the completed work as well as earlier images of the progress of restoration as provided by Father Rommel Tolentino and others.

MOSS BLUFF --  There is plenty of excitement about the progress being made at the Camp Karol construction site!
