As the saying goes: One good deed deserves another, especially when it comes to disaster relief between two dioceses affected by Category 4 hurricanes one year apart.

LAKE CHARLES – The first of the 2021-2022 series of Bishop Glen John Provost’s First Friday Men’s Prayer Breakfasts and Wednesday Women’s Prayer Luncheons — this cycle based on the Ignatius Catholic Study Bible: Genesis (Patriarchal History) — begins Friday, September 3, and Wednesday, September 8.

The 41^st annual Bishop’s Services Appeal, a fundraising campaign to assist in the operation of various ministries and programs of the Diocese of Lake Charles, kicked off the weekend of Sept. 11-12 in church parishes throughout the diocese.

Bishop Provost has issued the following statement:

The Center for Catholic Studies hosts four six-week courses a year led by local experts. This year, the Center will explore topics in Bioethics, Liturgy, G.K. Chesterton, and Theological Aesthetics. 

St. Louis Catholic High School is in search of a Physics and Environmental Science teacher. The teacher will be responsible for planning and implementing lessons that meet the Louisiana state standards along with assessing students’ knowledge of the curriculum. Candidates should possess knowledge of instructional methods appropriate for the courses and be familiar with computers and Microsoft programs.
