Please support our Boy Scout Troop by purchasing Camp Cards after Masses on the weekend of April 7 & 8, 2018. Only $5.00 per card can help send a Scout to Scout Camp! Camp Cards are an on-line discount program similar to that of “Entertainment Books”. There are thousands of discounts that can be used all over the U.S. Thank you for your support!
Our CYO had a great day at WYD! Our participants were uplifted with words and song by great speakers on the theme - PRICELESS. 2,000 young people from the New Orleans area participated in this spiritual day which ended with a Mass with Archbishop Aymond, con-celebrated by our own Father Chris! Thanks to our KC's who gave a generous donation to help pay for the registration costs for the day!
Congratulations to our scouts - six rank advancements, two Eagle palms, 44 merit badges, Solar Eclipse patches, and numerous special awards, such as NOA Camping and Aquatics, Pro-Marksman, and Mile Swim.
