A few years ago, I discovered a healing ministry called Rachel’s Vineyard.  It is a ministry that provides healing and forgiveness for women who have had abortions, and also for women and men who have suffered from abortion.   Rachel’s Vineyard is a 3-day retreat facilitated by both laypeople and clergy.

We Ask for Prayer for Dobbs Supreme Court case to overturn Roe v. Wade. Abortion takes the lives of over 600,000 babies per year in the United States. The upcoming Supreme Court case, Dobbs v. Jackson Women’s Health, is our greatest opportunity in a generation to change that. Join with Christians across the country – Catholic and Protestant – to unite in prayer and fasting for a just decision in the Dobbs case. Learn More

The definition of anamnesis is to make a past event become present now. This is why, as Catholics, we can say that the bread and wine actually become the Body and Blood of Christ. Not because we made it up, but because Jesus said so himself. In his own words, Jesus said that when one of you (the twelve apostles who become priests on Holy Thursday and later ordained other priests) do this, you will make the moment of my offering on the Cross present and real.

I look at the families who choose to be plugged into each other’s lives, and even more importantly, into their relationship with God, and something is very different. There is a peace that cannot be gained by just keeping things afloat.

Take a look at the 10 year funding history our diocese has received from Catholic Extension to support our mission! Thank you!

After years of watching cultural trends in the U.S. Catholic Church and the nation overall, Bishop Louis F. Kihneman III of Biloxi, Miss., came to a stark realization. To survive and flourish in an increasingly secular climate, he said, the church needs to completely change the way it does things, moving from what Bishop Kihneman calls a “culture of maintenance to one of mission.” A new evangelization initiative launched earlier this year in the Biloxi Diocese aims to transform Catholic life in southern Mississippi along these lines.

Catholic Schools in the Diocese of Biloxi raised $28,266.02 to assist St. Genevieve Catholic Elementary School from the Diocese of Houma – Thibodaux as their school and school family recover from Hurricane Ida. Thank you to everyone who contributed. You are truly the Hands of Christ. The money will be sent to St. Genevieve Catholic Elementary School to use as they see fit.

"Reading through this commendable work, I am very much taken with the idea that this pastoral guide, certainly a labor of well thought out ideas, should be studied with great care, while focusing on the idea of commitment to lifelong discipleship." + Christophe Pierre  Apostolic Nuncio

Efforts to save the Hyde Amendment are continuing, but now there's ANOTHER, huge battle shaping up over taxpayer funding of abortion. Congress is moving forward on a "human infrastructure" bill, which is likely to include things that many Catholics support, including expanded health care coverage. But there is serious concern that such health care proposals will include funding for elective abortion. Congressional leadership is using a rare process for this bill, known as "budget reconciliation," that requires fewer votes to pass it than most laws. That is why Congress must hear from YOU now! Tell your representatives that any health care proposals MUST NOT fund elective abortion.
