Intercession is a prayer of petition which leads us to pray as Jesus did. He is the one intercessor with the Father on behalf of all men, especially sinners. He is "able for all time to save those who draw near to God through him, since he always lives to make intercession for them." The Holy Spirit "himself intercedes for us . . . and intercedes for the saints according to the will of God." - CCC 2634

We learned a lot about ourselves throughout COVID-19. As individuals, we had to rethink how we did just about everything in our day-to-day lives. Some would say we used to zoom back and forth from place to place before we were forced to actually do nothing but Zoom from place to place. As a Church, we had to examine many things, including how we could improve communication between the Church and parishioners. The Diocese of Biloxi is improving operations and communication thanks to a new partnership with Gabriel Software.

Jennifer Williams began her work in the Diocese of Biloxi on a part-time basis while working on a Bachelor of Science in Social Ministry.

Considering our current circumstances and Centers for Disease Control guidance, it now seems reasonable to withdraw the remaining dispensation from the obligation to personally participate in the celebration of Mass.

Jesús estableció la Iglesia Católica para evangelizar, y nos encarga hacer discípulos de todas las naciones, bautizarlos, enseñandoles todo lo que nos manda y confiar en que Él está siempre con nosotros. Vivir esta Gran Comisión de Jesús es tanto personal como comunitario. Cada uno de nosotros está llamado personalmente no solo a dar testimonio de nuestra fe, sino también a acompañar a otros en la fe. Cada una de nuestras parroquias, familias, escuelas y ministerios tienen la misma misión, y ésta debe fomentarse cada vez que la comunidad se reúne.

Jesus established the Catholic Church to evangelize, and he commissions us to make disciples of all nations, to baptize them, to teach all he commands us, and to trust that he is with us always.  Living out this Great Commission of Jesus is both personal and communal. Each of us is called personally not only to witness to our faith but also to accompany others in faith.  Each of our parishes, families, schools, and ministries have the same mission, and it should be fostered each time the community comes together.

We as a Church need to experience the life of Jesus. This is the way we come to know him and experience his love. The word of God invites us into a deep relationship with Jesus Christ, God the Father, and the Spirit of Jesus, and we, as Roman Catholics, truly need to embrace the Gospel of Jesus...
