ON OUR COVER The beautiful sanctuary of the Cathedral of St. Francis de Sales in Houma with its gothic style is the home to many diocesan celebrations such as ordinations and the annual Chrism Mass. The parish was established in 1847 with Pere Charles Menard, who was known as “the Apostle of Bayou Lafourche and Bayou Terrebonne,” as its first pastor.

Seminarian Education Burses Have you considered investing in a seminarian?

A seminarian burse is an invested sum of money, the interest of which is used in perpetuity to help fund the education of men to the priesthood.

A seminarian burse is annually named for a deceased bishop, priest, religious or lay person by the original donor and can be added to and allowed to build up.

A burse is complete once it has reached $15,000.

Contributions may be sent to the Pastoral Center P.O. Box 505 • Schriever, LA 70395

985-850-3124

Each month the Bayou Catholic will publish additional contributions and together we will watch the burses grow.

It is our hope that each will attain the value of at least $15,000.
