Coat of Arms Explained

Table of Contents

The Coat of Arms of the diocese is composed of two portions. The upper portion represents the See City of Houma by using the arms of the church of St. Francis de Sales, the titular of the Cathedral. These arms are composed of a red field on which is displayed a silver cross that is charged in the center with a gold enflamed heart to honor the Sacred Heart. These arms also contain a blue chief (upper onethird) that contains three golden fleur de lis. The lower half of the design is used to represent the Co-See City of Thibodaux by displaying the symbols of St. Joseph, patron of the Co-Cathedral.

This is accomplished by using a silver carpenter’s square between three silver lilies, which represent the French heritage of southwestern Louisiana.

Priests Prayer for Priests Gracious and loving God, we thank you for the gift of our priests.

Through them, we experience your presence in the sacraments.

Help our priests to be strong in their vocation.

Set their souls on fire with love for your people.

Grant them the wisdom, understanding, and strength they need to follow in the footsteps of Jesus.

Inspire them with the vision of your kingdom.

Give them the words they need to spread the Gospel.

Allow them to experience joy in their ministry.

Help them to become instruments of your divine grace.

We ask this through Jesus Christ, who lives and reigns as our eternal priest.

Amen.

Prayer for Deacons Lord Jesus Christ, servant of all, Send your Spirit upon our deacons and their wives as they serve your church.

Give them eyes to see the needs of your people.

Give them a discerning mind to know your truth.

Give them a generous spirit when they are tired but needed.

Give them a humble heart when their work goes unnoticed.

Give them peace of mind in obedience and service.

Give them health of body so they may serve with strength.

Make them fertile ground for your inspiration and love.

Comfort them when they question themselves and their ministry.

Grant them grace as they age so they may share your wisdom.

Make their hearts like yours so they may love your people.

Amen.
