Whether you were a nun who prayed for favorable weather, a committee chair, a stalwart volunteer, a conscripted helper, a student in search of volunteer hours, a generous soul who picked up a piece of trash, a weekend pass holder, a returning visitor, a one-time drop-in or a party crasher… thank you for making this past weekend such a beautiful, joyful, smashing success!

There were movie projectors, popcorn poppers, pizza mediators, face painters, cotton-candy twirlers and ride operators; church tour guides, rosary leaders, musicians, choristers, welcomers and people willing to take your money; cooks, bakers, boilers, choppers, smokers, preppers, peelers, rubbers, shredders, cutters and servers; designers, archivists, stuffers, printers, decorators and table setters; dish cleaners, table wipers and trash haulers. Thank you for helping!

Attendance was estimated to be 500 on Friday, 700 Saturday during the day, 400 Saturday evening and 200 Sunday afternoon. Thank you for coming!

Amen! To God be all the glory!

The “party of the century” was a celebration seven bishops and ten pastors in the making, none of whom would take credit for what the Body of Christ, the Church, is moved to accomplish through the Holy Spirit.

Now the beginning of our Centennial is over we can look forward to other anniversary events down the road. Having had a taste of real Creole food, you will want to set aside Saturday, February 22 for our Mardi Gras party. Watch for the rescheduled fireworks. Think of Our Lady of Fatima. Be sure to take advantage of future opportunities to visit the St. John Museum. And, most importantly, put on your thinking cap about how we can continue to improve what we do to promote the Mission of the Church, which is the conversion of sinners and the salvation of souls.

Learn the Faith! Worship the Lord! Be an Apostle!

God bless you and thank you.

Fr. Christopher J. Pollard
