In an event filled with inspiring messages, the celebration of Mass, fellowship and Eucharistic adoration, young Catholics pondered how their lives uniquely fit into God’s vast design of creation during the SEEK 21 Conference Feb. 4–7 at Sacred Heart of Jesus Church in Baton Rouge. 

Lent can also be a time of great joy and anticipation as the faithful accompany Jesus along the path to his resurrection.

To honor women religious in the Diocese of Baton Rouge and nationwide the local community is joining in a collaborative effort to end hunger during National Catholic Sisters Week March 8-14. 

Father Carville has a long history in ministry with families and young adult Catholics largely through his overseas mission work. He began priestly ministry after ordination with seven years at Cathedral Prep School in Baton Rouge as teacher, rector and assistant coach.  

The Lenten journey continues as we navigate the path paved with stones of prayer, fasting and almsgiving. The Sunday Mass readings for the Second and Third Sundays of Lent unveil virtues of God’s most faithful, most poignantly the virtue of obedience. For by obedience we grow in faith on our journey to Easter.
