St. Joan of Arc Parish and School Staffs, LaPlace, LA

March 7, 2005

It was a privilege to be among some wonderful people in Garyville, LA (even thought I did get a ticket!!!) to talk about Lent and Easter. I did a retreat day called “Burros, Basins, Bricks and Bouquets.” The grounds there (the hermitage) is AWESOME. It was my first time to be out there…there is a rosary garden and a wonderful prayer space. All my friends from the New Orleans area…you need to check this out when you need an afternoon away for some quiet time with Jesus.

Thanks to Fr. Billy and to Larry B., principal, for the wonderful opportunity to be among your dedicated staffs. I was impressed with their feedback and find your people are blessed to have them serve among the community.
