Catholic Daughters of the Americas Court 119, 100th Anniversary Mass this morning at 11 AM


The Catholic Daughters of the Americas Court 119 will celebrate 100 years at St. Landry Catholic Church with a mass this morning, Saturday, October 31, 2009 at 11 AM. The celebrant will be Bishop Michael Jarrell of the Diocese of Lafayette, Louisiana who grew up in our church parish.

Originally called the Daughters of Isabella, the organization has been very active in supporting our church. From donating one of the large art glass windows within the church, having the massive brass bell cast and installed in the bell tower at St. Landry Catholic Church, and in leading our parish rosary at the grotto during the months of May and October, the Daughters support all facets of parish life.

For more information about the mass, contact Debbie Fay at 594-8198.
