If you have not been to confession in a while, give it some thought and prayer: The Light is on for YOU!
To enable us to prepare better for the celebration of Christmas, all the Catholic Churches in the Diocese will offer the opportunity for Confession on each Wednesday evening prior to Christmas.
Here at St. Edmond’s, Confessions will be heard:
Wednesday Evenings on Dec. 4th, 11th, & 18th from 6:30-8:00pm
St. Edmond Parish Administration Building Dedication Father Gary Schexnayder
Dedication of the St. Edmond Religious Education Building – In Loving Memory of Mrs. Rosemary Benoit
Please help our CCD students spread Christmas love and cheer to local nursing home residents!
You can help by donating blank Christmas Cards/envelopes for our students to send to residents at nearby Nursing Homes.
Please place your blank Christmas Card donations in the donation basket located in the church vestibule or bring them to the Church office. There is also an Amazon Wishlist featuring items to gift to the Nursing Home residents who may have no one to give them a Christmas treat. Thank you in advance!
You must each decide in your heart how much to give. And don’t give reluctantly or in response to pressure. “For God loves a person who gives cheerfully.”
– 2 Corinthians 9:7
The annual Giving Tree will be in Church the weekend following Thanksgiving. Parishioners are encouraged to take an ornament from the tree.
Each ornament represents a child who has a Christmas wish of either a toy or clothing. The ornament provides the gift details related to the child.
All gifts are to be returned to the Church office by Monday, December 16th. The gift should be wrapped and the ornament should be affixed on the outside of the packaging so we can make sure it is given to the correct child.
“When I was hungry, you fed Me”
— Jesus
Food collection containers for the Thanksgiving & Christmas Food Baskets will be in the vestibule of the Church and the Atrium of the Church Office during the month of November & December.
Collecting non-perishable food items only.
“When I was naked, you clothed Me”
— Jesus
It’s that time again to clean out the closets of gently used coats, sweaters, scarfs, beanies, and gloves to donate to the less fortunate of Acadiana.
Donations of adults, children, & babies sizes are welcomed. Drop boxes are located at each entrance of the church and the Atrium of the Administration Building.
Women’s Prayer Group
“Beautiful Mercy” Women’s Prayer Group meets at 6:30 pm every 2nd and 4th Tuesday of the month in the Meeting Room of the Family Center. Come and join our faith-filled group of women for prayer and reflection.
Next meeting: Tuesday, Dec. 10th, 2024 at 6:30 pm
Deuteronomy 14:23 says, “The purpose of tithing is to teach you always to put God first in your lives.”
There is now a YOUTH TITHINGS basket in front of the altar. While the ushers are passing the collection basket at the pews, we ask the parents to send their children to the basket at the altar to place their donations. Let the kiddos have fun with it. Give them a bunch of coins so it’s loud & noisy when they drop it into the basket!
It’s not about how much they give. This is about teaching children to have sympathetic & charitable hearts, & it’s a fun way to bring the children to the altar.
