LifeTeen Band Mrs. Frances T. Toups, Director
Coming from a vast array of musical backgrounds, the members of our LifeTeen band have all answered God's call to share their musical gifts with our church community. The band continues to provide contemporary Catholic and Christian music for occasional Praise & Worship sessions as well as our annual weekend retreat for the teenagers involved in our LifeTeen program. |

Liturgical Ministries |
|
Altar Servers Contact person: Mrs. Frances at ftoups@ololcatholic.com Updated Altar Server schedules are mailed four times a year (late November, late February, late May, and late August).
Children and teenagers (girls and boys) who have already made their First Communion are invited to consider joining the ministry of Acolytes (Altar Servers) for our weekend Masses. As often as possible, the coordinator of the program attempts to schedule our altar servers according to their choices for Mass times. Training sessions are held each year. Please contact Mrs. Frances in the church office (337-937-6888) to submit a child's/teenager's name for this ministry. When a training session is scheduled, she will mail postcards to all interested families. |

Extraordinary Ministers for Homebound Holy Communion

Broussard after a weekday or Sunday Mass. |
