Few
cities in the world are so identified by a
building as is New Orleans. The city is instantly recognized by our
cathedral and its position overlooking Jackson Square. The
Cathedral-Basilica of St. Louis King of France is the oldest Catholic
cathedral in continual use in the United States. As the caretakers of
the Historic place of worship, we constantly battle the elements and
the aging of the
Cathedral with ongoing conservation and restoration.
If you would like to make a donation in order that this national
historic landmark will remain the centerpiece in the great history of
New Orleans please click the button below.

Stand
up for our Religious Liberty
The
Constitution guarantees the freedom of conscience under
the First Amendment. However, on the weekend of January 28th
and 29th a letter from Archbishop Gregory Aymond was
read at
all the Masses in
the Archdiocese of New Orleans,
in which he stated,
“On
Friday, January 21, the U.S. Department of Health and
Human Services issued a ruling that mandates that employers, even
Catholic
employers and organizations, provide health care coverage for birth
control,
sterilizations and even abortifacients. This is an unprecedented attack
on our
religious liberty, which is a founding principle of our nation. This
ruling is
an example of government violating our rights to make choices based on
our
morals and Church teaching….”
“I ask for your continued
prayers for our nation and that
the dignity of human life and religious freedom may be protected. I
would also
recommend visiting
www.usccb.org/conscience“,
the US Conference of Catholic Bishops' website,
“ to learn more about
this severe assault on religious liberty, and how to contact Congress
in
support of legislation that would reverse the Administration’s
decision…..”
“…..We
are not demanding that others live our
Christian values, but we should have the right to do so.” For the full text click here.
