Juneteenth Commemorations

The Office of Black Catholic Ministries is collaborating with several community organizations to host Juneteenth commemoration events.  Please join us as we pray with the community on Saturday, June 11 at Libation and Remembrance of the Ancestors at 11am at 2513 Bayou Rd, New Orleans. Archdiocesan Office of Black Catholic Ministries Director, Dr. Ansel Augustine will lead a time of prayer with the community where all will remember their deceased loved ones who sacrificed to make a better way for all of us. At 12 noon on June 19, Dr. Augustine will lead a history lesson and prayer service at the Tomb of the Unknown Slave at St. Augustine Church. All are welcome.
