[StBernard] Lack of Catholic Pastoral Care

[Westley Annis]

 	 Since I been back to St. Bernard Parish the Southern Baptist has
been their for my family. From clean up supplies, prayer support to food
assistance. As a Catholic I often ask myself, why is my Church not in the
streets outreaching?  

Below are the numbers of the Southern Baptist Church disaster relief
activity I found on their web site.

Why are we not reaching out as they do? 

My answer!

Because Catholics are not committed to mission work, nor taught mission work
as the Southern Baptist!

 

A Catholic struggling to remain Catholic in St. Bernard.

 

 You can't argue with this!
