Thanksgiving Novena to St. Jude for prayers answered.
O Holy St. Jude, Apostle and Martyr, great in virtue and rich in
miracles, near kinsman of Jesus Christ, faithful intercessor of all
who invoke your special patronage in time of need, to you I have
recourse from the depth of my heart and humbly beg to whom
God has given such great power to come to my assistance. Help
me in my present and urgent petition. In return I promise to make
your name known and cause you to be invoked. St Jude pray for
us an all who invoke your aid. Amen.
Say three Our Fathers, Hail Marys and Glorias. Publication must
be promised. Thank you, St. Jude, for granting my petition. JCH
“Some of the money will be used for that and we
may an annual fundraiser.
We don’t know yet. We’re
still in the discussion
phase. It’s not all about
the money. It’s really
about creating a sense of
school pride for all of us.”
Neumann, whose old-
est child attends Our
Lady
of
Fatima
Elementary, said it’s
about uniting alumni, but
it’s also about promoting
St. Patrick.
“There are so many
alumni that have children
and grandchildren that,
unfortunately, aren’t going out to St. Pat’s,” she said.
Eleuterius, who has a child about to enter St. Pat’s,
agreed.
“We feel strongly that if we, who are alumni of
these schools, don’t invest in St. Patrick, then who
will?” he said.
“We understand how special it was and how great it
was to have that Catholic education. I especially do
because I went through eight years of public school.
There’s nothing wrong with public schools. I love pub-
lic schools. We have some of the best schools in the
state on the coast but, in my opinion, there is a unique
specialness that I experienced going from public school
to Catholic school. It’s hard to describe, but it’s there
and it’s real. So it’s not only about creating that legacy,
it’s about promoting St. Patrick. We just want to spread
the word.”

On pursuing the call to diaconal ministry
“The call to the diaconal ministry is one that I
wrestled with for many years. Was the call real? Is this
where God was leading me? Does God really have that
big of a sense of humor to call someone like me to
serve His flock? What I learned from wrestling with
God on this call is that God gets what God wants. I quit
fighting and trusted in God to lead Dori and I on this
journey,” said Cantrelle. “He has lead us through the
application process and the first year as Aspirants. It
has been a joyful, enlightening, and humbling experi-
ence so far. We continue to trust God as we enter this
next phase. And, if it is His will that we make it through
to ordination, then I will be blessed and will humbly
serve the Diocese of Biloxi wherever God and the
Bishop send me.”
