If you haven’t already heard…
Bishop-Elect Simon Peter Engurait is officially the next shepherd of the Diocese of Houma-Thibodaux! 🥳
During the press conference for his announcement, Bishop-Elect shared several beautiful reflections about how he found out he was going to be the next Bishop, how the Blessed Virgin Mary inspires him as a priest (and now Bishop), and his top priorities for the diocese. In his words, “I promise to listen, to learn, and will labor with you and for you… I love you, and I consider it a great honor to serve as your next bishop.”
To read more about how Bishop-Elect Simon Peter found out he was selected as the next Bishop, and to hear his other reflections, grab a copy of the Bayou Catholic Summer magazine from your parish, or read it online at bayoucatholic.org!
(The Episcopal Ordination and Installation of Bishop Elect Simon Peter Engurait is scheduled for Friday, September 5, 2 p.m. at St. Francis de Sales Cathedral).
