INTRODUCTION

   This introductory page, by the power and guidance of the Holy Spirit, is meant to be (and will be) composed to not only introduce visitors to the chapters (shown above) of this Louisiana Sacred Story but to the website, itself.  Hopefully, it will give information and guidance to help a new visitor to travel through these pages with greater ease and understanding. 
 
   The main purpose of the Spiritual Bulletin Board of Louisiana is first and foremost to provide a network between Louisiana Catholics that are trying to evangelize in these times of trial and tribulation.  Discussions with many visitors and others are revealing a real problem of having too much available data and the uncertainties of AI entering our lives.  Being simple and childlike helps in these times (Matthew 18: 1-5).

   Certainly, what is here is not meant to be limited for reflection by only Louisiana Catholics!  The USCCB reminded the entire American Church in November of 2002 that we are all called to "go and make disciples"!  There are no limitations to that calling!

   We ask "OurLady of Many Titles" to please pray to the Holy Spirit so that we can be more open to all the gifts that are available so that we can better
evangelize.  We are called to bring our Catholic faith into the public square.  That is not an easy task.  Are we responding as we should in the face of that challenge?  In most cases, absolutely not! 
​
   Most wanting to evangelize remain very comfortable to "receive" from the Holy Spirit but fail to fully reach out to others in order to "give away" what has just been "received".  The only way to fully "receive" the gifts of the Holy Spirit is to "give them away" to others!  

   The mission field is getting more difficult to work in during these turbelent times.  There is so much happening that tends to keep our minds off of "things of God". There are many things we may want to know but really do not need to know.  We should often ask the Holy Spirit to help us to discern what we really need to know and what we simply want to know.

   After viewing the events page, if you have continued to read this far, you have gone further than about 86% of visitors.  By this time (typically 3 minutes into the read), most have left the website and have gone elsewhere in search of more exciting information.  Most bounce from topic to topic and do not absorb much on the way.   If viewed and considered a bit longer, one would see information on this website, not necessarily exciting in nature, but with an underlying value to Louisiana Catholics who are sincere about
evangelizing in the public square.

   What you will read below, and throughout the chapters that are listed above, is this author's imperfect attempt to convey certain information received and discovered over the last 33 years.  Hopefully, at least parts of a chapter's content is potential "need-to-know" information for your discernment and possible use, in your ministry, wherever the Holy Spirit is leading YOU to
evangelize!  

   Not from Louisiana!  No problem!  The information is relatable to you and for you - wherever you are.  It really is about a "spirituality of childlike simplicity" that is available for all to live and use in one's own ministry - wherever located. 
                In this case. K.I.S.S. means Keep It Simple Soul! 
     Pope Paul VI reminds us that it is all about the Holy Spirit!

   So, wherever YOU are located, this is an opportunity to become aware of a Eucharistic anointing, that was first placed on a land over the eons of time, and is now in our hearts, that is not limited by either time or space.  It is about trying to live a lifestyle of simple "Thanksgiving"!   So, trudge on, and
                               Partake of these living waters

   The content of these chapters is an attempt to help all put their minds back onto the things of God - that are directly around us.  To help us turn away from the volumes of unneeded information that is available in every direction and to return to what has direct meaning for us and our families.  We are most responsible for reaching out to those who are immediately around us!  Come, Holy Spirit!  Help us to turn away from the distractions!

   The Holy Spirit calls us to first and foremost to be obedient to Him and to: 
                           "Bloom Where You Are Planted"!   

   Even the good things we do in our faith walk, with good intentions, can have a tendency to become habitual and automatic, at times.  We can tend to become "mechanical" even in practicing the best of devotions.  At times, we can feel isolated and alone from the rest of the Church, even when praying alongside its members. 

 
   Over the years of working with Adoration Chapels to increase adorers, that is a common "feeling" of eucharistic adorers.  To feel alone.  To feel one is really not accomplishing anything!  But here, we are addressing spiritual matters, in our fight against satan and his followers, that are much deeper than just "feelings"!

   The above are tactics used by the evil one to separate, divide and destroy the Church by enticing us to hastily move in accordance with our "feelings".  We must slow down and go deeper than our "feelings". 

   My spiritual director once said that we often become like "spiritual butterballs" in prayer.  His point was:  Unless we intentionally and studiously listen to the Holy Spirit, we move mostly by what we "feel" not by what the Holy Spirit is telling us to do.  Therefore, we often fail to take the last step in effective 
evangelization.  Come, Holy Spirit!  
​
   Even when we feel we are "all prayed up" for the task before us, we often fail to move into an effective action mode!  If so, our action could be determined to be a "not anointed" one and ends up being just more work.  In other words, we simply fail to "close the deal" and evangelize others, as we are all called to do!  Come, Holy Spirit, help us to hear your directives! 
  Let us stop again and revisit what Pope Paul VI said about that

   Hopefully, this Sacred Story can help all visitors to see that it is really about having a personal relationship with the Father and the Son and the Holy Spirit.  We are not called to walk alone.  We are called to walk in community.  The relationship is not meant to be just a "Jesus and me" thing.  To that specific point, s
cripture says in:

​​

Matthew 18:19-20  

19 Again, [amen,] I say to you, if two of you agree on earth about anything for which they are to pray, it shall be granted to them by my heavenly Father.  20 For where two or three are gathered together in my name, there am I in the midst of them.

​​

Hebrews 10:25

25 We should not stay away from our assembly, as is the custom of some, but encourage one another, and this all the more as you see the day drawing near.


   Our Triune God has left the "Louisianawim community" with many signs and symbols to help boost the courage of the Louisiana Church Militant at this time.  This site, and its chapters, seek to bring life back into any "dry bones" that might be out there (Ezekiel 37:1-14).  There is no need to wonder why that reading is chosen as one of the readings for Pentecost?  "Dry bones" are spiritually "dead bones"! 

   The reception of the Holy Spirit compels us to go forward and outward to give that life to others who are in need of it.  Dry (dead) bones cannot effectively
evangelize!  Louisiana has been created to be a land of life and to bring that life to others!  In other words we are here to evangelize - uniquely in the power of the Holy Eucharist! Without walking in the Holy Spirit, we will fail in that mission!

   As you will read in the chapter titled Louisiana and the Holy Eucharist, this land we today call "Louisiana" was built over multiple millenneum using water and land from elsewhere.  It is a unique part of the earth that is the relocated aggregate of the "heartland" of America.  The best land in America brought southerly to the sea by the water of a "Great River". 

   A Great River of life-giving water that one might say runs through a present day "New Jerusalem" - should one dare to call America that (Revelation 21)!   Do not forget, the next and last chapter in scripture is the Glorious Return of Jesus (
Chapter 22)! Are we indeed living in the times that are preparing for His return?  It is believed we are!  To read a chapter of this website that addresses one part of Louisiana's role in preparing for that glorious event, please click here.

   If you do agree to accept the premise that America may be today's "New Jerusalem", then the "Heartland of America" (the water basin of the Great River) may be thought of as the "Holy Temple" in the center of that "New Jerusalem". (To help you accept that inspiration, please note the Holy Spirit "dove-like" outline of the water basin of the Great River and that the exact center of the name "Jerusalem" are the letters "USA").   

   If one further considers the signs and symbols left by God over the eons of time, then "Eucharistic Louisiana" might be considered to be a modern type of the "Holy Place" in the Temple. 

​
   If Louisiana is accepted to be the "Holy Place" in the Temple of that is the Heartland of America, then the most southern area of Louisiana (the Modern Delta) might logically be considered to be a form of the modern-day "Holy of Holies" of the Temple.  In fact, that delta area of Louisiana was created by that Great River before, during and after the birth of Jesus! 

   The imagery above, of Louisiana's place in space and time, is not unreasonable because of the real signs and symbols that would allow one to consider such a thing as they are.  These things are what they are.  The problem comes in trying to discern the message from the "thing(s) that are".  Again, all this is further covered in the chapter titled Louisiana and the Holy Eucharist.   

   Why signs and symbols, as used by God, are clearly explained in Paragraphs 1146 and 1147 of the Cathechism of the Catholic Church?  Simply, God speaks to us through signs and symbols.

   Considering all the above, one very important symbol/sign is the mother pelican feeding her baby chicks.  This symbol/sign particularly points to the tradition of the mother pelican sacrificing herself to feed her chicks so that they may live.  That is an age-old symbol/sign used by the Church of Jesus being lifted up and sacrificed on the cross so that all His creation may feed on and live in Him.  The mother pelican and Louisiana and their longstanding formal relationship, codified and then reaffirmed in 2006 in civil law, is very spiritually important.   Again, this will be revealed in more detail in this chapter page of the website.

   The above are statements that would tend to lift up the Louisiana Church - who are watching and listening.  The Catholic Church of Louisiana is annointed by the Holy Spirit to uniquely move to lift Jesus up and draw all people to Him as the Eucharistic Lord - as He Returns in His Glory!

​
   When considering what was stated above about the Modern Delta being the considered the "Holy of Holies", note that the land itself does not originate in Louisiana.  The land and the people all come from somewhere else.  The Louisiana Catholic Church of the Modern Delta is like an alien visitor in its own land!  A land and a people both drawn here from elsewhere for a unique and Holy Mission - to prepare for the return of Jesus!
​
   Be reminded of what Jesus declared in John 12:32 that: And when I am lifted up from the earth, I will draw everyone to myself.  In the case of the Louisiana Modern Delta, He even drew parts of the "earth" from elsewhere to create the same land that is to lift Him up.  Recall here that Louisiana is formally symbolized by sacrifice and the Eucharist!  Conversely, what is done, by the Church, in this Modern Delta is "mystically" done on the lands from all those other places.  This phenomenon (poorly explained by this author) deserves deep reflection as to its meaning and the responsibilities that go with it.

   As He Returns in His Glory and in part Louisiana's role in that is covered in the chapter titled: "Louisiana and the Sixth Glorious Mystery".  That chapter's activity, that began on May 17, 1998, in Houma, LA, will speak for itself, when it is read.  That entire series of events and the specific praying for Jesus' Glorious Return through Our Lady's rosary may actually be one "fruit" of the anointing that has been legally promulgated to this land.

   The simple "Louisianawim" lifestyle of performing multiple Random Acts of Faith, without having to understand the end product before it is known, but still acting on Holy Spirit promptings while it remains unknown, is exampled and narrated in the chapter titled:  "Our Lady Blesses America in 2001 and 2020".  The simple actions written about in that chapter were randomly chosen to begin in July of 1996 (although they began much earlier) and have continued through 2020...and are continuing today!  The Sacred Story unfolds!  On Saturday, July 13, 1996 something very powerful commenced!  The "it" that began that day belong to Our Lady of Rosa Mystica is really not fully known but it was/is big!

   One will read in the chapter last referenced that Our Lord allowed His Mother, under the title of Our Lady of America, to bless this great land of America twice in the face of and before two dark crises.  The first in 2001 (911) and the second in 2020 (the snake virus).  Multiple signs were left along the way, over the years, to affirm to all who will watch, listen and obey. 
              Our Lady of America, please pray and protect us!

   The chapter titled:  "Our Lady Speaks to America in 2024" is the one that gives this author the most instant concern.  The fact that Our Lady warned America so clearly in 2024 and then so few of Her Children are paying attention at all to what She specifically identified for them, using the heavenlies themselves, is very, very worrisome.   It seems like time is of the essence for America.

   The Holy Spirit set up a powerful natural phenomenon on the Solemnity of the Assumption in 2024 using some of the same signs and symbols that were used by Our Lady of Guadalupe in 1531.  In the first lyrics of the song: "There is a storm a comin" it states "goodbye to the sun".  America!  There is a storm a comin and I fear it is much greater than a weather event!

   Our Lady, often is "associated with the moon".  At Guadalupe, in 1531, She symbolically stood on the cresent moon and blocked the sun.  Then, in 2024, She actually (used the moon) and blocked the sun in 2017 and again in 2024 in America.  Therefore, She has blocked the sun in these three different events so that Her Children might see and turn away from the darkness of death and into the light of life.  In the part of chapter that deals with the two events in America, the key take-away point is where the two solar eclipses intersected in the "Little Egypt" area of Illinois.  When seeing all that, how can we ignore Her warning?
    The Aztecs obeyed Her!   America is struggling to obey Her!

   As that song also repeats: "Run-boy-run"!  We cannot run away from what is coming!  In fact, She always reminds Her Children that  we must run to Her Son, Jesus!  As She has for hundreds of years, She will remain the "guiding star" to all Her Children, as we run to Him under the Her beautiful title of:   

                               Our Lady, Star of the Sea.   
       Morgan City, LA area is has been on board for 50 years!

Actually, Our Lady will often lead us to, with, and on behalf of Her Son to run into the storm where we can evangelize in the crisis!   Led by the Holy Spirit, we can be an effective " Christ" in the crisis of any storm!
      
   If may appear in this narrative that this author is claiming that Louisiana is thought to be holier than other place.  That would be a grave misunderstanding.  This author nor Louisiana has the authority to assign the level holiness to anything.  Only God has that sole authority. 

   It is only because of the signs and symbols left by the Holy Spirit, over the years, that we even dare to speak of "holy" and Louisiana in the same breath.  Whatever level of anointing or its resulting holiness there might be from a sincere "YES", only God knows for sure.  He is the King of the kingdom!  Actually, if one studies the secular history of Louisiana, there is much that evidences that Louisiana citizens have responded in less than "holy" ways to many matters in the world.  Remember, we are called to be in the world - not of the world!

   The signs and wonders are clear, convincing and affirming.  Another battlefield has been assigned.  And, Louisiana is indeed an important one.  It seems that God has uniquely created and anointed Louisiana to
evangelize in the power of the Holy Eucharist in these times!

   Questions presently before us, in faith, are such as:  Do we really believe what we see?   Are we seriously discerning and choosing correctly in the face of those signs and symbols?  Most importantly:  What is their personal message to us?  As when the angels made choices before time began, some of creation in time will obey and serve Jesus and some will not serve Him.
                                 Serviam or Non Serviam
                                 (2/3 = YES or 1/3 = NO). 

   The saying that "a picture is worth a thousand words" is a good one to use for such mystical matters that are hard to put into words.  The image placed at the top of each page of this website is a pictorial demonstration of what is perceived Louisiana's role is (and will be) - as the Church journeys through a novena of years toward a New Pentecost!  The Church is headed to its 2000th Pentecost on June 4, 2033! 
                   (Forty; fifty year jubilees - a special time.) 
                           Oh, what a time to Praise God!

   As you will read and see, all the pages in this website are under continuing development.  One reason for that is because this is a Sacred Story that is not over and it is trying to be told by an inadquate story-teller. 

   No telling what is next!  As a example:  Who could have ever imagined that the Church would have a Holy Father in Rome with maternal ancestral roots deep in Louisiana!?  Not imagined but not unexpected!  All this is preparing a Louisiana-connected Church and getting it ready for Pentecost 2033...and thereafter!   

   This Sacred Story about Louisiana is not about any one person or groups of people or even a certain movement.  It is simply about the Church in Louisiana in its totality - ALL PERSONS in time (past, present and future) moving in unison in the Divine Will to
evangelize.  The Church Militant of Louisiana - the "Louisianawim" moving together in the Divine Will of God with the Church Triumphant, the Church Suffering and the Church Angelic! 
 

   And, what are our present-day scriptural instructions as we enter into this "New Spiritual Promised Land" that the Holy Spirit is preparing us for (and for us) in 2033?  For one set of instructions to follow, please read the Book of Joshua Chapter 1:6-9.  

   Absolutely none of the information across this website is original from this author.  It has all come either from the Holy Spirit and/or "others" also on their journeys in time!  Credit and gratitude is due and given to all those "others" who have shared.  Only together, does the story develop and be fully told,  This site is simply an attempt to connect all the information, as it is received and understood.  As it does, hopefully, it is like putting new life back into those dry bones!  


   The only testimony and claim of this author is in his personal experiences and the sin that is connected to them.  That is totally owned by the author!  That first became abundantly and terribly clear on Sunday, March 1, 1992, at about 2:30 pm, when personally experiencing the third torture of hell, as described in Paragraph No. 741 of the Diary of St. Maria Faustina Kolwaska.  Nothing else is really owned by this author but his sin.  And as to those charges that accompany that sin, this author can only plead "GUILTY" as charged!  God's MERCY is requested with and in all respects to that.   

   After that radical experience in 1992, one can tend to become radical, when required to.  That tendency to be radical, at times, appears across the narrative presented in these chapters.  Sorry about that but there is no way to avoid it. 
                     We serve an awesome (and radical) God!


   Please visit these pages often because they change often - as they further develop.  The Holy Spirit is constantly searching the authors limits and inspiring better ways to state things.  Want to know more about what is written - before more is written?  This author is always ready to speak about them.  Time is of the essence!    Just get in touch by using the contact information below and in the meantime continue to...
Praise the Lord!
