It is not worthy of them. It is said that a cer­ tain canary, which used to charm its household with its song, was hung out­ side in summertime where it heard only sparrows twittering, with the result that it got to twittering too.

Many of the standing-room only crowd poured out of the cathedral to congratulate Deacon Johnson and Father Vu, who gave many blessings as a newly ordained priest. Among them were people from New Orleans, including Father Vu and Deacon Johnson’s classmates from Notre Dame Seminary, and religious men and women. Priests and deacons from the Diocese of Baton Rouge attended the ceremony, showing their sup- port for the newly ordained. Following the prayers of ordination, investiture, presentation of the book of the Gospels to Deacon Johnson and the anointing of hands and presentation of bread and wine to Deacon Vu, Bishop Robert W. Muench gave Father Vu and Deacon Johnson a kiss of peace. The deacons did the same for Deacon Johnson while the priests did so for Father Vu. Music, which was provided by the choirs of St. Joseph Cathedral, St. Francis Xavier in Baton Rouge, Assumption of Mary Mission Church in Avondale and various musicians, was an important Bishop Robert W.

  • July 23, 2018 REFLECTIONS on LIFE DIAMOND ANNIVERSARY PLUS
    July 23, 2018 REFLECTIONS ON LIFE DIAMOND ANNIVERSARY PLUS FIVE IN BROUSSARD, LA Father Jerome LeDoux, SVD Seventy-five years ago, Harold Robert Perry was entering his final year of theology at Saint Augustine Major Seminary in Bay Saint Louis, Mississippi. At the age of 13, I was just beginning my first year of studies in Saint Augustine Minor Seminary in September, 1943. Homesick after some hours of my first day there, I sat down on the steps of the auditorium and cried myself to sleep. Evidently alerted by someone, Harold approached me and we talked about my homesickness. Buoyed by his words, I got up, walked around and was soon running wild with the other boys. That was my first and only instance of homesickness in the seminary. How many others did Harold help along the way? He was ordained to the priesthood on January 6, 1944. He was the 26th African American to be ordained a Catholic priest. Unbelievably, there was just over a score of U.S. black priests at that time, compared to about 250 now, most of them not members of the Society of the Divine Word. There are also well over 400 black permanent deacons now. His first assignment was as associate pastor at Immaculate Heart of Mary Church in Lafayette until 1948, when he was transferred to Our Lady of Perpetual Help Church in Saint Martinville. Next, he served at Saint Peter Church in Pine Bluff, Arkansas 1949-51 and at Saint Gabriel Church in Mound Bayou, Mississippi 1951-52, before returning to Louisiana in 1952 as founding pastor of Saint Joseph Church in Broussard, Louisiana.

  • Homily at 25Th Episcopal Anniversary of Most Reverend Harold Robert
    HOMILY TWENTY-FIFTH EPISCOPAL ANNIVERSARY OF MOST REVEREND HAROLD ROBERT PERRY, S.V.D., D.D. BY MOST REVEREND JOSEPH A. FRANCIS, S.V.D., D.D. JANUARY 12, 1991 A few years ago a friend of mine told me that he was very leery of anniversary celebrations, especially anniversary celebrations commemorating long years of service in the priesthood. He was about to celebrate fifty years in the priesthood and twenty-five years in the episcopacy. He gave orders to the homilist that he would not stand for anyone getting up and telling a bunch of lies about all the great things he did. Then he reflected and said, ''on the other hand, I don't want them to tell the truth either.'' For several weeks, I, too, have been reflecting on what I would say today about my Friend Bishop Harold Perry since I really do not have any recollection about any lies, I am obliged to tell the truth especially since Bishop did not give me any orders. My reflections were really recollections about Bishop Perry. They go way back to 1947 when I first met the man, the priest who had affectionately been given the name ''pewee" by his fellow seminarians. I had heard so much about "pewee" even before I met him and in my mind I had subconsciously placed him as a role model for myself. In recollecting, like in reading a good book or watching a good movie, one wants to get to the really good parts. My thoughts raced on to arrive at 1965.
