    01066827 Vol. 45, No. 12 immaculate conception cathedral Historic ceremonial dedication rite honors restoration work, those who made it possible By Pamela Seal (Reprinted with permission) “Temple. House. Presence. Prayer.” These are the words that come to mind when we dedicate the church,” said the Most Rev- erend Glen John Provost, Bishop of Lake Charles, as he presided at the Solemn Dedication of the newly restored Cathedral of the Immaculate Conception on Aug. 31. “What was established in the early Jerusalem, we see here and now in this artistic creation Bishop Provost has blessed new Holy Water, which he uses to bless the church of the new holy city,” Bishop Provost said in praising the massive project accomplished in the edifice and the people. He is aided by Deacon Andrew DeRouen.( Photo by Allie Livingston) Cathedral, located at the corner of Kirby and Bilbo streets in downtown Lake Charles. The Rite of Dedication included the anointing of the altar and walls of the church with Sa- cred Oil of Chrism. The use of Sacred Chrism is significant in that it is only used a few times in the life of the Church — baptisms, confirmations, Holy Orders and the dedication of a church, according to the Very Rev. Ruben J. Buller, Vicar General of the Diocese. “Because there has been major construction in the church, the consecration of the altar with the Oil of Chrism is called for, along with the consecration of the walls of the church,” said Father Buller. The altar is new and was dedicated for the first time.
