The French explorer Robert Cavelier de La Salle named the region Louisiana in 1682 to honor France’s King Louis XIV. The first permanent settlement, Fort Maurepas (at what is now Ocean Springs, Mississippi, near Biloxi), was founded in 1699 by Pierre PageLe Moyne d’Iberville, a French military officerSans from Souci BuildingCanada. Prior to November 1762, when France ceded territory rights of Louisiana to Spain, the Attakapas Region was mostly inhabited by Native Americans of the Attakapa-Ishak and Chitimacha tribes. There were only a sparse number of traders, ranchers and smugglers of European descent. Catholic Church records indicate that Acadians arrived in New Orleans in early 1764. Their family names were Cormier, Landry, Poirier, Olivier, Brazier, Richard, Deville, Degoutin, Coutrie, and others. Some moved on to find fertile land in the Attakapas region and beyond. Others settled along the Mississippi River west of New Orleans. In early 1765, there were 4 families of Acadians, a total of 21 people, who settled on the western Attakapas frontier, and shortly thereafter 37 more Acadians arrived.

  • Several New Sainthood Causes Introduced in the U.S. in Recent Weeks
    Several new sainthood causes introduced in the U.S. in recent weeks (Left to right) Charlene Richard, Auguste “Nonco” Pelafigue, and Dr. Gertrude Barber It is not a common occurrence for the Church in the United States, with its comparatively short Catholic history, to have a new sainthood cause introduced. Yet in recent weeks, three new sainthood causes have been opened by American dioceses. Two of these causes were opened by the Diocese of Lafayette, Louisiana. On January 11, Lafayette’s Bishop J. Douglas Deshotel opened the beatification causes for Charlene Richard and Auguste “Nonco” Pelafigue. Bishop Lawrence Persico of Erie, Pennsylvania announced on December 17, 2019 that he was officially opening the cause of Dr. Gertrude Barber, a laywoman who dedicated herself to educating special-needs children in the Erie area. Now that their causes of have been opened, the three are properly titled “Servants of God.” Additionally, Bishop Deshotel of Lafayette is expected to open soon the cause of World War II POW Father Verbis Lafleur, who died on a Japanese transport ship in 1944. Because Father Lafleur died in a diocese in the Philippines while serving as a chaplain for the Archdiocese of Military Services, those two sees must first approve the cause. Deshotel has told local media he does not anticipate this being a problem. Suffer the little children Richard is the youngest of the new candidates. At 12 years old, if her cause is successful, she will be the youngest American saint.

SLAWSON During the ante-bellum period and the era of Reconstruction, the religious life of black Christians in New Orleans cast in sharp relief the general experience of their urban counterparts throughout the South, namely, the tendency toward separate Protestant churches for blacks versus the nearly universal practice of integration in Catholic ones. New Orleans highlights this contrast because there the demography of black denominationalism was reversed. In the South, the majority of black Christians, slave and free, belonged to the various Protestant denominations; only a handful belonged to the Catholic body. In the Crescent City, however, the majority of blacks were Catholics, while the minority were Protestants. Black Catholics in New Orleans at- tended racially mixed churches down through the first decade of the twentieth century.

  • Cultural Catholicism in Cajun-Creole Louisiana
    Cultural Catholicism in Cajun-Creole Louisiana MARCIA GAUDET New Orleans musician and jazz legend Louis Armstrong was asked by a reporter if jazz was a form of folk music. His legendary reply was, “Pops, all music is folk music. I ain’t never heard a horse sing a song.” It might be said, as well, that all religion is folk religion. We do, however, recognize the differences between official doctrine and actual practice, particularly those “views and practices of religion that exist among the people apart from and alongside the strictly theological and liturgical forms of the official religion” (Yoder 1974: 2- 15). Unofficial religious customs and traditions are certainly a part of Roman Catholicism as it is practiced by Cajuns, Creoles, and other groups in southern Louisiana who also practice the official, organized religion. Don Yoder and other scholars agree that folk religion does not oppose a central religious body, but represents unofficial practices and ideas that have a dynamic relationship to official religion. As Amanda Banks notes, folk religion “includes those aspects that are often unsanctioned or not canonized by an official religion but are practiced as part of the religious experience” (Banks 1998: 216). Leonard Primiano, who feels that “folk” is a marginalizing term that sets it in opposition to “official” religion, has proposed the term vernacular religion instead for this type of religion, i.e., “religion as it is lived: as human beings encounter, understand, interpret, and practice it” (Primiano 1995: 44). As Primiano points out, even members of the religious hierarchy themselves are believing and practicing vernacularly (44-46).
