Hurricane season begins June 1st be prepared!
It is customary for the New Orleans faithful to pray before the statue of Our Lady of Prompt Succor, asking for her intercession whenever harm threatens, praying:
Our Lady of Prompt Succor, Hasten to Help Us!
As we Approach the Louisiana bi-centennial we are reminded about the significance of the Battle of New Orleans, after which General Andrew Jackson himself came to the Ursuline Convent to thank the nuns for their prayers and to acknowledge the role of divine intervention in his triumph.
