Memorial Gifts At the death of a loved one, many choose in lieu of flowers to encourage friends and family to make a donation to a special charity or cause. Our Lady of Mercy has nourished the spiritual life of so many parishioners and those throughout the Diocese who come here. A Memorial Gift to our Traditions for Tomorrow Building Campaign is a wonderful way to acknowledge the lives of our beloved dead with a gift of loving generosity to the church that has been such a spiritual home. Ms. Deanie Smith can discuss ways for you to remember your loved one. Consider adding a planned gift in your last will and testament to remember Our Lady of Mercy.

Needs of Real Consequence Invite a Community s Response Through the Bishop s Annual Appeal, Bishop Michael G. Duca continues decades of ministry support in the Diocese of Baton Rouge, connecting generous parishioners and worthy diocesan programs that directly serve those in need. Such a vast effort invites a commitment on the part of many, blessing thousands of our neighbors and friends, as we follow the example of Jesus Christ in search of the hurting and the lost. Together, we Follow the Shepherd s Lead, and respectfully ask you to do your part. What man among you, having a hundred sheep and losing one of them would not leave the ninety-nine in the desert and go after the one until he finds it (Lk 15:4)? This year, to honor the arrival of our new spiritual shepherd, you may decide to increase your gift in support of the BAA. With a gift of at least $500, become a member of The Crosier Society. Consider membership in the Bishop Ott Society with a gift totaling $1,000 or more. Or, with a generous gift of at least $5,000, become a charter member of The Shepherd s Society. As you pray about your participation, the detailed information Bishop Duca recently sent to you will help answer your questions and refine your decisions. If you ve yet to receive your packet, please email the Office of Stewardship, stewardship@diobr.org, or call (225) 336-8790. We will make sure you receive this year s BAA information right away. Visit www.baabr.org, and discover the ways you and your fellow Catholic parishioners serve others and meet needs. As a Catholic Church, we help fund vital work throughout the capitol region. God bless Bishop Duca and the faithful of the Diocese of Baton Rouge! 8 OUR LADY OF MERCY PARISH

GARDEN OF PEACE Feasts of All Saints and All Souls Dear Parishioners and Friends of Our Lady of Mercy, As the days of fall arrive, we are reminded of this special time of the year when we mark the approaching Feasts of All Saints and All Souls and remember our deceased loved ones. It is said that a great deal can be known about a community by looking at its cemeteries. Our cemeteries reflect respect and bestow reverence to our deceased ancestors. Our parish is presently in the process of promoting a beautiful Garden of Peace and Memorial Columbarium. This will consist of mausoleum niches for the reverent interment of cremains. The Garden of Peace is open and welcome to everyone --- Catholic and non-catholic alike. Within the City of Baton Rouge, there are no places of burial presently available on Church grounds. This beautiful addition to Mercy is an ideal and convenient place for the interment of the cremains of our loved ones. For many parishioners and friends, now is a perfect opportunity to think of our own place of burial and even those of our parents. Making such proper planning for this eventual reality is one of the best gifts we can give ourselves and others in taking the burden of these decisions off our loved ones. Pre-construction sale of columbarium spaces are now in progress. Columbarium spaces are priced at $5,000 for simple cremain boxes for two people and at $7,500 for columbarium spaces for Urns for two people. You may contact Deanie Smith at (225) 926-1883 to make your personal appointment in procuring your space in the beautiful Garden of Peace. Many of our ancestors who have gone to their eternal rest will find a most beautiful and dignified Garden of Peace in which to be placed. In the deep Catholic tradition of South Louisiana, each year on the Feast of All Saints, an annual blessing of the Columbarium Garden will take place. Families will be invited to partake in the prayer and blessing in remembrance of their beloved dead. Sincerely yours in Christ, Rev. Cleo J. Milano, Pastor Our cremains garden will be a history of people, a perpetual record of yesterday, a sanctuary of peace and quiet today and a statement of care and belief in tomorrow. Our beautiful Garden of Peace exists because every life is worth living and remembering always --- So that from the cradle to the grave, Mercy will be our true spiritual home. 10 OUR LADY OF MERCY PARISH
