Hello everyone!
Just wanted to drop a picture of the iconostasis after receiving a shipment from Legacy Icons!
Hello everyone!
The Go Fund Me that I recently created for the furnishing of icons on the iconostasis and for two candle sand stands and a homily lectern have all been purchased. I want to thank all the donors who made this happen!!! I will send pictures as soon as it all arrives!
I am raising funds to furnish the St. Maximus Fellowship iconostasis with the standard icons (links below) that are appropriate for an iconostasis.
Below are the links to the icons (and a few other items) that will be used for the iconostasis:

Hello everyone,
Over the weekend I was able to install Deacon’s Doors. Behind the new doors are a prothesis and a small sacristy. As you can tell from the picture, it is still a work in progress and is in need of more icons, but I wanted to share the good news of the latest development!
Hello St. Maximus Fellowship!
We had a great time last Friday with Fr. Dcn. Gregory Haddad who came by to celebrate Deacon’s Typika and distribute Holy Communion!
Hello everyone!
I added two side doors to the chapel and painted it another color. Take a look!
Hello everyone!
As a reminder, on the 26th we will have a Typika service led by Fr. Dcn. Gregory Haddad who will administer Holy Communion. We are tentatively scheduled for 2 PM CST, but this time may be subject to change. Please email louisianaeasterncatholics@gmail.com if you would like to attend!
Hello everyone! I have some good news! I built a cantor stand that swivels. This way we can do services like Vespers with more convenience.
The St. Maximus Eastern Catholic Fellowship met yesterday for a Reader’s Typika service and it was a success! Thank you to all who were able to come! I was truly honored to pray with you all in the Eastern tradition. For those who were not able to come, not to worry, as we will have another service in two weeks with Fr. Dcn. Gregory Haddad, who will also distribute Holy Communion to all Catholics present. Stay turned for more updates on the Services page.
If you know anyone in the Northeast Louisiana area that may be able to attend the next service, please share this information with them and have them email me at louisianaeasterncatholics@gmail.com if there are any questions!
I am excited to announce that the St. Maximus the Confessor Eastern Catholic Fellowship is now an official outreach of St. Basil the Great Byzantine Catholic Church (Irving TX) and is under supervision of Fr. Elias Rafaj. This not only makes the fellowship official, it also opens up opportunities for the celebration of the Divine Liturgy, along with direction from an experienced pastor of the church! Please pray the Lord will bless the fellowship and that Eastern Catholicism will flourish in Northeast Louisiana.
