Youth Leadership Award Diocesan Service Award

Diocesan Service and Youth Leadership Awards presented

During the month of August, Bishop Shelton J. Fabre, along with the pastors, presented the Diocesan Service and Youth Leadership Awards to lay men, women and youth in each of the church parishes in appreciation of their many unselfish contributions of time and talent to the life of the parish. Each pastor was asked to nominate two adult and two youth recipients for these awards, which are modeled after the diocese’s two patron saints and their charisms: St. Joseph (hidden service) and St. Francis de Sales (spirituality of the laity).

The recipients of this year’s diocesan service and youth leadership awards are as follows.
