After the tragic loss of Father Mark Beard, Bishop Duca has appointed Fr. Miles Walsh, a retired priest of the Diocese of Baton Rouge, as Administrator of St. Helena Church in Amite. It is the Bishop’s intention to name a new pastor of the parish in the coming months.
Bishop Duca is grateful for the pastoral wisdom that Father Walsh will bring to the people of northern Tangipahoa and St. Helena civil parishes as he oversees the parish’s administrative affairs and provides sacramental ministry to this community of faith.
Congratulations, Fr. Walsh, and thank you for your service!
