For the past ten years the American Grand Commandery of the South has acted on our Lord’s parable of the Sheep and the Goats (Matthew 25:31-46). The Commandery, working through New Orleans Catholic Charities, funds a large motor coach to bring the families of persons incarcerated in Louisiana’s Angola prison for a Christmas visit with their loved ones. The prison is several hours away from New Orleans and often families lack the resources to undertake such a long trip.
Commander Michie Bissell DCLJ reports “It is our joy to help.”
