French table at Le Vieux Presbytere
Le Vieux Presbytère Museum, located at 205 Rue Iry Lejeune in Church Point, invites the public to the next monthly meeting of the French table at Le Vieux Presbytère at 5:30pm on Wednesday, October 1. No prior experience speaking French is needed as we learn conversational French with an emphasis on pronunciation. An additional goal is to master the pronunciation of the responses and acclamations to the Catholic Mass in French, which will be celebrated at Our Lady of the Sacred Heart Church in Church Point at 4pm on Saturday, October 18 as part of Le Grand Réveil Acadien in south Louisiana. Please join us!
