By Martina Moyski, Church Militant - Fête-Dieu du Teche organizer Fr. Michael Champagne, CJC, explained the purpose of the procession to Church Militant: "Here in Catholic Louisiana we can show America and the world that men and women, black and white, young and old, can exercise safely and peacefully our right to religious freedom and adore our God together." ... "The Church has always held eucharistic processions for the end of plagues and pandemics, and we do the same this year offering Fête-Dieu 2020 to overcome COVID-19," Fr. Champagne stated.
