LAFAYETTE, La. â UPDATE: The Lafayette City Council has voted to reject an emergency ordinance to mandate masks or facial coverings in certain establishments and public places.
Glenn Lazard and Pat Lewis voted in favor of the ordinance, which was rejected by a 3-2 vote.
The council received more than 3,000 calls regarding the proposed mandate, with 999 of those calls in favor of the ordinance.
We reached out to the three council members who voted against the ordinance, but did not receive a response.
Twenty years ago, the Eternal Word Television Network (EWTN) launched
The Journey Home, a program of compelling stories of conversion to Catholicism.
Catholic World Report recently spoke with Marcus Grodi, host of this long-running television/radio show and founder of the Coming Home Network, which supports those on the journey to the Catholic Church.
CWR: How are things at the Coming Home Network?
Marcus Grodi: Good, very good. I’m very excited about all the aspects of it. One of the biggest changes, which occurred a couple years ago, is that my son JonMarc became the chief operating officer. So he and the rest of the staff are doing all the work; I just drink coffee if even that. He’s also recruiting some new blood into the organization, who have made the Internet and media outreach and our forum a superb example of the New Evangelization. So it’s really exciting to see what’s happening here.

STEUBENVILLE Steubenville City Schools Board of Education has a 7-acre property on Stanton Boulevard members are hoping at some point to develop, though at this point Superintendent Melinda Young said they haven’t settled on a plan.
A request to rezone the property from Community Commercial (B-2) to Public and Semi-Public is on the Steubenville Planning and Zoning Commission agenda for Monday’s meeting, listing as the intended purpose “the possible construction of baseball and softball fields, possible stands, dugouts, concessions, restrooms and equipment storage.” The board will be asked to accept the application, request legislation and schedule public hearing for April 5.
