We’re so glad you’re here.
Whether it’s been a long time since you’ve been to Mass, or you’re simply visiting for the first time, know this: you are welcome at Saint Luke the Evangelist.
No matter where you are in your journey of faith, the Lord has brought you here—and we would be honored to walk with you.Mass Times
Sunday Mass Schedule
Daily Mass Schedule
We invite you to come as you are and join us in worship. The Mass is the heart of our life as Catholics, where we encounter Jesus Christ in His Word and in the Eucharist.Where to Find Us
910 Cross Gates BoulevardSlidell, LA 70461
We are located off of Gause Boulevard, in Cross Gates subdivision. When you arrive, you’ll find parking available around the church and parish campus. If it’s your first time, don’t worry — there will be people ready to help guide you.
When You Arrive
Walking into a new place can feel intimidating — but you are not alone.
As you enter the church, you’ll likely notice people praying quietly and preparing for Mass. We typically genuflect (a simple sign of reverence) or bow towards the tabernacle before taking our seat.
You’re welcome to sit wherever you feel comfortable.
During the Mass
The Mass is a sacred rhythm of prayer, Scripture, and worship.
Throughout the Mass, there will be moments of:
- Standing, sitting, and kneeling
- Listening to the Word of God
- Praying together
- Singing
If you’re unfamiliar with the responses or gestures, that’s completely okay. You are free to follow along as you’re comfortable, or simply observe.
There is no pressure — just be present and allow the Lord to meet you where you are.
Receiving Holy Communion
During Communion, Catholics who are properly prepared are invited to come forward to receive the Eucharist.
If you are not Catholic — or not yet ready to receive — you are still most welcome. You may either:
- Remain in your pew, or
- Come forward with your arms crossed over your chest to receive a blessing
Your presence here matters, and we are glad you are with us.
What Should I Wear?
Come as you are.
You’ll find people dressed in everything from casual to more formal attire. What matters most is not what you wear, but that you are here.Visiting with Children?
