Immaculate Conception Cemetery
In the back of a cemetery is the grave of Paul Gerow, age 2 months, from the year 1913. Leaned on his gravestone is a large wooden cross. His gravesite is in a state of neglect and the area around his grave has been used as a brush pile. Every other grave site at the Immaculate Conception Cemetery is kept up properly except for 2-month old Paul Gerow's. It turns out that this is the cemetery for the catholic church, next to the Troy School - the area where the hood was found. See Troy School Witch Hood. This is one of many satanic ritual sacrifice locations found along a hiking trail - that used to be a railroad line between Fitchburg MA and Keene NH. Every location exposes another piece of to the puzzle that proves that the U.S Military is now attacking their own country, killing their own civilians, stealing their land and resources, to set up a military police state in America.

ST LOUIS CATHEDRAL Catholic Church - New Orleans #Travel | Things to Do in New Orleans | LaneVids
I took my 9 month old daughter to the St. Louis Cathedral in New Orleans, LA to shoot a travel video about how cool this catholic church is in the heart of the Crescent City. ???? You HAVE to watch our latest video! ????
In the middle of Jackson Square in New Orleans, LA stands a huge catholic cathedral which is the oldest catholic church that is still in operation in the United States.
Some of the things that we saw while exploring this cathedral was the Old Baptistry, the Lobby of the cathedral and the gift shop. We checked out some of the statues around the church and all of the beautiful ornate artwork inside.
On the side of the St. Louis Cathedral is Pirate Alley which we walked down and I have some history about it. We also took a look at the back of the cathedral and they were renovating it for St. Anthony's Garden.

Driving Into Downtown New Orleans at Sunset – New Orleans Louisiana
New Orleans is a major United States port and the largest city and metropolitan area in the state ofLouisiana. The population of the city was 343,829 as of the 2010 U.S. Census.[2][3] The New Orleans metropolitan area (New Orleans–Metairie–Kenner Metropolitan Statistical Area) had a population of 1,167,764 in 2010 and was the 46th largest in the United States.[4] The New Orleans–Metairie–Bogalusa Combined Statistical Area, a larger trading area, had a 2010 population of 1,452,502.[5]
The city is named after the Duke of Orleans, who reigned as Regent for Louis XV from 1715 to 1723, as it was established by French colonists and strongly influenced by their European culture. It is well known for its distinct French and Spanish Creole architecture, as well as its cross-cultural and multilingual heritage.[6] New Orleans is also famous for its cuisine, music (particularly as the birthplace of jazz),[7][8] and its annual celebrations and festivals, most notably Mardi Gras, dating to French colonial times. The city is often referred to as the most unique[9] in the United States.[10][11][12][13][14]
New Orleans is located in southeastern Louisiana, straddling the Mississippi River. The city and Orleans Parish (French: paroisse d'Orléans) are coterminous.[15] The city and parish are bounded by the parishes of St. Tammany to the north, St. Bernard to the east, Plaquemines to the south, and Jefferson to the south and west.[15][16][17] Lake Pontchartrain, part of which is included in the city limits, lies to the north and Lake Borgne lies to the east.[17]
Before Hurricane Katrina, Orleans Parish was the most populous parish in Louisiana. It now ranks third in population behind neighboring Jefferson Parish and East Baton Rouge Parish.[18]

Easter 9:30am Mass 2012. St. Patrick's Church, New Orleans. Filmed by All About You Videography.
JOHANN MICHAEL HAYDN
On Easter Sunday at the 9:00a.m. and 11:00a.m. Masses, Saint Patrick’s Choirs and Chamber Orchestra will present the Missa Sancti Gabrielis by Johann Michael Haydn. J.M. Haydn was a younger brother of the more famous Franz Josef Haydn, composer of The Creation and the Lord Nelson Mass. Michael was born in 1737, five years after Josef, and followed in his brother’s footsteps as a chorister at the Cathedral in Vienna. There the younger Haydn seems to have been the brighter student, and the better singer. In 1762 Michael was appointed Director of Music at the Cathedral in Salzburg, where he remained for forty-three years. His 360 church compositions were considered by the elder Haydn to be superior to his own. In Salzburg, Michael was a friend of Leopold Mozart (who was his assistant) and a great influence on the young Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart, many of whose Masses show clear signs of having been inspired by those of Michael Haydn.
THE MASS OF SAINT GABRIEL
Although immensely popular in Haydn’s lifetime, the Mass of Saint Gabriel had languished in undeserved obscurity for two centuries. It has rarely been heard in the United States, and this is believed to be its New Orleans première. The Gloria and Credo exist in two versions: the first was written for Haydn’s first church position, at Großwardein, and is characterized by almost scandalous brevity, the phrases being overlapped by different singers. The later and more orthodox version (sung at St. Patrick’s) was written for Salzburg. Two trumpets (in honour of the archangel Gabriel) and tympani give this Mass a splendor entirely appropriate at Easter, while the grace of the melodies and the dramatic harmonies clearly mark it as a masterpiece.
Why does Louisiana have parishes? The story behind the state's unique map
Louisiana is the only state to divide itself into parishes instead of counties and is yet another way in which the state is distinctive.
The first official state map used the term parishes to denote local governmental units in 1816, four years after Louisiana was admitted to the Union.
The word “parish” acknowledged a church-based system that the state's French and Spanish founders — all Catholic men — had set up in colonial times.

The Kaskaskia Curse ~Illinois, United States.
Kaskaskia is a historically important village in Randolph County, Illinois, United States.
Legend says Kaskaskia is cursed, and whether or not you believe in curses, it certainly seemed like Kaskaskia was plagued with bad luck.
Many years ago, Kaskaskia Island was part of the Illinois mainland, but the peninsula was cursed. By 1881, it was completely cut off by the river and nearly was destroyed.
Today the church that was moved in the late 19th century is still in use, with bricks on the second floor showing some discoloration where floodwaters rose in 1993. (Mass is on Saturdays because no priest can get there on Sundays.) Louis XV’s old bell — cracked, just like Philadelphia’s — still hangs in a nearby shrine, metaphorically ringing out Kaskaskia’s three centuries of history and fortitude.In the 2010 census the population was 14..The city's peak population was about 7,000, before the capital was moved in 1819 to Vandalia. Although the introduction of steamboats on the Mississippi River stimulated the economies of river towns, in the 19th century, their use also had devastating environmental effects. Deforestation of the river banks followed steamboat crews' regular cutting of trees, which were used to feed the engine boiler fires as fuel to power the steamboats. River banks, through rapid, man-made erosion, became unstable, causing massive amounts of soil to collapse into the flowing water.
According to legend, a fur trader named Bernard lived in a large home with his daughter, Mari, who fell in love with a young Native American who worked for her father. When Bernard found out, he was enraged and let the employee go. The former employee left town, but promised to return for Maria. Maria and the man escaped and Bernard hunted them down. He had the paramour tied to a log and thrown in the muddy waters of the Mississippi River. Before he drowned, he cursed Bernard and Kaskaskia, said the altars of the churches would be destroyed and swore he and Maria would be reunited.
Within a year, the curse appeared to be coming true. Maria died and was reunited in eternity with her lover. The river changed course and turned Kaskaskia into an island. The church was moved twice so the river would not overtake it, and the altar was destroyed by a flood in 1973.
He also swore that the dead in Kaskaskia would rise from the grave. IT HAPPENED! Kaskaskia was engulfed in many major floods over the years, and the flood in 1881 completely cut the town off from the state of Illinois. The altar of the church was destroyed in 1973, and one of the big floods made the cemetery move and caused the dead to surface and vanish beneath the river.
Full story HERE
One islander, as those who live in Kaskaskia are called, said just this summer that her husband’s nephew found a skull and bones in the area of old Kaskaskia, located about three miles from where the town sits today. And just a few years ago they discovered headstones dated back to the 1700s and 1800s.
“Once in a while a grave will wash up and they will see skulls and bones,” Brown said. “They’ll be one wash out after a high water.”
From St. Louis to the confluence of the Ohio River, the Mississippi became wider and more shallow, resulting in more severe seasonal flooding. In the late 19th century, the town was cut off from the Illinois mainland and mostly destroyed by repeated flooding and a channel change by the Mississippi River. Much of the former property of Kaskaskia and other French colonial towns on the river has been lost. Following the Great Flood of 1844, residents of Kaskaskia relocated the town to the south. The original location of Kaskaskia became an island, surrounded by the Mississippi River. The flood of 1881 destroyed all remnants of the original town and the Mississippi shifted into the channel of the Kaskaskia River, passing east instead of west of the town.
Parts of the town were rebuilt in the new area. As the Mississippi continued to flow through its new bed, earth was deposited so that the village land became physically attached to the west bank of the river, which primarily lies within the boundaries of the state of Missouri. Now a bayou, the old channel is regularly flooded by the river. A small bridge carries traffic from the mainland over the bayou to Kaskaskia and its surrounding farmlands in the floodplain. A levee lines the river to the east. In 1893 the people of the town moved and rebuilt the Church of the Immaculate Conception at Kaskaskia. They also built a shrine in a similar style nearby to house the liberty bell.
When the clouds darken and the thunder and lightening begin, fellow Kaskaskians have a saying they use:”Let’s give the island back to the Indians.”

Catholic history of Mardi Gras, Fat Tuesday, Lent and Ash Wednesday
Visit for details.
The historical roots of Carnival and Mardi Gras lie in the Catholic calendar. It is the last hurrah before Lent begins on Ash Wednesday. That's why the enormous party in New Orleans, for example, ends abruptly at midnight on Tuesday, with battalions of street sweepers pushing the crowds out of the French Quarter towards home.
Mardi Gras literally means Fat Tuesday in French. The name comes from the tradition of slaughtering and feasting upon a fattened calf on the last day of Carnival. The day is also known as Shrove Tuesday (from shriven to confess), Pancake Tuesday and fetter Dienstag. The custom of making pancakes comes from the need to use up fat, eggs and dairy before the fasting and abstinence of Lent begins.
Carnival comes from the words carne vale, meaning farewell to meat.
The Catholic Mass is the source and summit of our Faith, but few are aware of what it all means. This video will help you see how the Mass Explained app team of designers used technology to explain the historical development and significance of the prayers, Catholic Mass readings and responses in the liturgy.
The Mass Explained iPad app is a multimedia journey through the Catholic Mass — more specifically, the Ordinary Form of the Roman Rite, the Mass with which most Catholics are familiar. It explores the roots of each section of the liturgy with its unique prayers and gestures.
Packed with scriptural references, quotes from the Church Fathers, the Catechism and excerpts from councils and encyclicals, the iPad app is scholarly yet totally approachable and thoroughly entertaining.
In addition to the hundreds of photographs, drawings, charts, mass music and graphs that make for a stunning user experience, The Mass Explained iPad app contains several interactive elements.

Beyonce Bought A Church! A Look Inside The Church & Details On The Purchase
on May 11 Beyonce purchased a 7,500 sq. ft church in New Orleans. The church -- which is more than 100 years old -- was listed at $850,000 but it's unclear exactly how much Beyonce paid for it.
According to NOLA.com, the church was bought by the Noble Jones Trust - which apparently is associated with Beyonce. The paperwork was signed by one of its trustees: who is known to be a close friend of the Knowles family.
The listing for the church describes it as:
a Garden District One of a Kind! The 100+ year old Church on the corner of Camp and Seventh is for sale. Zoned HU. RD1… affords many possibilities for redevelopment as a single, multi- family, remaining as a Church, possibility of a commercial usage or many other possibilities. This stone structure has a congregation area 45 X 45 with 18 foot ceilings, level hardwood floors, living area with 15 foot ceilings, over 7500 sq. ft. and some off street parking.
So, as you heard, the property can be used for residential or commercial use, and can still be used as a church if that's what Beyonce decides to do with it.
Beyonce's sister, Solange, lives very close to the church, so it's possible Solange may somehow be involved in whatever Beyonce decides to do with the church.
What do you think Beyonce will do with the church? Do you think she'll renovate it and actually use it for religious services? Or do you think she will use it as another residential property?
