THANK YOU GRADY LLOYD!!
Grady was born in St. Agnes Parish, receiving four of the Sacraments in the old gambling hall turned into a church. He has lived in St. Agnes his entire life, except for four years of college plus three years in St. Charles civil parish. He married his wife Kathleen in the “new” church in 1960; moved back to St. Agnes in 1966. Grady started teaching CCD in 1967. He has taught continually since then, in both elementary and high school classes. He was coordinator of the programs from the mid-1970’s to 2008. He continues to teach through this school year.
Next Sunday at 11:00am Mass we will honor Mr. Grady Lloyd who is retiring as a CCD teacher with St. Agnes after over 50 years of service.
We appreciate and thank you Grady for all of your hard work, dedication and service to St. Agnes. God bless you!
