Father Eddie Gros, SJ will be leading a group to visit Whitney Plantation in Edgard, LA on Saturday, March 5 (new date!). The visit will feature a tour of the plantation's museum, which offers a rare glimpse into plantation life from the point of view of the slaves who lived and worked there.
The group will leave from Holy Name of Jesus in the morning and return by late afternoon. We are working out transportation details now, but we will ask participants to cover the $25 cost of the plantation tickets.
Please email Father Eddie at
[email protected] if you are interested in attending.
