Louisiana Church Blesses An Entire Town

Used A Crop Duster To Spray Holy Water Over Cow Island

A Roman Catholic in a small Louisiana town blessed the entire town using a crop duster loaded with holy water.

USA Today reports that, according to a Facebook post from the Diocese of Lafayette, Fr. Matthew Barzare and parishioners of St. Anne Church in Cow Island enlisted the help of a cropduster pilot to bless their community. They loaded 100 gallons of holy water into the plane and the pilot sprayed the water onto the town and the nearby farms.

Parishioners also brought water from home to the airstrip to be blessed by Fr. Barzare. The blessing was the brainchild of L'Eryn Detraz, a missionary currently stationed in Ohio who is a native of Cow Island.

The event took place the Sunday before Christmas.
