St. Augustine Parish in East St. Louis, IL, recently celebrated their annual revival. This year's revival preacher was Fr. Maurice Nutt, C.Ss.R.
Father Nutt is currently a member of the Redemptorist Parish Mission Preaching Team based in Chicago, IL. Additionally he is a member of the faculty of the Institute for Black Catholic Studies at Xavier University of Louisiana, New Orleans, where he teaches Preaching. He has written three books:
Thea Bowman: In My Own Words,
Advent and Christmas Wisdom from St. Alphonsus Liguori, and
Lent and Easter Wisdom from St. Alphonsus Liguori. Father Nutt is also a contributor to the
African American Catholic Youth Bible, a collaborative project between the National Black Catholic Congress and St. Mary’s Press. He has also published many articles about preaching, evangelization and stewardship.
For the closing evening of the revival, the choir from St. Alphonsus Parish (aka, the Rock) in St. Louis helped provide the music. The youth choir from St. Augustine also did a wonderful job as did the Praise Dancers. Here are some photos:
