St. Mary of False River is a Roman Catholic Church Parish located on the banks of False River in New Roads, Louisiana. The Parish is part of the Diocese of Baton Rouge and has a long history of serving the area.  We hope you will join us! 

Bishop Duca has released a letter to the faithful reinstating the obligation to attend Mass on Sundays and Holy Days beginning June 6, 2021. In addition, masks are no longer required to attend Mass or in the Adoration Chapel. It is still recommended, however, that masks still be worn by those who are more vulnerable to the virus. We encourage you to please read the bishop’s entire letter to find out more information. https://diobr.org/news/signs-of-hope-and-renewal?fbclid=IwAR0CGNsbL2zGI28i7d7VJh-YLWnHRuy6aa8euXCdG_jENvyAPU6V-OcRP_4
