    Annunziata would like to recognize Father Glenn LeCompte for receiving the 2010 Vandebilt Alumni of the Year Award.
Fr. Glenn graduated in 1976 from Vandebilt. On May 24, 1986, Annunziata’s own Glenn LeCompte was ordained to the priesthood. He celebrated his first mass on the following morning at 11:00 am and Notre Dame Seminary’s rector, Gregory Aymond (now Archbishop Gregory Aymond) delivered the homily. Fr. Glenn had participated in many ministries at Annunziata before being ordained. In July of 1998, Fr. Glenn, who was teaching at Notre Dame Seminary, took residence at Annunziata. Two years later, in May of 2000, much to the disappointment of Annunziata parishioners, he departed for an assignment at Notre Dame. In late 2007, Fr. Glenn was selected for the positions of Diocesan Director of Worship and Diocesan Master of Ceremonies. He was recently appointed as Director of Lumen Christi Retreat Center. He was selected for the Alumni of the Year Award in 2010 by a designated committee for this award because he has distinguished himself in his career, his community service, and his example as a Catholic Christian. He remains very active at the school.
Fr. Glenn’s vocation has meant so much to the Diocese of Houma-Thibodaux, especially to us here at Annunziata who can proudly call him our own.
