Our Lady of the Gulf Parish after the interior was restored for the second time.

The exterior of Our Lady of the Gulf's church was virtually untouched by Hurricane Katrina even though it sits quite near the water.

After St. Clare was destroyed by the hurricane, parishioners began gathering in the donated tent "church".
