Welcome to the Diocese of Lake Charles

From the desk of the Bishop:

I am pleased to announce the addition of a new Director of Fiscal Affairs for the Diocese of Lake Charles, Mr. Jacob Troutman, C.P.A., MAcc. He will assume this office effective January 1, 2022.

His duties will include the daily administration of all fiscal matters and personnel involved with the Diocesan Finance Office.  I wish to express my appreciation to the Diocesan Finance Council and the ad hoc Search Committee, chaired by Monsignor Daniel Torres, for their conscientious work advertising the position, interviewing the applicants, and making the final recommendation to me.  I will also announce the appointment of a Chief Financial Officer for the Diocese prior to Christmas.
