St. Elizabeth's Epiphany Open House (Part 1) ~ by Ethel Cooley

Epiphany Sunday, January 6, 2013 was an especially fun day.  With the help of many friends of St. Elizabeth and Fr. Jim Arsenault, the St. Elizabeth Rectory had been transformed!  It was unrecognizable!

From 2 p.m. til 5 p.m., the doors of the Rectory were open to parishioners and invited friendly, hospitable guests.  The heavenly hors d'oeuvres were delicious!  Music and laughter could be heard throughout the beautiful space.

Some of the guests who chose to stop by were:  Wade Emmit, III, David, Veronica and Katie Lowenhagen, Cheryl Dulog and Marc Dulog, Rich Krafic, Rick Murphy, Annie and Sissy McEntee and Marilyn Lewis!

A special thank you to the St. Elizabeth Kitchen Committee for the preparations and their untiring service.  Gov. Timothy Kaine, now Senator Timothy Kaine, was able to stop by in spite of a very busy schedule!  He was kind enough to gift many of our parishioners and guests with invitations to the Inauguration of the President and Vice President of the United States of America!

On Monday, January 21, 2013 and the Martin Luther King, Jr. Holiday, many of us were able to witness a historic and blessed day!
