Fr. Jim's Jots ~ Second Sunday in Ordinary Time - The Marriage Feast at Cana

Fr. Jim's Jots

Greetings!

Today we celebrate the Second Sunday in Ordinary Time!  Throughout our life we are called to embrace Christ and His Church.

One of the ways to do this is to think about helping our parish even after our death; through estate planning and legacy giving.  We are hosting an Estate & Legacy Planning Seminar on January 27th at 10:30 a.m. in the parish hall.  All are invited.  This informative, free seminar is offered to parishioners at St. Elizabeth.  It is sponsored by the Catholic Diocese of Richmond.  Topics include: wills and trust, power of attorney, types of legacy giving, beneficiaries, estate pre-planning and attorneys.  Several other parishes in our diocese have also begun this program and has already proven successful to help secure the future of our parish.  Much like planning for your own individual family, we are called to be wise stewards and plan for the future of our parish family.  Please attend the seminar, January 27th at 10:30 a.m. in the parish hall.

Blessings,

Fr. Jim
