Fr. Jim's Jots - Feast of the Body and Blood of Christ - June 23. 2019

Fr. Jim's Jots

Greetings!

As a church, we are blessed to utilize and to celebrate many ministries and increase ministries here at St. Elizabeth Church.  As a result, we have discovered a need to improve our facilities on an on-going basis.  This year we applied for a Home Mission Grant from the Catholic Diocese of Richmond and $10,000 was granted to increase our electrical capacity and to install air conditioning in the parish hall/basement of the church!

It became evident that not only was this needed, but when wall inspections took place, deficiencies in the church's electrical equipment were found that needed repair to avoid damage or perhaps, even a fire.

As a result, we are undertaking extensive actions to update and avoid possible dangerous situations.  We are installing new air conditioning, electrical services and adequate and increased power for all of our functions and activities.  A large portion of this cost will be provided through the diocesan grant. 

Thank you for your ongoing generosity, support and prayers for our ever-growing parish.

Blessings,

Fr. Jim Arsenault
