Fr. Jim's Jots - Twenty-fifth Sunday in Ordinary Time - 9.20.2020

Twenty-fifth Sunday in Ordinary Time


FR. JIM'S JOTS

I am blessed to have your kindness and support this last week while my Mother Pat was in St. Mary's hospital.  She is now in Rehab at Our Lady of Hope and please keep praying that she will be able to return to St. Mary's Woods in the near future.

Wow! ... a Zoom Jazz Festival; what a surprising success!  We raised $25,487.98!  Thanks to all who helped in any way.  Yet again, another example of the love, kindness and generosity of so many good people.  I am blessed to be your priest at Saint Elizabeth!!  Thanks!

We continue the work of the church through our Zoom Masses on Sunday at 10 a.m., Wednesday at 6 p.m. and Friday at 12 noon.  Please join us if your schedule permits.  We also offer an in-person Mass at 8:30 a.m. on Sundays and the Rosary several times throughout the week. Please check our website.

The work on the elevator continues;  it needs a new flex hose which is in the machine room.  This hose will bring our elevator up to Code Requirement A17.3.  The cost of labor and materials is $3,043. The work is being done by Otis Elevator.  The Kitchen in the hall has been painted and now we are working to complete the punch list items on the Community Life Committee's work request.  We hope to get a Double oven stove.  Thank you, Pat Cleary for helping.

Please continue to pray for members of our parish who are in nursing homes, rehab centers and home bound.  If you would like to get a phone call or know someone who would enjoy a phone call or visit, please call me at the parish office, 804-329-4599 and leave a message and we have volunteers who can call folks.

Blessings,

Fr. Jim
