 Fifth Sunday of Easter

May 2 2021

Fr. Jim's Jots

After conversations with past leadership of the Jazz & Food Festival, Parish Council and Finance Council, we have decided NOT to host the 2021 Jazz & Food Festival due to the uncertainty of the COVID-19 Virus.  This was a difficult decision but I believe the correct decision.  I hope you understand.  The Jazz & Food Festival has been a source of community pride for the parish of Saint Elizabeth Catholic Church and the Richmond neighborhood and Richmond community.

This will have an impact on our parish budget but you have been very generous during this difficult time.  Thank you for your kind support and prayers.  We will have an online fundraiser (a "Popcorn Sales Fundraiser"), more details at a later date.

It is my hope to have a safe and successful Jazz & Food Festival in 2022.  If you have any thoughts or would like to help with the 2022 Jazz & Food Festival, please contact me at our parish office, 804-329-4599.

This Sunday we remember all who have died of the COVID-19 Virus, those who have gotten the Virus and are still recovering and all first responders.  Please get vaccinated.  It's safe and open to all.

Blessings,

Fr. Jim
