Third Sunday in Ordinary Time

January 23, 2022

Fr. Jim's Jots

Greetings!

Special thanks to George Strother, Barbara Vaughan, Larry Williford and Cathy Woodson who have volunteered for years to make our past Jazz Festivals a huge success.  It's understandable that after years of this major task, all have let me know they no longer wish to or are not able to volunteer for the Jazz Festival in 2022.  All are asking for younger parishioners to volunteer and keep things going if possible.  I am sure all the former team members of the past Jazz Festivals will be a resource and give past materials and answer questions.

That being said, we are looking for new volunteers to help with the Jazz Festival of 2022!  Areas where volunteers are needed include:  hiring bands, creating a schedule of events for the day, ordering food trucks, security, set-up, clean-up, advertising, tickets and tickets sales, sponsors, booth creation, ice-cream truck, city permit to close street, beer and wine license, etc.

Wow!! That's a lot of work!! But if we do not get volunteers to help with the 2022 Jazz Festival, we will NOT be able to host this event.  If you are at all interested, please contact Fr. Jim at jarsenault@richmonddiocese.org or the parish office and leave me a voice message at 804-329-4599, ext. 11.

+Blessings for the New Year+

Fr. Jim
