 Fifth Sunday in Ordinary Time

February 6, 2022

Black History Month 2022

Fr. Jim's Jots

Greetings All!

February is BLACK HISTORY MONTH!! We have an opportunity to learn, reflect and challenge ourselves during this special month.  In our community this month we will welcome four women from our parish to share their history.  They are Sister Cora Marie Billings, Cathy Woodson, Sister Tiberh and Vivian Sullivan.  Everyone has a life story, but at St. Elizabeth I am always humbled and amazed at your life stories and proud to be the priest of this remarkable parish.  Please pray for the 4 Catholic women who are sharing their story and thank them for their courage to witness before their home parish.

In the back of church, we are pleased to hand out booklets:  "An Hour with" Julia Greeley, Mother Mary Lange, Thea Bowman, Mother Henrietta Delille, Augustus Tolton and Pierre Toussaint.  May these booklets help us learn and pray for those who are on the road to Sainthood.  May we learn, reflect and pray for their Sanctification.

+ Blessings for the New Year +

Fr. Jim
