FATHER JIM'S JOTS
Greetings!!
This Sunday, Msgr. Walter Barrett is here to celebrate Sunday Masses while I am away. Deacon Chris Barrett will be leading Communion Services on Wednesday, August 21st and Friday, August 23rd at 12 p.m. in place of weekday Mass. I will return on Saturday, August 24th in time for the Masses on the 25th.
Last week, I shared our net total of funds raised from the Jazz Festival. This week we had a few more donations come in and our total now has been raised to $33, 221.38! Wow! Thank you to all for your generous support both monetarily and through service to make our Jazz Festival happen!
Last week we completed our annual fiscal year census reports that provide us with statistics on how our church is growing. You can see the chart below how our church has grown in just the past year. If you are not registered as a member of the Parish, but would like to do so, please get in contact with Eva (evabalkarli@stelizcc.org) in the Parish Office to get started. Having all the people who are regularly involved in the church registered as a member helps us provide more accurate information for our annual reports.
