 ST. ELIZABETH CATHOLIC CHURCH

Nineteenth Sunday in Ordinary Time

August 9, 2026

FATHER JIM'S JOTS

Greetings,

As the summer starts to come to a close, I'd like to ask the congregation to keep all those in our parish who are about to start back at school in the following weeks, in their prayers.  We pray for the teachers, that they are guided by God so they may have patience, strength and wisdom as they teach their students and continue to support and care for the minds of our youth,  We also pray for the students, that they may find focus, wisdom and peace as they continue on in their journey for knowledge.

We'd also like to give special mention to those who will be attending our local Catholic Schools:
