School Days - Reaching Out

As the new school year approaches we hear about the different organizations that are doing drives for school supplies. Most of these drives focus on the student and not the educators who often pay for many of their classroom supplies out of their own pockets. With that in mind, St. Elizabeth's established a drive for classroom school supplies which will benefit all the students.

The Source Outreach

On the first of July crafters Janet Mandeville, Cynthia Wallace, Patty Larose, Flo Clowes and several others went to present The Source with ten 3 x 6’ sleeping mats for their clients, along with a meal of macaroni and cheese with ham, salad and rolls. Sonya Morrison , Executive Director of The Source, will be distributing them to some of the homeless attendees.

Pentecost Sunday - Are you Empowered?

Posted May 19th, 2013

By Fr. David G. Newhart
 

[Video link to Sunday's sermon posted on Youtube http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iXitFjFLjQw&feature=youtu.be ] Today we celebrate Pentecost and for the church is a significant day because it is the day often referred to as the birth of the church. But I would suggest to you that it is not the birth of the church but the coronation of the church. It is a crowning moment when God pours out His Holy Spirit upon it so all the world would know of His presence.
