Other Notes

(1) FESTIVAL PREP SIGN-UP: At our Focus Group meeting earlier this year, one topic that was mentioned by many people was using SignUp Genius to help recruit volunteers for our Mediterranean Festival prep dates. We believe this helps because it gives people a timeline and some detail about what they will be doing when they volunteer. To that end, we have created a SignUp Genius which now includes ALL work days up until the week of the festival. You can sign up to help using this link > Thank you for your help in making our festival a success!

(2) FELLOWSHIP GROUPS: Everyone who has an e-mail account on my list of participants should have received an e-mail about their January assignment with the other members of your group included. If you have not received an e-mail, but would like to be included in the Fellowship Groups, please contact me ASAP so I can get you added to my list and to a group for January.

(3) HOUSE BLESSINGS: If you would like a house blessing this year, please contact me via e-mail (preferred) or sign up on our sign-up sheet available in the foyer.

(4) TEACH ME THY STATUTES PODCAST: If you would like to listen to this week’s Teach Me Thy Statutes podcast (with Fr Aaron & Jason Ewertt), you can find it here >

(5) PASTORAL VISITS: If you would like a pastoral visit for any reason, or if you know of a family member/parishioner who needs a visit, please feel free to contact me via cell phone at 204-6725.

Yours in Christ,

Fr Aaron
