The Parish Ministry Charters - Explained
In January, Fr. Ramon finalized and signed off on two Parish Charters that establish the foundation for how Ministries and Committees of St. Elizabeth Parish will operate. The first two charters are linked below, along with a series of Questions & Answers as to why we now have these Charters:

Fall Bible Study
Join us as we study the Book of Romans! Classes are Tuesday evenings at 7 pm beginning October 8, or Wednesday mornings at 9:15 am beginning October 9. The cost of workbooks is $30. Watch the bulletin for registration forms, or call the parish office.
From Ascension Press: "Paul's letter to the Romans has been at the center of reflection, conversion, and controversy from the very beginning. Romans: The Gospel of Salvation provides an authentically Catholic, Comprehensive, and simple way to understand the overarching theme of Romans - salvation.
Romans: The Gospel of Salvation explores the ways in which Jesus is the fulfillment of Israel's prophecies, which leads to the universal, "Catholic" family of God.
In the 8-session program, theology professor Dr. Andrew Swafford and Jeff Cavins examine Paul's letter to the Romans. Dr. Swafford and Cavins provide historical context and highlight the connections to Jesus and Christianity Paul makes with the Old Testament."

RCIA
Are you seeking clarity in your exploration of spirituality in the modern world? Are you in a quest to find meaning in service to the community?
The Catholic Community of St. Elizabeth welcomes you as you seek to enrich your spirituality and live out a life of service to the community through the lens of Catholicism. Our community shares and celebrates this journey with you, through a process called "The Rite of Christian Initiation of Adults" (RCIA). We offer a series of sessions held on Tuesday evenings beginning on September 17, 2019. You are invited to join us at Mass anytime!
Our belief is that you will enjoy a deeper relationship with God as you also become acquainted with members of St. Elizabeth and the Church throughout the world, entering into relationship with Jesus Christ and His community of God's people in service to others.
