We are interested in starting up the Physical Bulletin in the next few months. Right now we print a very limited bulletin for those without emails pulling information from this newsletter. We would love someone with a little experience in publisher/word to help take the newsletter information and format it (clipart, images, etc.) on Wednesday afternoons. This would mostly be about adding graphics, clip art, and formatting a bulletin to be a little more aesthetically pleasing. This would generally take less than an hour.

Where do I fit in here? If you are asking yourself this question? Are you looking to find where you can fit into ministry here at St. Jerome?

Don’t see a ministry you are interested in? Please contact the parish office at 757-877-5021 and share your interests and ideas for any ministries.
Greeters:Isn’t it nice when someone welcomes you to church? Greeters present a welcoming hand, warm heart, and a friendly face to all parishioners and visitors who enter the doors of St. Jerome. Being a greeter is a great way to help others feel the love of Christ as they come to worship Him. We need greeters at all Masses. If you would like to meet others within the parish and share God’s love with them, become a greeter! Please contact the parish office at 757-877-5021 for more information

Jesus Calms Our Waters In our lives, there are moments, when only Jesus can stop our torments. Those daily struggles that burden the soul, He comes to us and makes us whole. Oh Jesus, calm the winds of fear we hide. Smooth the waves of greed and pride.Calm our storms of anger and hate. Calm the storms that dim our sight, that block the path to your wonderful light. Calm the storms that lead us to sin. Give us courage, peace and love within. Let us be a witness to those we meet, the rich, the poor, the stangers on the street. Let us serve them in this great land, for they too may have storms at hand. Until our dying day, until we finally rest, help us rise each day and do our very best. Before the rains wash our strength away. Calm our storms Lord, each and every day. Paul A. Jones |
