Welcome to Saint Elizabeth Ann Seton Parish
From Fr. Ed Holland, Pastor
Elizabeth was the first native-born American citizen to be canonized a saint and was a convert to the Catholic faith.
What led her to the Church? She writes that it was first the welcome that she received from Catholics during the difficult
time of her husband’s illness and death. She was welcomed and loved by people who truly lived what their faith taught about welcoming the stranger and caring for those in need. This welcome led her more deeply into her own Christian faith and eventually helped her discover the joys and treasures of faith in the Catholic Church. Elizabeth put into practice that same welcome that she experienced and would live the rest of her life in service to others. We pray for her intercession that we, too, might live that same spirit of welcome and service. So thank you for visiting us here at
Saint Elizabeth Ann Seton Parish in Columbia Station, Ohio. Please know that you are always welcome here!
From the Desk of Father Ed ...
This weekend's Feast of the Baptism of the Lord brings the Christmas season to a close. Historically, it was the "original" Christmas celebration before losing popular ground to the Epiphany and later to the Nativity. As with the other two celebrations, we again have a heavenly message from above declaring who Jesus is. Today we hear a voice announcing that He is God's beloved Son. At our own baptism, we each became a beloved child of God even if we didn't see the heavens open or hear a voice proclaiming this truth. As we enter into Ordinary Time, may we live out our identity as God's sons and daughters, that by doing so, we may attract others who will be our brothers and sisters in Christ. Our annual Pasta Dinner fundraiser is just three weeks away. Come join us for a tasty meal on Sunday, February 2 from 12 noon to 3 p.m. Since that is Groundhog's Day, (like the movie), you might end up eating with us over and over again, or you can always take a meal to go. If you would like to help with the event, there will be a sign up sheet in the lobby.
Greetings from Deacon Bob Sabol!
God gives us so many wonderful things. The joy and the challenge that each day brings.
The song of the meadowlark, the kiss of the sun, the rich satisfaction of a job well done. The beauty of nature, the wisdom of years, the blessings of friendship that brighten and cheers. The warmth of remembrance, the comfort of prayers, and the dearest of blessings His own loving care.
We celebrate these gifts and more every day at St. Elizabeth Ann Seton Parish.
Join us when you are in the neighborhood. Tell them the Deacon sent you!
