News and Events: Helping out

Taylor Manor and the all the Sisters of St. Joseph the Worker want to say 'Thank You" to Mr. and Mrs. John Barkett.  They are Sister Elizabeth Ann's parents.  For many years Mr. and Mrs. Barkett have volunteered at Taylor Manor.  From helping out with the little things that help to make the residents more comfortable to negotiating buying equipment to baking delicious goodies, they have joyfully given of themselves.  They are retiring and moving to Florida.  May God continue to bless them both.  They will be missed.

At St. Joseph Academy, there are many volunteers that help out in many ways too.  If I would attempt to mention names, I know that I would forget someone. Pig Fest, Fish Fry, Tee Off for the Kids wouldn't be possible without the help of many friends.  Not to mention all the help they give day to day during a normal school day.

Christmas is almost here and while you are busy making sure all the gifts ahave been brought and the decorations are perfect, consider giving the best gift of all - a little bit of yourself.
