Episode 13: Fr. Andrew Jones & St. Jude Parish

Listen as a podcast.

Meet Fr. Jones. A Virginia native. A Convert. A Priest. And now pastor of historic St. Jude in Montgomery. We have looked at St. Jude’s history in past episodes. Now, along with their pastor, let’s take a look at where St. Jude is today and where they feel called to be moving forward.


Dig in Further:

“Talitha koum. Little Girl, get up and walk.” How might Jesus need to say this to you? To your parish? How does Jesus need to resuscitate, renew or resurrect the life of you and your parish?

What was the mission of your parish when it started? What is it now? How can you and your fellow parishioners clarify your mission as a parish and allow Christ to breath new life into you and those you serve?

How have the neighborhoods surrounding your parish changed since its founding? What new approaches might you and your parish have to employ to welcome those who now are your “neighbors” sharing our “Native Soil.” Recall a “parishioner” is technically anybody living within the parish boundaries of your parish.
