Sunshine

Members of the Sunshine Committee telephone new registrants to St. Elizabeth Seton Parish. Their purpose is to extend an informal welcome in a one-on-one situation, to answer any questions new parishioners might have and offer both information and friendship in an effort to make newcomers feel truly welcome. In addition, members of the Sunshine Committee are making dinners for new mothers and sick parishioners, driving to medical appointments or just making a friendly call or visit to anyone in need.

Parish Nurse Corner

May is National Blood Pressure Month. High blood pressure affects one in three Americans — and it’s the third leading cause of death in the U.S. This May, celebrate National Blood Pressure Month by raising your awareness with the power of information. Then, use that knowledge to fight unseen, potential risks.

Guidelines for blood pressure have changed in recent years. Around 120 over 80 is now considered the range for normal blood pressure. Anything higher than that means you should try to lower it through some simple lifestyle changes like diet and exercise.

Know your numbers and have them checked regularly. “For wisdom will enter your heart, and knowledge will fill you with joy.” Proverbs 2:10.

Our Parish Nurses offer regular monitoring. Utilize them. If your numbers start inching up, visit your doctor.
