Good afternoon darlings!
Let's say goodbye to August and welcome Tuesday, September 1st.! Let's be optimistic and pray that September will slow down the spread of COVID 19, so we can move to Phase 3. It will bring a degree of Normalcy to our lives. Let's pray for those affected by Hurricane Laura, COVID 19, and those that succumbed to the virus. May their souls RIP🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏
September is a wonderful month. The weather is not as hot as it is in summer, and the air is just getting a little brisk. Summer is left behind as the anticipation of autumn is near.
As Oscar Wilde said," All at once, summer collapsed into fall"
I feel grateful and blessed to be alive and healthy and look forward to September 2020. 🥰😘

“Once again, New Orleans musicians are hard pressed to produce income because of the COVID pandemic and closure of music venues. Our church offers use of our audio-visual and electronic equipment, as well as our space, to help them bring in some income through their own online tip jar,” said Fr. Bill. Event sponsors are also sought to help every performer at least receive a baseline payment of $100 to $500 per gig, depending on the size of the music group. The program is made possible with the help of Jack Craft, an artist with Sweet Crude, and St. Anna’s Place staff.
