Prayer of Blessing for Our Students and Our Teachers As we prepare to begin a new academic year, let us pray for all students and teachers, that this year may be filled

with many opportunities to grow in wisdom, knowledge, and understanding. Let us encourage our students, especially

those who need a little extra time, attention, and patience from us. Let us pray for all new teachers and all those who

support our educational efforts, especially here at Sacred Heart. Please consider offering the following prayer while

here at Church or after you have arrived home; you may wish to pray it more than once and/or share it with a special

student or teacher in your life!

Lord our God, in your wisdom and love you surround us with the mysteries of the universe. In times long past

you sent us your prophets to teach your laws and to bear witness to your undying love. You sent us your Son to teach us

by word and example that true wisdom comes from you alone. Send your Spirit upon our students and teachers and fill

them with your wisdom and blessings. Grant that during this academic year they may devote themselves to their studies

and share what they have learned from others. Let our students enjoy their learning and take delight in new discoveries.

Help them to persevere in their studies and give them the desire to learn all things well. Bless our teachers, Lord. Let

them strive to share their knowledge with gentle patience and endeavor always to bring the truth to eager minds. Grant

that students and teachers alike may follow Jesus Christ, the way, the truth and the life, for ever and ever. Amen.

RCIA Are you (or is someone you know) thinking about

becoming a Catholic or thinking about completing

Christian initiation in the Catholic community?

The Catholic Church welcomes inquiries and provides

a process of spiritual discernment for adults who are

making decisions about the Gospel Life and full

membership in the Church. This process, known as

RCIA (The Rite of Christian Initiation of Adults), is

the Church’s way of preparing adults to receive the

sacraments of Baptism, Confirmation and First

Eucharist.

Please call or email Fr. John (914-963-4205;

[email protected]) if you (or anyone

you know) would like more information or would like

to begin the RCIA process. RCIA sessions at Sacred

Heart will begin in September.

From the Pastor’s Desk

Twenty-Second Sunday in Ordinary Time: Live What You Profess How many times have we heard a variation on the expression, “Talk the talk; walk the walk”? We sometimes

hear it to describe a person who says one thing but does another. We sometimes use it to describe a person who does

exactly what they claim to do.

Jesus is a person who talked the talk and walked the walk! He instructed his disciples to wash one another’s feet

– after he had washed theirs! He told them they must forgive one another as he asked the Father’s forgiveness of his

executioners as he awaited his death on the cross.

Our scriptures today invite us to reflect on humility, the quality of recognizing our own skills, talents, abilities as

well as our limits, our defects, our faults, our lowliness – while at the same time recognizing and celebrating the

strengths, talents, abilities and successes of all our brothers and sisters.

Consider the wonderful example of humility that we have in our Holy Father, Pope Francis. So many of us have

been rightly inspired and attracted by what we have seen and heard of him in the news. Recall he paid his own hotel bill

after he was elected Pope and he chose to ride on a bus with his fellow cardinals rather than with a private chauffeur. He

does not live in a palace and he has made great strides in reminding us priests that we don’t either! We’ve seen the

photos of him washing the feet of inmates in jail, of inviting the poor to eat with him. He even made a sandwich to feed

his Swiss Guard and has installed bathrooms and showers for the homeless. In other words, one might say “He gets it!”

- the message of Jesus that is. As it was then, so it is now – the message of Jesus is counter-cultural, it calls us to be

different, calls us to transform the world, calls us to recognize the many gifts and blessings we have received from God

and calls us to share them freely, without cost, especially with the poor.

Frankly, the humility of Jesus and the humility of his Vicar on earth, Pope Francis, are both inspiring and

challenging. Especially in our country today, perhaps we see greater evidence of false or inflated pride than we do an

honest, humble estimation of one’s abilities, talents and successes. We can be quick to criticize the abilities, talents and

achievements of others or minimize their hard work and their success. Jesus never did that; our Holy Father Pope

Francis never did that…do we?

As we continue enjoying the last few weeks of summer, perhaps we can take a moment and reflect on the ways

in which we live our faith. Do we give evidence that we are talking the talk as a disciple of Jesus and walking the walk,

as we imitate his humility? Are there areas in our lives where we might demonstrate greater humility? Are there people

in our life whose gifts, talents, abilities and successes we have not complimented, strengthened or encouraged? Have we

shown others the love and mercy that we ourselves have sought and received from God? Do we have the humility to

identify and “own” our weaknesses as well as ask God’s help to overcome them?

Perhaps this week we might do something nice for someone else who has no means to repay us…And if

someone should perform some random act of kindness toward us, let’s be sure to thank them and pray for them!

We NEED Your Assistance! We are IN NEED of and looking for COMMITTED PARISH VOLUNTEERS to assist us in the following

liturgical ministries: Special Ministers of the Eucharist, Lectors, Ushers, Altar Servers and Choir Members. If you’re

interested and able or if you would like more information, please be sure to come to our Ministry Fair the weekend of

family calendars. More information about each event will be available as the dates approach us. We look forward to

seeing you at all of these events – and more! God bless you for your support of our parish life.
