Prayer for Vocations

Compassionate Heart of Jesus, graciously listen to

our prayers. Give us generous hearts to respond to

your call in our lives. Lift up courageous men and

women willing to follow after your heart as priests,

sisters, brothers, and deacons. Help parents and

teachers to share the faith and to encourage young

people to explore religious vocations. Guide all

people, Lord, in your ways of compassion, truth,

and peace, that we may find happiness in fulfilling

our vocation. Amen.

Saints of the Week

January 21—Saint Agnes

Agnes of Rome is a virgin martyr, venerated as a

saint in the Roman Catholic Church, Eastern Or-

thodox Church, the Anglican Communion, and

Lutheranism. She is one of seven women who,

along with the Blessed Virgin, are commemorated

by name in the Canon of the Mass. Agnes is de-

picted in art with a lamb, evoking her name which

is based on the Latin word for "lamb", agnus. She is also

shown with a martyr's palm. She is the patron saint of chastity

and virgins, as well as gardeners.

January 24—Saint Francis de Sales,

Bishop

Francis de Sales CO OM OFM Cap.

was a Bishop of Geneva and is hon-

ored as a saint in the Catholic Church.

He became noted for his deep faith and

his gentle approach to the religious

divisions in his land resulting from the

Protestant Reformation. He is known

also for his writings on the topic of

spiritual direction and spiritual forma-

tion, particularly the Introduction to

the Devout Life and the Treatise on the Love of God.

Sacred Heart Outreach to Needy

Members of the Society of St.Vincent de Paul (or

"Vincentians" ) are men and women of all ages, who

strive to grow spiritually by offering person-to-

person service to individuals in need. It is this per-

sonalized involvement that makes the work of the

Society unique.

Have you considered answering the call to "help the

poor find forgiveness and healing in their life" by

joining the Society of St. Vincent de Paul?

Learn more about the St. Vincent de Paul Sacred

Heart Conference by emailing us

at: [email protected] or calling us at

Bible Study Beginning Wednesday, October 10th at 6:30p.m. and continuing every other Wednesday evening until the

rishioners. Bible Study will be held in the Church Hall. We will alternate weeks between the Light of the

Catholicism: The New Evangelization

On Wednesday, September 5th, at 6:30 p.m.., and for the next few weeks, we will continue viewing and

discussing Fr. Robert Barron’s DVD series on “The New Evangelization.” This series will continue for the

next month, possibly longer. The New Evangelization explores the Church’s mission within the chal-

lenges of contemporary culture. Hosted by Bishop Robert Barron, the documentary focuses on the cul-

tural obstacles the Church faces today, such as the emergence of “the new atheism” and relativistic atti-

Praying to Our Mother for others

Perpetual Candles at Sacred Heart

As May is the month of Our Lady, we are reminded that our greatest intercessor is Our Lady.

We are blessed to have three sacred spaces with candles at which we can light a candle for our

prayers and special intentions.

These candles can be used for weekly visits, as many of you already do. There is also the pos-

sibility to reserve a candle for a month(s) or a year. Some of the intentions for which a num-

ber of parishioners have reserved candles:

Deceased or living family

Condolence for friends or family

Anniversary of Marriage

Birthday Automatically with the condolences, we send a letter to notify the grieving family of the candle

lit in our church for their loved one. We can also send a letter when requested for the others.

Visit one of our candle devotional spaces to light a candle. Fill out the form below to re-

serve a candle for a month or year.

Prayer to Saint Michael:

Saint Michael, the Archangel, defend us in battle, be

our defense against the wickedness and snares of the

devil. May God rebuke him, we humbly pray; and do

thou, O Prince of the heavenly host, by the power of

God, thrust into Hell Satan and the other evil spirits

who prowl about the world for the ruin of souls.

Amen.

Preghiera a San Michele:

San Michele Arcangelo, difendici nella battaglia; sii tu nostro sostegno contro la perfidia e le insidie del diavolo; che Dio eserciti il suo dominio su di lui, te ne preghiamo supplichevoli; e tu, o Principe della milizia celeste, con la potenza divina, ricaccia nell'inferno satana e gli altri spiriti maligni i quali errano nel mondo per perdere le anime. AMEN.

Values that Last a Lifetime!

Bulletin Column for Ordinary Time

Here we are back in Ordinary time again. Time is something which is precious to most people; especially to Americans.

We often hear the expression, “Time is money.” This means, that for us, time is a valuable commodity. We don’t like to waste

time. What we do with our time is very important to us and reflects how we would like other people to think about us.

When we think of something as being ordinary, we think of it as being “common,” “dull,” or without vitality. Most peo-

ple shy away from the ordinary because it doesn’t spark our imagination or feed our curiosity. We may think of something which

is ordinary as being mediocre or average.

Such is not the case with Ordinary Time in the liturgical life of the Church. In fact, the term Ordinary Time may be

somewhat of a misnomer. The liturgical season we call Ordinary Time is comprised of 33-34 weeks, and there is nothing ordinary

about this time.

Unlike the other liturgical seasons such as Advent, Christmas, Lent, Easter, which focus on a specific mystery of Christ;

the weeks of Ordinary Time, especially Sundays, are devoted to the mystery of Christ in all its fullness. Why, especially on Sun-

days? Because we are reminded “…that in this first day of the week the Lord of Life was raised up and creation came at last to

completion…” (taken from St. Andrew Bible Missal, Brooklyn, N.Y., 1982).

This celebration of the fullness of the mystery of Christ, which is also a celebration of our hope in the fullness of eternal

life with our Triune God, is anything but ordinary. On the contrary, it is quite extraordinary.

Ordinary Time begins on January 10 and continues through February 28, the day before Ash Wednesday, the beginning

of Lent. It will resume when the Easter season ends on June 5, the day following Pentecost and continues until the following Ad-

vent.

So, don’t be bored by Ordinary Time. You are celebrating the fullness of the mystery of Christ and the hope of eternal

life with the Father, Son, and Holy Spirit.

God bless you all,

Fr. Guy
