Welcome to Sacred Heart Church
6th Sunday in Ordinary Time
February 17, 2019
Anointing of the Sick will be after the 8:15 Mass, Saturday, February 23. According to the Constitution of the liturgy from the Second Vatican Council, “Anointing of the sick is not a sacrament for those only who are at the point of death. Hence, as soon as any one of the faithful begins to be in danger of death from sickness or old age, the fitting time for that person to receive this sacrament has certainly already arrived.” If the sick person is unable to come to Mass, they can call the rectory to be put on the list for the twice-yearly anointing for the homebound.
Thank you to all who attended our pancake feed last week and special thanks the person who donated the sausage and to those who worked to make it possible. A good time was had by all and we will be adding $1,627.06 to our building fund.
Dear Parishioners, Sacred Heart Catholic School has recently learned that a do-nor who gives a significant amount of money to Sacred Heart ($150,000 per year) will no longer provide financial support to our school. This will create an additional budget shortfall of $150,000 beginning with the 2019-2020 school year and each year moving forward. This is a significant funding challenge. Due to this lack of funding, the future of Sacred Heart School is uncer-tain. We will keep you informed of further developments. If you have any suggestions or comments, please contact Fr. Leo Kosch via email: [email protected]. Please continue to pray for God’s blessings on our students, families, teachers and staff. Thank you for your prayers!
Prayer for Catholic Schools O Christ, Our Teacher, you invite Your faithful people to make disciples in Your name and to announce good news to the poor. We thank You for the gift of Catholic Schools, where The message of Your life, death, and resurrection is proclaimed, Christian community is experienced, Service to our brothers and sisters is modeled, And worship of You is cultivated. Increase our zeal for ensuring that all children and families can benefit from a high quality Catholic education, and that Catholic schools grow in their ability to nurture the soul of our nation. We ask this through the intercession of Our Lady, Mother of Catholic Schools. Amen.
Church Cleaning: Thanks to all who helped with cleaning last week. For next Saturday, February 23, at 8:45 am, we ask for the help of at least one member from each of the following households: Bryan Dahlberg, Jesse Damm, Loan Dang, Jen-nifer Davis, Gregory Dank, Rich-ard Degenhardt, Fred Dennis, Tom Dierks, Phuong Dinh, Larry Dodge and Joe Duggan.
