TEACH YOUR CHILDREN TO GIVE

By Debbie Chalik

The reading for this Sunday is interesting and a little bit unnerving! The Gospel is Luke 16:19-31, and it tells of Lazarus and the rich man.

The rich man (who in the story has no name), is dressed in beautiful clothes and has plenty to eat. Outside of his door is a man named Lazarus. Lazarus is poor and in need of food. The story tells us that Lazarus would be happy to eat the scraps that the rich man discarded. When the two men die, the rich man is in a place of torment, while in the distance, he sees Abraham with Lazarus at his side.

The message is that the rich man lived his life selfishly not caring about the needs of those around him.

As parents, our first and most important job is to direct children in the Catholic faith. Taking time to nurture a giving heart is something we as Catholic parents should strive to pass on to our children. This is a lesson that is best learned by doing.

Giving can come in the form of simply expressing appreciation, helping a neighbor who is ill, or giving a gift to a family in need at Christmas or during Lent.

There are abundant family activities available throughout our community and through Sacred Heart Church all year long! The acts of kindness don’t need to be limited to only the season of Advent and Christmas. The key is to make it a part of what you do as a family.

This reading is one of the most thought provoking for me. Every time I read it, I am reminded that I can do better.

Here's what's up:

Please let us know of if you would like us to pray for you. Call the office or Deacon Ed at 515-225-6414

In living your strength, we have thus far discussed what strength and talents mean. Now, we dive into Skills. Skills are basic abilities to move through the fundamental steps of a task. They can be acquired

through formal or informal training. Once you have acquired the skills necessary for a given activity, you have the ability to perform its steps at base-level ability. You may be asking yourself, why do we care about living our strengths? Every Mass we pray the prayer for Divine Renovation. We ask God to help us become Active Apostles on fire for Jesus Christ. Living our strengths allows us to use our God-given talents in the best possible way to help build the kingdom of God.

FINAL SACRED HEART SAX-N-BRASS CONCERT & TRIBUTE TO DIRECTOR JERRY KINNEY

Please join us on Sunday October 6, 2019 from 4:00 –

Kinney has been directing bands for over 60 years,

including the Sacred Heart Sax-n-Brass adult band for the

last 24 years. He is retiring, and the band is organizing a

reception to recognize and thank him for his many years of

service. The reception starts at 4:00 pm, with a brief

farewell concert by the Sax-n-Brass from 5:00 – 5:30 pm,

and then a brief program to follow. No gifts please but

cards with thank you and best wishes are welcome!

ADORATION

Each hour you spend with Jesus will deepen his divine peace in your heart. Spend some time with Jesus at Adoration. Our next opportunity for Adoration will be Tuesday, Oct. 1st. You are welcome to stop in anytime from 8:00 am to 7:00 pm. Please use the North Church Doors - the other doors will be locked. In the event of a funeral, Adoration will be suspended for the duration of the funeral and will resume after the funeral for the remainder of the day.

“Come now, let us engage ourselves with renewed love to serve the poor, and let us even seek out the poorest and

most abandoned of all.”

St. Vincent de Paul

Help Us Collect 1000 Pairs of Socks

Did you know Socks are among the most requested item of those in need? There are two main reasons socks are among the most valuable piece of clothing to people without permanent housing. For one, feet work overtime when there’s no cozy home (and laundry room) to return to each night. The other reason is that socks aren’t often donated or, when they are, the goods can’t be sanitized and put to use.

The Sacred Heart Conference is holding a Sock Drive to collect 1,000 pairs of new socks to place in Holiday Gift Baskets and to donate to the St. Vincent de Paul Thrift Stores in Des Moines.

We need socks for men, women and children – all sizes.

When: After Masses on October 5-6 and October 12-13

Drop Off Box: Parish Gathering space

God Bless you and thank you for helping us reach our goal.

Join us at our next meeting

Date: October 7

Time: 7:00 pm – 8:00 pm

Location: Sacred Heart Church - Northwest Conference Room

If you have any questions or need additional information please contact us at shwdmsvdp@gmail.com
