SOUTH OAKLAND

SHELTER

PROGRAM (SOS)

OUR WEEK IS COMING!

SEPTEMBER 10 – 17, 2017 Our annual South Oakland Shelter Week

(SOS) is coming to our parish again. Sacred

heart parish will offer a shelter for up to 30

homeless men, women and children.

You have been so very generous in past

years and we are counting on that wonderful

generosity again. The sign up-sheets will

be in the Gathering Space until Sunday,

September 3. Alongside of the sign-up

sheets there will be information describing

each task you might consider taking on.

If you are unable to help this year in a

physical manner, we ask that you consider

making a financial donation to help offset the

expenses incurred during Shelter Week. A

donation box will be on the table with the

sign up sheets. Your monetary generosity

has been such a blessing in past years. In the

eventuality that we collect more than we

need, rest assured that your donations will

still go to the SOS Program as it is a

revolving shelter for the homeless

throughout Oakland County.

Please don’t forget to keep this significant

project in your prayers. We can promise

that you won’t be disappointed when you get

involved in this program. Please volunteer to

help and mark your calendars now for

September 10 through 17! This would be

an excellent way to “Unleash the Gospel! It

is truly putting our faith into action!

TENDERHEARTS WOMEN

SAVE THE DATE!

Calling all women of

Sacred Heart!

Tenderhearts Women’s Bible Study

will be gathering for 8 weeks, beginning September

27, to host Queen of Heaven: Mary’s Battle for You.

Never before has the story of Our Lady been told

like this. It tells not only of her life through

Scripture, but of the battle between the Angel who

said No, and the woman who said Yes as she

intervenes at pivotal periods in history to draw us

back to her Son, including her most well-known

apparitions. This is especially fitting as we

celebrate the 100th Anniversary of her appearance

to three children at Fatima, Portugal this October.

Beautifully filmed and thoughtfully taught, with

deep spiritual lessons for us, you won’t want to miss

this. So mark it down now, and watch for more

information in coming weeks.

Catholic Choir is beginning

its 3rd exciting season. The choir

is hosting a “guest night” on

Legion Hall in Swartz Creek,
