Sacred Heart Catholic Church Fourth Sunday in Ordinary Time–January 28, 2018

Reflection from the Pastor:

This week we celebrate the annual Catholic Schools Week. It is a time to recall the

great blessings that Catholic schools offer not only to parents, but to the entire parish

community. Catholic schools and weekly religious education

in the Parish School of Religion (PSR) are part of the parish’s

mission to evangelize and catechize both young and old.

Each of us has the joy and an obligation to contribute to the

mission of evangelization, because the love of Christ cannot

be kept to oneself; love must be shared.

Here at Sacred Heart and throughout the diocese of Wichita, tuition-free Catholic

education is made available to all parishioners who practice a stewardship way of

life by contributing a sacrificial and proportionate tithe of their time, talent and

treasure. The above-average weekly Mass attendance in our parishes compared with

other dioceses as well as the large numbers of vocations to the priesthood point to

the success of Catholic education not only with the young, but with all ages in the

parish. Thank you for your support of Catholic education here at Sacred Heart!

Meditación del Párroco: Esta semana celebramos “Catholic Schools Week”, una conmemoración anual de las escuelas católicas en los Estados

Unidos. Es un momento para recordar las grandes bendiciones que las escuelas católicas ofrecen, no solo a los padres, sino a

toda la comunidad parroquial. Las escuelas católicas y la educación religiosa en la Parish School of Religion

(PSR/Catecismo) forman parte de la misión de la parroquia de evangelizar y catequizar tanto a jóvenes como a mayores.

Cada uno de nosotros tiene la alegría y la obligación de contribuir a la misión de la evangelización, porque el amor de Cristo

no puede guardarse para uno mismo; el amor debe ser compartido.

Aquí en Sacred Heart y en toda la diócesis de Wichita, la educación católica gratuita se pone a disposición de todos los

feligreses que practican un estilo de vida de mayordomía al contribuir con un diezmo sacrificable y proporcionado de su

tiempo, talento y tesoro. La asistencia a la Misa dominical es superior en nuestras parroquias en comparación con otras

diócesis, así como el gran número de vocaciones al sacerdocio, apuntan al éxito de la educación católica no solo con los

jóvenes, sino con todas las edades en la parroquia. ¡Gracias por vuestro apoyo a la educación católica aquí en el Sagrado

Corazón!
