Saints of the Week

November 13—Saint Frances Xavier Cabrini

Frances Xavier Cabrini MSC, also called

Mother Cabrini, was an Italian-American

religious sister, who founded the Mission-

ary Sisters of the Sacred Heart of Jesus, a

Catholic religious institute that was a major

support to the Italian immigrants to the

United States. She was the first naturalized

citizen of the United States to be canonized

by the Roman Catholic Church, on July 7,

1946.

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?

Heart Conference by emailing us

November 15—Saint Albert the Great

Albertus Magnus, O.P., also known as

Saint Albert the Great and Albert of Co-

logne, was a German Catholic Dominican

friar and bishop. Later canonised as a

Catholic saint, he was known during his

lifetime as Doctor universalis and Doctor

expertus and, late in his life, the sobriquet

Magnus was appended to his name.

Scholars such as James A. Weisheipl and Joachim R. Söder

have referred to him as the greatest German philosopher and

theologian of the Middle Ages. The Catholic Church distin-

guishes him as one of the 36 Doctors of the Church.

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!

It’s a real paradox; but, in the spiritual life, the more we give away, the more our spiritual life increases. In today’s first

reading, the widow of Zarephath was willing to sacrifice all she had to keep herself and her son alive, so that Elijah could have something to eat. Because she complied with the Lord’s wishes the Lord performed a miracle for her. She discovered her true worth. The poor widow in the Gospel gave out of her poverty and what she gave was worth more to the Lord than any amount a rich man could give. Her true worth was known to the Lord. She gave from her heart without considering herself. We would do well to follow the example of the widow of Zarephath and the poor widow in the Gospel. It’s not so much the amount we give as the disposition of our heart from where we should give. Giving out of humility rather than pride should give us a sense of being right with God. God sees this and will reward us accordingly.

God bless you all,

Fr. Guy
