HOLY FATHER’S INTENTION FOR THE MONTH of June 2017: National Leaders: That national leaders may firmly commit themselves to ending the arms trade, which victimizes so many innocent people.

Propelr Card Changes: Propelr is now partnering with Union Bank & Trust. They have changed banks that participate in the Propelr program. The Propelr program is now available through UBT.

Benefits of making the switch:

No preloading of funds/instant access to money

Local bank supports local community

Same great merchants

All you need to get started is a checking account at UBT, and you will be able to get back to raising funds for Sacred Heart.

You can do everything online in just a few minutes or stop at any Union Bank branch to open your checking account. If you open a new account, you will receive $50 for using your debit card (ten times in 60 days) and you will earn a $50 donation to Sacred Heart.

Peter’s Pence Collection—Be a Witness of Charity Next week, our Diocese will take up the Peter’s Pence Collection, which provides Pope Francis with the funds he needs to carry out his charitable works around the world. In the words of Pope Francis: “The Lord enables us to see with his eyes of love and compassion those who hunger and thirst, strangers, and prisoners, the marginalized and the outcast, the victims of oppression and violence.” This collection benefits precisely the people we ask the Lord to help us see. For those who are suffering or marginalized, this collection helps to bring a little more mercy into their lives.

An envelope for this collection is attached to the bulletin.
