Giving Tuesday
Our annual Giving Tuesday appeal is a time when we ask our congregation to
consider giving a gift, no matter how small,
to support our parish before the holiday
season. Our hope is to raise over $15,000 for our general parish
needs, restoration and maintenance of our two churches, subscription
fees for FORMED and MagnifiKid! (for our youth), an additional kiosk
to share communications for Respect Life, and funds to subsidize the
tuition for Religious Education for those families who cannot afford it. We count on your financial support to help Sacred Heart continue
to grow and thrive, especially after a difficult pandemic.
Go to shgparish.org/give to donate. Even $5, or the price of that
second cup of coffee, goes a long way in helping us meet our goal!
Tuesday, November 30 5:00 pm — 8:00 pm
Food Drive for St. Ann’s
Our staff will be out in our church courtyard area collecting your
non-perishable food donations for St. Ann’s Parish.
Drive around the front loop and we will unload your car for you.
During this holiday season, the need is great for those in our
communities less fortunate than we are. Thank you for your support.
Collections also welcome this weekend in the Narthex.
Dear Parishioners,
Advent is now upon us! I know some places are
celebrating Christmas already and Costco has had trees up
before Halloween, but I invite you to enter into the true spirit of
Advent. The first two weeks focus on the Second Coming of
Christ in time. The Scriptures contain beautiful prophecies and
the great figure of John the Baptist. The second two weeks of
Advent focus on Jesus’ first coming in time 2,000 years ago and
that beautiful demonstration of love by God the Father as He
sent His Son into our world.
We provided booklets last weekend on Christ the King to
help all of us pray during this season. Take some time from the
hustle and bustle and demands of the season to sit quietly for
even 5 minutes and reflect on the beauty of what God does for
us and has done for us in His Son. Make an Advent wreath, light
the candles and meditate on the wonder of Light coming into our darkness. Participate in our Advent giving programs to
remember to reach out, and not in, during this season. Come
early to church and spend a few minutes in quiet prayer. We do
not have to let the world make us crazy. Instead let us transform ourselves as we watch, ponder and wait.
Adopt-A-Family
Take an ornament and return your wrapped gift by the
weekend of December 11/12 for neighbors in need at St. Ambrose and Catholic Charities. Please attach the ornament
to the package. Gift cards and checks can be left at the
Welcome Desk or Parish Center.
Parish Food Drive
Leave your non-perishable food items in the Main Church for
St. Ann’s Parish during this weekend or drop off to our staff in
front of the churches from 5-8 pm on November 30th.
Giving Tuesday November 30
Donate now or on Giving Tuesday at shgparish.org/give.
Funds collected benefit the beautification of the Blessed
Mother outside area, FORMED and MagnifiKid! subscriptions,
Religious Education subsidies, a Respect Life kiosk, and the preservation and restoration of our churches.
Little Bethlehem Hand Carved Religious Items
For Sale After All Masses December 4/5
Little Bethlehem Christians is a group that represents over 300 Christian and Catholic families who live in Bethlehem,
Jerusalem, the Shepherd’s field and the Holy Land area,
and they make their livings as Olive Wood Carvers.
After all Masses next weekend, the group represented by the
family will display a collection of hand carved Olive Wood
religious items for sale. The profit goes to support the
existence of Christianity in the land of Christ.
