JOIN US FOR A LITTLE CLOWNING AROUND
A SMILE A DAY KEEPS THE SADNESS
AWAY!!
“And in my final moment, may I hear you
whisper, when you made my people smile, you
made me smile.”
What better way to go through life, than to
have God smiling on you because you are
bringing joy to others! Bringing joy to
others, does that sound like something you
would like to do?
Well, the Knights of Columbus Clown Club is
having an Introduction to Clowning
Workshop on Saturday, April 11, 2015 at
Most Sacred Heart Church in Eureka to
continue our Ministry of bringing Smiles to
God’s people.
We have limited space; please make your
registration by April 4, 2015.
This workshop is open to everyone; we encourage
families to do this together; YOUNG clowns go
over quite well. What a great way to get the
whole family involved while having fun.
So why not give it a try. Each of us has a special
talent that can bring a smile to someone’s face,
whether it be a balloon sculpture, face painting, storytelling, magic, a hug, a handshake or a simple hello. You will be glad you
did and you will find it very rewarding to reach out
to those who need someone like you in sharing your
time, warmth and smile with them.

The Divine Physician
Ever heard of the Sacrament of Peace and Healing?
That's what we should call the Sacrament of Penance. A free booklet was distributed at all the Masses last
weekend. "Jesus Christ, The Divine Physician". Be sure to get a copy from the back of church, if you didn’t
receive one last weekend, and read it prayerfully.
It will inspire you to bring yourself frequently to Jesus for healing and peace.
As Pope Francis has written "Everyone needs to be touched by the comfort and attraction of God's saving
love, which is mysteriously at work in each person, above and beyond their faults and failings."

Calling ALL Men of Most Sacred Heart Parish
How about planning a Retreat or attending a Spiritual Conference?
WHAT is a Retreat? Most if not all of you have asked yourself this same question at some point in your life.
How are we to know what God wishes us to do? One of the best ways to find out what God has in mind for
us is to make a retreat. A retreat is not meant to be just an emotional experience, its purpose is to transform
your daily life, the one you will return to when the retreat is over.
WHY attend a retreat? There are many reasons: perhaps you sense this need in yourself already.
Or, on the other hand perhaps someone who’s close to you – a spouse, a friend – has suggested you really
ought to make a retreat.
There are all sorts of personal reasons for making a retreat. Perhaps you are looking for a much-appreciated
rest from the rush and clamor of everyday life. You might wish to take time to set your thoughts and affairs in
order or rearrange your priorities. Some come to deepen their faith or to resolve some personal problem.
Whatever the case, most people do not have a clear-cut reason for attending a retreat and that’s good.
You might ask, WHY? Because God has His reasons for having you come at this point in your life.
He wants you to set aside your “reasons,” whatever they may be, to open your mind and heart to Him alone:
to learn what plans He has for you in your life.
If you are interested or have any questions please call one of your fellow parishioners listed below.
