Calling ALL Men of Most Sacred Heart Parish
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 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.
If you are interested or have any questions please call one of your fellow parishioners listed below.
ACTS Retreat
Retreat Dates: 06/25/15 to 06/28/2015

Volunteers Needed on Saturdays
We are looking for volunteers to help us on Saturday mornings at Marymount Manor – Senior Living Center. We
celebrate a Communion service for the residents at 10:00 am every Saturday, and are in need of volunteers to bring
residents to the service before it starts and return them to their rooms when we are finished. You would not have to
make a commitment to every Saturday, but when you are available to help you would be needed from about 9:30 am
to 11:00 am. If you can help or want information, please contact Deacon Tom and Judy Eultgen at 636-938-6966.
