Increased Offertory Initiative
Today’s Readings
“No servant can serve two masters. Either he will hate the one
and love the other or be attentive to the one and despise the
other.” (Luke 16:13).
Stewardship is an important concept for our spiritual growth as
Catholics. It is a way of thanking God for all God’s blessings by
returning to him a portion of our time and treasure. Giving of our
time involves being with God in prayer and worship and volunteering our time in the church and community activities that help
others. Sharing our talents arises from the fact that God has given
each of us the ability and gifts to do certain things well, and we
are to develop those talents for the good of others. Sharing our
treasure gives us the opportunity to share our abundance with
God, the church and with others.
“Wherever your treasure lies, there your heart will be.” (Luke
12:34)
BAPTISM AND RCIA TEAM MEMBERS NEEDED
Our Baptism and RCIA programs are in need of additional team
members. Ideally we hope to have several team members so that
those volunteers might only need to commit to one monthly meeting. Team members needn’t be theologians or scholars of Catholic doctrine, just members of the Catholic community with a deep
love for God and a willingness to share their faith. Those interested learning more may contact Bernadette at 781-893-8461.
FALL MEAT RAFFLE
Be sure to mark your calendar for the annual Fall Meat Raffle,
Friday, November 21st. Doors open at 6:30 and ticket sales begin
at 7:00PM . There’s always lots of fun and FREE snacks, hot
dogs, dessert and coffee (soda and water will be available at a
nominal cost). Each round will include a bag of choice cuts of
meat and poultry, and additional drawings will include fresh turkeys, scratch tickets and much more! Come one come all, contact
us if you wish to bring a group of ten and we’ll reserve a table!
WORLD MISSION SUNDAY 2014
This weekend, members of the Marist Missionary Sisters community will speak at all Masses in observance of World Mission Sunday. World Mission Sunday is a day set aside for the Catholic
Church throughout the world to publicly renew its commitment to
the missionary movement. World Mission Sunday is ordinarily
celebrated on the third Sunday of October every year. This day of
recognition of Catholic Missions world-wide was instituted by
Pope Pius XI in 1926 as the day of prayer and support for the
propagation of the faith throughout the world. This Sunday’s second collection supports our foreign missions and all those, like the
good Sisters who serve them. Please be as generous as possible.
ADORATION OF THE BLESSED SACRAMENT
Eucharistic Adoration had resumed and will take place on the
First Friday of each month from 8:00AM-12:00 Noon. The Third
Order of Mary will also hold Adoration on Sunday, October 19th
from 2:30AM to 4:00PM and continuing at that time on the third
Sunday of every month.
VOLUNTEER(S) NEEDED
We are seeking one or several volunteers for a relatively simple task, to “adopt a pump”. Our religious
education building contains 6 large pumps which
keep our rooms dry. They are relatively easy to maintain but they do require an occasional check to keep a
balanced water level in the battery. We are seeking
one or more volunteer who could take on the task of
overseeing the pumps every other month or so and
refilling the battery with water when necessary. John
Carter, a parish volunteer who manages the systems
in the church will be more than pleased to have a volunteer or two for the RE room pumps and will walk
the volunteer through the process of checking and
filling the battery. This is the perfect volunteer opportunity for busy parishioners or Religious Education
parents who can’t commit much time but would like
to help their church. For additional information contact Bernadette at 781-893-8461.
ALL SOULS COMMEMORATION
On Saturday, November 1st Sacred Heart will host the yearly
Commemoration of the Deceased Parishioners in observance of
the Feast of All Souls. The Mass will take place at 10:00AM.
Family members of loved ones who were buried from Sacred
Heart Church in the past year have been invited to honor and remember those loved ones at this special liturgy. During the liturgy a member of each family is invited to participate in the candle
lighting ritual as the names of the deceased loved ones are read.
Following the Mass all are invited to share in fellowship and enjoy light refreshments which will be served in the front vestibule
of the church.
OCTOBER MASS COUNTS
If you can help, please arrive 15-20 minutes before the start of
Mass Volunteer sign-up sheets for those who can designate a
Mass to help at, can be found at the front and parking lot entrances of the church. The remaining Mass Count weekend is 25/26.
BAPTISM PREPARATION
This month baptism preparation classes will take place on Thursday, October 30th. Parents who are baptizing a child at Sacred
Heart Church are required to attend the baptism preparation class
prior to their child’s baptism. We welcome expectant parents and
encourage them to attend preparation before choosing their child’s
godparent. Knowing the responsibilities of a godparent (sponsor)
will better prepare you for making this important choice for your
child and his/her faith life. To arrange for the baptism of your
child, please contact the Parish Office 781-899-0469 MondayThursday from 9:00AM-3:00PM. Baptism Classes are held in the
Religious Education Center adjacent to the Parish Office building.

LIFE CHALLENGES AND THE CHURCH
COMMUNITY
Research shows that some people with varying stages of dementia/
Alzheimer's disease, attending Mass may be overly stimulating,
while for others with the same conditions it can be a source of
comfort and reflection. The same can be said for those who attend
Mass from our local area Group Residences for those who are differently-abled. In both cases many of these Mass attendees come
to church accompanied by caregivers, whether family members or
employed companions to assist them at Mass. Our role as members of the church is to make every effort to welcome everyone
and insure that their faith experience is fruitful and enriching. It
might be as simple as moving into a pew to enable caregivers and
their charges to have easy accessibility, handing a worship aid to
those who might benefit by following the text, and most importantly by meeting other Mass goers with a friendly smile and
kind words. Finally, remember that oftentimes those impacted by
memory diminishing illnesses may not remember a name or face
making it even more challenging in a church setting when encountering old friends. Greeting them and affirming their presence at
Mass is important. Even if they seem distant or confused as to
whom you are, most caregivers would agree that the personal outreach and human contact can make a difference in the person’s
quality of life. As we face an ever-growing and aging population,
we will encounter more and more people who need our understanding and friendship. Let us pray that we may follow the call of
Jesus by welcoming others and sharing our love and compassion.
"Is any man sick among you? Let him bring in the p" riests"of the
church, and let them pray over him."– James 5:14
On the weekend of November 22nd and 23rd the Friars will administer the sacrament of the anointing of the sick. Father Octavio
and Father Dennis will administer the Sacrament following the
4:00PM Mass on Saturday and following the 10:00AM Mass on
Sunday. The Sacrament of the Sick is administered to those who
are gravely ill, to those about to undergo a serious operation and
for those undergoing treatment for the recovery of their health and
for spiritual strength appropriate not only for physical but also for
mental and spiritual sickness. Anointing of the Sick is administered by a priest to any person who has reached the age of reason
and whose health is in jeopardy due to grave illness. This rite is
one way in which the Church continues the healing ministry of
Jesus. The healing offered by this anointing is forgiveness of sins,
hope and inner peace, sometimes physical healing, and an assurance of God's steadfast care, even in death. If you, or a loved one
desire the healing touch of Christ, we encourage you to partake of
the sacrament of the sick. For those who need assistance, please
utilize the handicapped parking and handicapped entrance on
Grove Street.
