office by the funeral director. We have the Book of Funeral Readings at the rectory for families who wish to look them over. A priest

WELCOME No matter what your present status is in the Catholic Church…
No matter what your current family or
marital situation is…No matter what
your past or present religious affiliation
is…No matter what your personal history, age, back-ground, race or color is...No matter
what your own self-image or esteem is. You are Invited, Welcomed, Accepted, Loved & Respected
here at Sacred Heart Parish!
What it means to be a Church Parishioner?
Maybe you have asked yourself this question, why do I need to be registered in a Church Parish?
Maybe you are an immigrant and you are new to this country; there are a lot of things so different and there is too
much information out there that you need to be aware of, to really make yourself feel at home.
As baptized Catholics and children of God we are called to take care of each other, not only in words but in deeds.
Our mission is to build the Kingdom of God on earth and this is not an easy mission. But it is easier when everybody
does their part and works together! Then we can succeed!
Here are some things to consider why being a registered parishioner is so important:
 We can worship God and be thankful with Him as a big family participating at Mass on all Sundays and Holy Days!
 We can learn our faith deeply when we bring our children to the Catholic School or Religious Education Program.
 We can participate with different groups, activities and services in our parish, contributing with our time and sharing talents on behalf of our community.
 We can celebrate our Sacraments with faith and reverence.
 We can receive pastoral care and spiritual support when is needed.
Being a registered Parishioner is also for your own help, not only before God but also before your civil authorities.
How does it work?
When you are registered in a Church Parish your financial support and contributions you make every Sunday can be
recorded in the parish file when you use your personal envelopes. Your support to your parish turns you into an “Active
Parishioner” (it helps your Pastor to identify easily if you are attending your Sunday Masses and supporting your
Church community).
This STATUS can be extremely helpful when you are in need of:
 A Recommendation Letter to get a new job or to register your children into school.
 When somebody asks you to be sponsor or godparent for a child receiving the sacraments of Baptism, Confirmation
or First Communion.
 When you want to baptize in another church and you need the authorization from your home Parish.
 When you are requested by the Court to present a Letter of good standing to the Judge.
 You can also present the record of your support and contributions for Tax purposes every year; they are tax deductible.
The use of envelopes are VERY important for our Church in order to give you better support in case you need it. Unfortunately if we have no records in our system, we can’t serve you as we would like and as you deserve. At the same
time YOU need to know that ALL of YOUR personal information is confidential and will NOT be given out or shared
with any third parties.
We are called to be good stewards, GET REGISTRED, PRAISE THE LORD
and HELP YOUR CHURCH COMMUNITY!

This collection supports Catholic organizations that provide
affordable shelter and train
seminarians in a region that still struggles from the effects
of Soviet rule. By providing pastoral care, catechesis, and
funding for building renovations, your donations help to

¿Que significa ser un miembro de una parroquia?
Tal ves te has hecho esta pregunta. ¿Por qué necesito estar registrado en una Parroquia?
Tal ves seas inmigrante y nuevo en este país, y existen varias cosas diferentes y mucha información allá afuera que necesitas saber para realmente sentirte como en casa.
Como bautizado e hijos de Dios estamos llamados a cuidarnos entre nosotros mismos, no sólo en palabras sino también en
obras. Nuestra misión es construir el reino de Dios en la tierra y esta no es una misión fácil, pero se vuelve mas fácil cuando
todos hacemos nuestra parte y trabajamos juntos, entonces podremos tener éxito.
Aquí algunas cosas para considerar porque el ser un feligrés registrado a la parroquia es importante:
 Podemos adorar a Dios y ser agradecidos con El, participando cada Domingo y Fiestas como una familia.
 Podemos aprender nuestra fe, profundamente cuando traemos a nuestros hijos a una escuela católica o al programa del
catecismo.
 Podemos participar con diferentes grupos, actividades, y servicios en nuestra parroquia, contribuyendo con nuestro tiempo y compartiendo nuestro talento a favor de nuestra misma comunidad.
 Podemos celebrar nuestros sacramentos con Fe y Devoción.
 Podemos recibir cuidado pastoral y soporte espiritual cuando se necesite.
Ser un feligrés registrado a la parroquia es también para nuestra propio beneficio, no solamente ante Dios si no también ante
nuestras autoridades civiles.
Como es esto?
Cuando eres un feligrés registrado, tu ayuda financiera y contribuciones que tu haces cada domingo puede ser anotada en el
archivo parroquial al usas tus sobres personales. Tu ayuda a nuestra parroquia te convierte en un miembro “Activo” de nuestra Parroquia. (esto ayuda a tu párroco a identificar fácilmente si estas participando en tu misa dominical y ayudando a tu comunidad). Este ESTATUS puede ser ayudarte increíblemente cuando estas en necesidad de:
 Una carta de recomendación para obtener un trabajo, o para registrar a tus hijos en una escuela.
 Cuando alguien te pide ser padrino de un niño que va a recibir el sacramento del bautismo, confirmación o primera comunión.
 Cuando quieres bautizar en otra Iglesia y necesitas la autorización de tu parroquia donde vives.
 Cuando se te pide por la corte presentar una “Constancia de Buena conducta” al juez.
 También puedes presentar el comprobante de tu contribución al declarar tus impuestos cada año, ya que esta ayuda es
deducible de impuestos.
El uso de los sobres ES MUY IMPORTANTE en nuestra parroquia, para poder ayudarte mejor en caso de que lo necesites.
Desafortunadamente cuando no tenemos información en nuestro sistema, NO podemos ayudarte como a nosotros nos gustaría
y como tu lo mereces. Al mismo tiempo TU necesitas saber que TODA LA INFORMACION PERSONAL es confidencial y
nunca será dada o compartida a terceros.
Estamos llamados a ser buenos administradores. REGISTRATE, ALABA AL SEÑOR y AYUDA A TU PARROQUIA.

Heavenly Father, Look upon our brothers and sisters who are ill. In
the Midst of illness and pain, may they be united with Christ, who
heals both body and soul; may they know the consolation promised to those who suffer and be fully restored to health. We ask
this in the name of Jesus the Lord.
If you or one of your loved ones wish to be included on or taken
off the sick list each month, please call the Rectory at 344-0757.
