True Disciples of Jesus
written by Br. Silas Henderson

Rules and traditions are incredibly important, but we have to be sure that we don’t become so fixated on the details of traditions or teachings that we risk losing sight of what is most important: The Gospel of Jesus Christ.

Music For The
21st Sunday in Ordinary Time
|

Dear Fellow Parishioners, We’re not singing any new music at Mass this week, but you can find all the words to these familiar songs in this attachment. This week in the Gospel, many disciples found what Jesus said to be hard to accept and Jesus asked the apostles if they were going to leave him, too. Peter replied, “Lord, to whom should we go? You have the words of everlasting life.” The following music selections are primarily based on this text.
Enjoy the music! Stay healthy and may God bless you with all good things. Janis Cantú |

The God of Choices
written by Colleen Jurkiewicz Dorman
|
|
God lets us choose Him. He does not trick us. He does not lie in wait. He does not blackmail or entrap us. His authority over us is the kind that never chafes, because it is entirely divorced from the concept of power. The choice to obey is ours.

Music For The
Assumption Of The Blessed Virgin Mary

Dear Fellow Parishioners, The music for Mass is all familiar to you, with the communion song, Take and Eat, being the least known, but we introduced it a couple of weeks ago. The words to that song and all the others can be found in this attachment. This week we’re celebrating the Assumption of the Blessed Virgin Mary, so I’m sure you can guess the theme of this week’s music selections!
Next I have a couple of international videos singing (and dancing) in praise of the Blessed Virgin:
That’s it for this week. I hope you enjoy the music and have a fabulous week full of God’s blessings. Janis Cantú |

This Friday’s
|
|
Dear Women of Sacred Heart Parish, After careful thought and with some sadness, we have decided to postpone the Women’s Social this Friday, August 13, 2021, until we feel more confident that when we get together, we will be able to fully enjoy ourselves and stay healthy. Please help pass the word to any friends you may have planned to attend with. But, Fear Not! We will put our heads together and look for new opportunities, new moments to bring our very special community of women together. If you have suggestions for future gatherings, send them in! You will not be forgotten. You are being prayed for. With love and respect and hope always, |

Believing and Rejoicing
written by Allison Gingras
|
|
How easily we can falter to believe, looking for signs and wonders as caveats of believing. Obstacles against seeing and accepting the truth of God’s promises fulfilled can mount daily if we fail to view the world with the eyes of a heart willing to see God at work.

Music For The
19th Sunday in Ordinary Time
|
|
Dear Fellow Parishioners, The music this week should all be familiar except for our communion song, Most of the readings this week again focus on bread from heaven, so some of my share selections for the week focus on the Eucharist, but I also have a few songs here that are based on the second reading in which St, Paul tells us to be kind to one another.
Enjoy the music! May God grant you all good things and bless you with good health. Janis Cantú |
