Dear Brothers & Sisters,

I want to thank each one of you for your excellent Roles yesterday.  Br. Eric  (Treasurer and Spiritual Correspondence for the Orlando Comitium) went back to the Orlando Diocese with a happy heart full of great hope for our faith & the Legion of Mary. He was so pleased to witness your sincerity, your academic skills & dedication for our O.L.P.H. Jr. Praesidium.  Br. Eric contacted Deacon Manny who is the Spiritual Director for the  Comitium, to share his afternoon with him. Deacon Manny expressed congratulations to each of you but mostly for your parents, teachers &  grandparents who support & teach you to stay committed to our faith & Legion. He also asked that Principal Leigh know how impressed and pleased he was with all the her pupils and was amazed with Julia & Avery’s sharing  & understanding of their interpretation of the handbook study.  Thanks to Elida, Br. Eric loved your famous tuna sandwiches!! Praising God for answering the call of our Blessed Mother to remember Jesus.

Thank you all for the great representation of both our Parish & School. God Bless everyone,

Geeta H.

The lights were dimmed and the Sacred Heart Catholic School gym was transformed into a museum Friday, October 30 in celebration of All Saints’ Day. The 2015 Saints’ Parade, Museum and Exhibit, hosted by Sacred Heart Catholic School, offered visitors of all ages a chance to learn about many Saints’ lives. Every class contributed a project such as posters, dioramas, life-sized paper doll Saints and even pumpkins decorated as Saints! During the school mass that day, the Saints’ Parade was the introduction to our celebration. Later in the day, the gym was transformed into a museum as “living statues” quickly became the highlight of the event. What a great success the Saint’s Mass and Saint’s Museum of 2015 was for our school – so proud!

Pat & Barb Clark went on a road trip this summer to Esopus to visit and  see Father Browne’s grave stone. They wanted to  share the following photos with all of us!! Below are pictures taken of Father Browne’s grave stone. The property is now owned by a Bruderhoff group, a religious organization. They welcomed Pat & Barb with open arms and wanted to know more about Father Browne. Truly a wonderful visit for all!!!

Fr. Tom was in the city of Shrul, Ireland which is in County Mayo to visit his mother. Although his visit was brief, he enjoyed his visit with his mother and other family members.

While he was there he celebrated a Mass at St. Joseph and visited the school, nursing homes and the Redemptorist Community.

Fr. Aldrin had a busy week & weekend by attending the girls Vocation Club Meeting with Sr. Josephine and serving as Spiritual Director for both  the Pilgrim Virgin Visit to Elsa and Barnaby Romo’s home on Saturday. He also was Spiritual Director for the Orlando Diocese monthly Comitium meeting which was held at St. Peter’s & Paul Catholic Church in Winter Park on Sunday.

These are only a few projects that we have accomplished in just the beginning of our year. We again say thank you for your support and look forward to doing much more as the year continues. Look for our Knights Christmas Party in December, More School Scholarship Programs to help our kids attend Sacred Heart Catholic School and our Lenten Fish Fry which is always a success and a great time for all. These are only a few of the events that we are planning this year.

We hope that the men of the parish eighteen and above consider becoming a Knight. It’s easy just pick up a form in the church alcove or office, ask a knight or contact me Grand Knight Fran McGrath at 386-314-6480. Your effort and help is appreciated.

You will get back much more that you give.
