St. Gerard Mass Schedule    –    Tuesday December 8,   –    9:00am

It’s that time of year again and time to rev up for the Christmas season. The Adult Choir will sing at the 10:00pm Midnight Mass. This Choir will perform beautiful Christmas anthems written throughout the ages as a 30 minute prelude to enhance our spiritual experience of the Incarnation. The Family Mass, at 5:00pm, will consist of a Children’s Choir. This choir will be open to all children in both public and private school between the 4th and 8th grade. We are looking for at least 10 children to lead the congregation in sung praise. Rehearsals will be held on Thursday afternoons from 3:30 to 4:30pm. We are also in need of at least 3 adult volunteers, preferably parents, who can be at rehearsal, and help supervise the children before and after rehearsal. Rehearsal will include not only Christmas music but also instruction in music, music history and so much more. It is hoped that this choir can become a permanent part of the music here at Sacred Heart.

To sign up, please call Don Roy at Parish Office at 428-6426.

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.
