Ministry of Care
If you or a family member are admitted to a hospital and would
like to receive Penance, Anointing of the Sick or Holy communion, please ask for the Catholic Hospital Chaplain to be
sent. If there is no Catholic Chaplain, or you would like to see
a priest, deacon or Minister of Care from Sacred Heart, call
the Rectory Office. According to the HIPPA Act, hospitals no
longer notify parishes with patient names. If you are homebound and would like to receive the Sacraments, please call
the Rectory Office at 708-344-0757.
Si usted o algún miembro de la familia está enfermo en el hospital y desea Confesarse, recibir la Unción de los enfermos y la
Santa Comunión, pida que el capellán Católico que lo visite. Si
no ofrecen a un Capellán Católico o usted desea que lo visite
un sacerdote, diácono o Ministro de Cuidado de la parroquia,
llámenos a la rectoría. De acuerdo con las leyes del Acta HIPPA, el hospital no puede notificar a las parroquias los nombres
de los enfermos. Si usted vive en nuestra área parroquial y
desea recibir los Sacramentos, llámenos al 708-344-0757
D
ear friends in Sacred Heart:
Two weeks of Lent are gone! I hope we are doing our best to integrate good habits in our
life! Lent is time for change; renewal and conversion. Prayer, Fasting and Almsgiving are the practice to mortify our body and lift up our spirit according to St. Augustin’s teachings.
© J.S. Paluch Co.,
I really thank the parish groups like Woman’s Club and Holy Name Society; every year they
have run events for our community helping Sacred Heart Parish and School. The Women’s Club
Christmas Bazar supporting our school with $3,500.00 through that event, and just recently Holy Name Society ran the
annual “Corned Beef - Nite at the Races Dinner” in supporting our community as well.
Last Sunday, February 22, after 12:30 mass, the Hispanic Ministry collaborated with our Parish, giving a donation of
$2,100.00. Thank you for all the hard work and dedication, and to all the people who donate time and efforts to make
possible all the events. In the same way I want to thank all of you who participate and support the activities of Sacred
Heart. We work together to keep our mission statement alive welcoming everybody, offering our time, talents and treasure to build God’s Kingdom.
As we continue in our efforts to serve you in a better way, sometimes we face a challenge. People sometimes come
to the Parish office requesting a recommendation letter or to sign a sponsor form for Confirmation or sponsor form for a
Baptism, but unfortunately we have no records in our system showing that you belong to Sacred Heart Parish, or we do
not know about your Sunday attendance every weekend. If we DO NOT KNOW about you, how can we help you?
Maybe you do not know about the necessity to be registered in a Church community, or maybe you consider registration something not important or useless, but IT IS NOT.
This is why we will have a Registration Weekend on March 8th, 15th, 22nd and 29th. So if you are not a registered
parishioner in Sacred Heart parish, I invite you to do so. There are a lot of advantages to being a registered parishioner.
Please see the information included in this weekend’s bulletin to know more about the importance of being part of the
Sacred Heart community. Our family is growing and I invite you to be active with us!
Peace to all
Fr. Francisco Ortega

SOUP & BREAD & STATIONS OF THE CROSS:
We all will join for “Stations of the Cross” in the Church at 6:00pm in English &
at 7:00pm in Spanish. We will be serving Soup & Bread on Fridays during Lent
at 6:30pm in the Marian Hall. We may be able to skip a meal & experience hunger & thirst in the world. One way to observe Lent.
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!

REGISTRATION WEEKENDS
COMING….
MARCH 8th, 15th, 22nd, & 29th
Registration will take place during all the Masses
hermanos y hermanas en Cristo:
Q ueridos
Dos semanas de Cuaresma se han ido! Espero estemos dando nuestro mejor esfuerzo para integrar
buenos hábitos en nuestra vida! Cuaresma is tiempo de cambio, renovación y conversión. Oración, ayuno
y limosna son las prácticas para mortificar nuestro cuerpo y elevar el espíritu, según lo enseña San Agustín.
Quiero agradecer a los grupos parroquiales como el “Grupo de Damas” y la Sociedad del Santo Nombre, cada año tienen eventos para nuestra comunidad ayudando al Sagrado Corazón en la Parroquia y en la Escuela. El Bazar navideño de Diciembre pasado ayudo a nuestra escuela con $3,500.00 dls. Recientemente la Sociedad del Santo Nombre tuvo su cena anual de “Elote y Res” para ayudar a nuestra comunidad.
El pasado domingo 22 de Febrero, después de la misa de 12:30, El grupo del Ministerio Hispano de la parroquia entrego
su donación de $2,100.00. Mil gracias a todos los líderes por su trabajo duro, dedicación, donación de su tiempo y esfuerzo
para hacer posible todos los eventos. De igual manera quiero agradecer a todos ustedes por apoyar y participar de las actividades en el Sagrado Corazón. Trabajamos juntos para mantener nuestra misión viva dando la bienvenida a todos, ofreciendo nuestro tiempo, talento y recursos para construir el Reino de Dios.
Continuamos con nuestro esfuerzo para servirte mejor, pero a veces nos enfrentamos con un reto. Gente llega a nuestra
oficina pidiendo una carta de recomendación o con una forma para ser padrino de confirmación o de bautismo, pero desafortunadamente no tenemos ninguna información en el sistema de que pertenecen a la parroquia. No sabemos si vienen o
no a participar en su misa dominical. Si NO SABEMOS de ustedes, como podemos ayudarles? Posiblemente no sabemos
de la necesidad de ser parte de una comunidad, o tal vez consideramos el estar registrados algo sin importancia o inútil,
PERO NO LO ES.
Esta es la razón por la cual tendremos en nuestra parroquia el Registro del Fin de Semana el próximo 8 y 15 de Marzo. Si
tu no estas registrado a la parroquia del Sagrado Corazón, te invito a que seas parte de nuestra familia. Por favor lee la información en este boletín hay muchas ventajas por lo que es conveniente ser parte de nuestra comunidad. Se parte activa
de nosotros!
Paz y bien,
Fr. Francisco Ortega
¿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.
