D ear friends in Sacred Heart:
Welcome to our Families from Sacred Heart School! Remember you are always welcome to
celebrate our faith and praise the Lord every Sunday in Sacred Heart! You are important for us!
And without you our community is not the same.
Today we are giving the Catechetical Blessings to our Teachers in Sacred Heart School and to
our group of Catechists helping our CCD program. Thank you so much for their dedication, may
the Lord give you wisdom and strength to fulfill your mission in this year!
I invite you to participate in our Parish Pilgrimage on October 29th. We will walk through the
Holy Door, and celebrate the Mass in Holy Name Cathedral at 10:30 am. This is a life time experience. Do not miss this
opportunity! Sacred Heart will have a Coach Bus to provide the round trip transportation Parish-Holy Name CathedralParish for just $35 per person. Please reserve your seat before October 2nd.
Last weekend we had our second training session for all the Altar Servers! We have 37 Altar Servers for this year.
Please keep them in your prayers. This is a huge responsibility for them and they need the support and commitment from
their parents as well. So if your children are part of our AMAZING group, please help him /her to be responsible, arriving
on time when they have to serve. If they are not serving at Mass, they have to attend Mass anyway! It is not vacation for
them. Parents and Altar Servers must attend at their regular Sunday Mass. Please DO NOT SKIP SUNDAYS!
It has been around 4 months since the “To Teach who Christ Is” campaign finished the pulpit announcements. Thank
you so much for all the families supporting the campaign during this time; over $15,000 has been collected so far.
Please don’t forget to submit your donation! We will start soon with our first project. You will receive more information soon.
If you haven’t pledged to our Campaign, you can still do it! Please talk to me and I will explain to you the different
ways you can submit your pledge. Remember it is a 5 year commitment but you can cover your pledge at your convenience. If you prefer, you can submit your pledge “on line” as well!

Pope Francis & Religious Freedom
“The tragic situation faced by our Christian brothers and
sisters in Iraq, as well as by the Yazidi and members of
other religious and ethnic communities, demands that all
religious leaders clearly speak out to condemn these
crimes unanimously and unambiguously, and to denounce
the practice of invoking religion in order to justify them.”

RCIA SEARCH 2016-2017
1. Do you know someone who is interested
in becoming a Catholic, or are you?
2. Are you a Catholic who was baptized but did not receive
any further catechesis, or the initiation sacraments of Confirmation, First Holy Communion, or Confession?
3. Are you a Catholic who would like to “brush-up” on your
belief & practice of the faith?
If the answer to any of the above questions is “YES”, then
RCIA is meant for you or the one you know! The acronym
RCIA stands for the Rite of Catholic (Christian) Initiation of
Adults. It is basically a fuller version of the traditional convert program, which involves the whole parish in seeking,
praying & welcoming new members to God & the Church.
Our Parish RCIA Program will begin October 12th, 2016 &
run until Easter. Classes will be on Wednesday nights at
7pm. The Rites will be at Easter Vigil Mass, Saturday, April

Is God Calling You?
The call of the Holy Spirit to consider a vocation may
sometimes be a gentle voice stirring the soul or a personal
longing in our hearts. It may be the urging of friends or
spouses. It can also find birth in the invitation of the pastors, deacons and parish leaders to pursue such an inquiry.
No matter the source of our questions, each of us needs to
be affirmed and encouraged to bring a call to a vocation
to prayerful discernment.
The Institute for Diaconal Studies invites all men who
feel the gentle nudge of the Holy Spirit to attend an Exploring the Diaconate session. It is a time to pray, discuss,
and learn more about the discernment process and the
formation program that aspirants and candidates pursue.
Please join us, with your wives, if married, as we explore the potential of a vocation, engage in dialogue and
pray in search of the next step. Visit usml.edu for dates.

Dear Sisters and Brothers in Christ,
Last year, in speaking to a conference in Rome, Pope Francis reminded the participants that “the vocation
to the priesthood is a gift that God gives to some for the good of all.” This weekend as we celebrate and pray for
our own seminarians in the Archdiocese of Chicago, I ask you once again for your financial support of them.
We currently have sixty-seven seminarians preparing for a life of service as your future pastors. Their motivation and enthusiasm for serving in the Church through a life-long commitment is inspiring to us all, promoting
us to offer in return our prayers, fraternal encouragement and financial support. Many of you have personally told
me how much you enjoy meeting our seminarians whenever they visit parishes and I know you come away from
those experiences with a renewed sense of hope for the future.
We in turn as a community need to stand with them during their years of preparation and for this reason I
invite you to join with me in making this year’s seminarian collection a great success. Contributions made to this
collection alleviate monthly expenses such as tuition and fees ($1,850), room and board ($950), formation programs ($250), and health insurance ($190) for each seminarian and will be used solely for the formation of new
priests for the Archdiocese of Chicago. You may make a one-time donation no less than your weekly contribution
to your parish, or establish a monthly contribution to the collection. Your gift, whatever the amount, will have a
great impact on our seminarians, as they see first-hand your willingness to stand in solidarity with them.
During the Renew My Church consultation, one of the top priorities identified was the need to promote vocations to the priesthood. We are doing everything possible in this regard, but I do need your support through
prayer and donations to the seminarian collection.
Thank you for your commitment to our seminarians. You can rely on me joining you in prayer for them as
well as my remembrance of your needs as I thank God for your many gifts.
Sincerely yours in Christ,
Most Reverend Blase J. Cupich
Archbishop of Chicago
Septiembre de 2016
Queridos hermanos y hermanas en Cristo:
El año pasado, al hablar en una conferencia en Roma, el Papa Francisco recordó a los participantes que "la
vocación al sacerdocio es un don que Dios concede a algunos para el bien de todos". Este fin de semana en el que celebramos y pedimos por nuestros propios seminaristas de la Arquidiócesis de Chicago, les pido una vez más que los apoyen
económicamente.
Actualmente tenemos sesenta y siete seminaristas que se preparan para una vida de servicio como sus futuros párrocos. Su motivación y entusiasmo para servir en la Iglesia con un compromiso de por vida son una inspiración para todos
nosotros, animándonos a ofrecer a cambio nuestras oraciones, nuestro estímulo fraterno y nuestro apoyo financiero. Muchos de ustedes me han dicho personalmente lo mucho que disfrutan conocer a nuestros seminaristas cuando estos visitan
las parroquias y sé que ustedes salen de esos encuentros con un renovado sentido de esperanza en el futuro.
Para corresponderles necesitamos estar con ellos como comunidad durante sus años de preparación y es por esto
que los invito a que se unan a mi para lograr que la colecta de este año para los seminaristas sea todo un éxito. Las contribuciones hechas a esta colecta ayudarán a cubrir gastos mensuales tales como colegiatura y otras cuotas escolares
($1,850), alojamiento y comida ($950), programas de formación ($250), y el seguro de salud ($190) para cada seminarista,
y serán utilizadas únicamente para la formación de nuevos sacerdotes para la Arquidiócesis de Chicago. Ustedes pueden
decidir hacer un donativo de una sola vez que no sea menor a su contribución semanal a su parroquia, o establecer una
contribución mensual para la colecta. Sus donativos, cualquiera que sea su cantidad, tendrán un gran impacto en nuestros
seminaristas cuando vean de primera mano su disposición para ser solidarios con ellos.
Durante el proceso de indagación de Renueva mi Iglesia , una de las principales prioridades identificadas fue la
necesidad de promover las vocaciones al sacerdocio. Quiero decirles que estamos haciendo todo lo posible en este sentido, pero necesitamos su apoyo a través de sus oraciones y de sus donativos para esta colecta seminarista.
Gracias por su compromiso con nuestros seminaristas. Ustedes pueden confiar en que me uniré a sus plegarias por ellos,
así como que recordaré las necesidades que ustedes tienen en el momento en que agradezca a Dios sus muchos donativos.
Sinceramente suyo en Cristo:
Reverendísimo Blase J. Cupich
Arzobispo de Chicago
