Fr. McDermott, Deacon Terry, Deacon Rey, Ferrell,
and the Staff here at Sacred Heart,
would like to wish you and your family a very Blessed and
Happy Thanksgiving.
Dear Parish Family,
What an exciting International Food Fest we celebrated this past Sunday – this is a great parish community! God has blessed us and we thank God for each of you who has shared your time,
talent and treasure to make this such a wonderful community over the years.
We have a long list of folks to thank for our International Fest: our coordinator, Angel Vano,
the Filipino Community, Chamorro Community, Hispanic Community, Korean Community, Samoan
Community, Vietnamese Community, Ken and the Holy Name, St. Margaret’s, St. Brigid’s, St. Jude’s,
St. Joseph’s, the German Club, CEBU Restaurant and Saigon Rendezvous. A special appreciation
goes to Caroline, Ron and Phil. These three worked behind the scenes to make sure that everything
was ready for the set-up and organized for the clean-up. Our entertainment was provided by the Korean Community Choir, the Samoan Community Dancers and the Hispanic Community Dancers.
What a wonderful musical experience for all of us! They were all inspiring. Three cheers for all the
great raffle gifts and the donors.
In addition to all the wonderful dishes served to over 400 guests, we consumed 240 hot dogs.
Thank you again to all who made this day so wonderful for all of us. We sure know how to feed the
parish. A really special thank-you again to Angel Vano, our coordinator. We already looking forward
to next year’s Celebration with Angel leading us.
Gratefully, Fr. Pat and Staff

Dear Parishioners,
As we approach Thanksgiving Day, I would like to share these thoughts with you.
Thanksgiving Day invites us to pause and recall the many reasons we have to be thankful.
We hear so many negative thoughts and ideas that they may begin to dominate our way of
thinking. Thanksgiving time is a time to dump our negative thoughts that easily make us
overly angry, resentful, and upset even at the ordinary problems of life. When we recall the
good people, and the events and things that have blessed us, our attitude and outlook
changes for the better.
As you prepare for Thanksgiving, write down ten things for which you are grateful.
Perhaps plan to make it a family project and post the list to the refrigerator. Continue to add new ideas or draw a
picture of people, events and things that you and family member are grateful for. Here are some ideas from a high
school student. “I am having a really tough time in high school right now. Even though most times I have positive
thoughts and attitudes, sometimes it gets really hard but I usually catch myself and try to reverse the negative
thoughts into positive ones.
1. I have a caring family.
2. I have amazing friends.
3. I have the opportunity to wake up in the morning.
4. I am able to watch the sun rise and set.
5. I am able to do things with my friends.
6. I was able to be at the beach this summer for a whole week without my parents.
7. I was blessed to have a special person in my life that is now in a better place.
8. I have a very special person who is always there and with whom I can always talk to.
9. I am able to read great books.
10. Last summer’s dreams came true and I was able to attend a concert of my favorite singer. Thanksgiving
is an opportunity to remind me of all these wonderful times and people in my life. Every time I find myself
getting negative I try and remember each of these special times and people that God has sent into my life.
Did you know that simply being thankful and making it a point to recognize the good things we have experienced will help us to have a positive outlook on life? There is scientific proof that we will be happier, healthier and better able to handle the stresses of daily life simply by saying “thank you”.
Professors Emmons, a University of California, Davis professor, found that people who view life as a gift
and consciously acquire an “attitude of gratitude” will experience multiple advantages. His research indicates
that “Gratitude” improves emotional and physical health. It can strengthen relationships and communities. He
encourages people to keep a gratitude journal, to learn prayers of gratitude, and to use visual reminders to help
them recall things and people they are grateful for.
He says that without gratitude, life can be lonely, depressing and impoverished. He adds that “gratitude
enriches human life. It elevates, energizes, inspires and transforms. People are moved, more open to one another,
and humbled through expressions of gratitude.”
We are the recipients of unearned blessings and benefits. God has blessed us with many gifts. We have
received gifts, favors, and blessing from others. Take time to thank God and those who have blessed you. May
God continue blessing you.
Fr. Pat
Big “Thank you” to our Master Gardeners for the beautiful flowers brought in faithfully every weekend to
enhance our altar. Their gardens must look like the garden of Eden. Thank you, thank you, thank you,
parishioners of Sacred Heart! May God bless you.

LMBOROS@comcast.net.
Dialogue For Justice
Today’s Gospel (Mt
25:31-46) has a distinct
call to action! We are
challenged to create a
more just world. The reassuring words of Jesus come with a condition.
He begins by saying, “Inherit the kingdom prepared for you from the foundation of the world.”
And then he tells us what we must do to gain
this inheritance, “For I was hungry and you gave
me food, I was thirsty and you gave me drink,
naked and you clothed me, ill and you cared for
me, in prison and you visited me.” Our faith is
learned on our knees through prayer and then
practiced on the streets of our lives. This is what
Pope Francis meant when he said, “I want a
church which is bruised, hurting and dirty because it has been out on the streets.” A new
church year dawns and we who profess Christ
are called to work for justice. Will we dirty our
hands?
Samoan Mass scheduled for Sunday,
December 21, 2014 at 4pm in Fabian
Hall. For any questions, please contact

Christ the King
When the Son of Man comes in glory, may we be among those who have fed the hungry, welcomed the
stranger, and clothed the naked. For Jesus tells us clearly that it is those who have demonstrated good stewardship by sharing their gifts with the less fortunate who will receive God’s blessing and inherit the kingdom.

¿Me Has Encontrado en los Pobres?
Con una grandiosa visión, el Año Litúrgico
acaba con la celebración de Cristo Rey, y el
próximo sábado comenzará el nuevo Año de
la Iglesia con el Adviento. El evangelio de
hoy, de San Mateo, nos presenta la escena
de Cristo nuestro Señor que viene como rey a juzgar a
los hombres. Esta escena es la contrapartida de las
Bienaventuranzas, donde los pobres y los que sufren
se llamaban felices y dichosos. En el juicio, el Señor
nos preguntará: "¿Qué has hecho en favor de los
pobres y de los que lloraban?". Jesús se presenta aquí
a sí mismo no sólo como cercano a los pobres y
humildes, sino que él mismo es el pobre, el manso, el
enfermo, el perseguido. Y nos vuelve a preguntar:
¿"Me has encontrado en ellos?" ¿Qué le respondemos?
Día Acción de Gracias
Jueves el 27 de noviembre
celebramos una Misa especial para
dar gracias a Dios por todo lo que
hemos recibido de su mano. Todos están bienvenidos
a la Misa bilingüe de las 9:00.
Libros en Venta
En la entrada del templo hay libros de
venta. Casi todos están en ingles, pero
hay el Nuevo Testamento con Lectio
Divina está en español. Cada libro
cuesta $2.00. Hay libros para jóvenes y
adultos en ingles.
Confesiones en Diciembre
Los jueves de diciembre antes de
Navidad habrá confesiones de
5:30PM a 6:30PM., también los
sábados antes de Navidad serán
después de la misa de las 9:00AM, y el horario regular los sábados comenzando a las 3:00PM.
CORRESPONSABILIDAD
Cuando el Hijo del Hombre venga glorificado, que estemos nosotros entre los que hayan dado de comer al
hambriento, dado la bienvenida al extranjero y vestido al desnudo. Porque Jesús nos dice claramente que son
aquellos que han demostrado una buena administración de los bienes de Dios compartiendo sus dones con los
menos afortunados los que recibirán la bendición de Dios y heredarán el reino.

To Judge the Living and the Dead… Today, the last day of our Liturgical Year, we
Celebrate Christ as ruler and universal shepherd. This feast should remind us of the original
Ascension feast in which we celebrate the exalted Christ, crowned with glory at the right hand
of God. The liturgy takes us through a journey in which we are shown a glimpse of the final
judgment. There are two judgments that occur, Particular Judgment which wages the moral
quality of one’s life immediately after death gauging whether the individual either cooperated or
rejected God’s grace; and Final Judgment, which refers to the end time of history, the passing
of definitive judgment on all people, nations and history itself. Our final fate will be determined
by the imperative of loving one’s neighbor. Jesus, The Living Word, will reveal God’s glorious
triumph vs. evil, as well as the ultimate meaning of the whole works of creation.
Our Lord Jesus
Christ King of the
Universe
RCIA will not have class on November 30th in celebration of our Thanksgiving weekend.
Please go to Mass and reflect upon the scripture. Happy Thanksgiving Day!
The Rite of Christian Initiation of Adults (RCIA) is the journey through which adults are gently introduced to the
Roman Catholic faith and way of life. Children who were not baptized as infants too, are initiated through an
adapted process of this rite. The RCIA is also the venue for people that were baptized young, but did not receive any further formation, to reencounter with their faith.

Celebrating Children
To the parents of our young children, May we suggest:


Relax! God put the wiggles in children, don't feel you have to suppress in God’s house.
Sit toward the front where it is easier to see & here.
Quietly explain the parts of the Mass.
Sing the hymns, pray and voice the responses. Children learn liturgical behavior by copying you.
If you have to leave Mass with your child, please feel free to do so, but please come back. As
Jesus said, “Let the children come to me.”
 Remember that the way we welcome children in the Church directly affects the way they respond
to the Church, to God, to Christ and to one another. Let them know that they are at home in this
house.

the children is a gift to the Church. They give us “A future full of hope.”

Senior High Retreat
This past weekend I had the pleasure of attending the South Sound Deanery Senior High Retreat at Black Lake
Bible Camp. Thirteen amazing teens from Sacred Heart participated in this event. They represented our Parish
well and I was very proud of them. Teens gave witness talks, attended Mass and Adoration, participated in group
sessions and had a great time! They are ready to be true Evangelizers of their Faith!
Special thanks to Chad Lucero and Morgan Smith, our Senior High young adult team leaders. They made this
event possible by volunteering their time and talents. Many Blessings were bestowed upon us this weekend.
Katherine C. Baker
Youth Minister
OUTSIDE GROUPS & EVENTS
