Vivian highlighted the programs and steps the archdiocese has implemented to safeguard children and vulnerable adults since 2003. Immediately following the listening session we opened our evening of prayer in adoration of the Blessed Sacrament with liturgy of the word, petitions for victims, and silent prayer, closing with benediction. I am grateful for Vivian for her commitment to the care of victims, to the program of Protecting God’s Children and to the Church

SACRED HEART COFFEE HOUR The coffee hour at Sacred Heart will resume today, September 30 following the 10:15am Mass.

26th Sunday in Ordinary Time

Kids have been back in class now for a month or more and many schools are holding Parent Nights. It is a chance for teachers to explain what the students will be learning, and to share information about special projects or requirements that parents need to know about. The principal might talk about new changes in the curriculum or construction or upgrade plans that are new. It is a hope-filled, exciting time.

No matter how skilled the teacher may be, or how impressive the course of study, a child still learns more at home than in school. Schools can teach values, but at home they must be lived. Schools can stress the way to success, but at home it must be planned and encouraged. Schools can demand excellence, but it must be nurtured and nourished at home. Schools can offer awards and recognition for a job well done, but it can only be confirmed by family and friends.

Faith is the same way, because faith is more caught than taught. The church can teach it, but families must live it. The church can stress the way to heaven, but families must show it. The church can demand excellence in service and worship, but families must practice it. It is good example and family practice that makes the difference. Let’s strive for top grades this year. Let’s teach what we practice and practice what we teach.
