REFLECTIONS FOR THE WEEK
Question for Children: Jesus appeared to the disciples even though they were afraid and locked in the closed room. How can you
show Jesus to another person this week by how you act?
Question for Youth: Thomas didn’t believe because he hadn’t seen Jesus with his own eyes. How hard is it for you to believe in
God without being able to see God? How do you see God in the words and actions of others?
Question for Adults: Jesus said: "Blessed are those who have not seen and yet believe." Give one example of how you will show
your belief in Jesus this week - how you are being sent forth.
ADORATION IS BACK TO EVERY FIRST
TUESDAY Sacred Heart Parish continues to have Adoration every First
Tuesday of the month. The Exposition of the Blessed
Sacrament will occur after 8:00 am Mass & reposition will be at
7:00 pm. Our next opportunity for Adoration will be Tuesday, April 5th. You are welcome to stop in anytime from 8:00 am to
7:00 pm. Please use the North Church Doors - the other doors
will be locked. In the event of a funeral, Adoration will be
suspended for the duration of the funeral and will resume after
the funeral for the remainder of the day. For more
information, visit the Sacred Heart website under “worship”.
CRS RICE BOWLS - THANK YOU Our community changed lives this Lent, and CRS Rice Bowl wants
to say THANK YOU!! Don’t forget to turn in your CRS Rice Bowl
at church or the church office.
“We give thanks for all those times we have arisen from the depths or simply taken a tiny step toward something new. May we be empowered by extraordinary second chances. And as we enter the world anew, let us turn the tides of despair into endless waves of hope.” Molly Fumia

Drive will take place from April 9 through April 17, 2016. The Sacred
Heart conference of the St. Vincent de Paul Society will have 2
barrels in the gathering space to collect donations.
Items needed are sheets, pillow cases, blankets, towels, washcloths,

the Des Moines metro area including the Homes of Oakridge, various
shelters, as well as SVdP families in need.

ATTENTION BUSINESS OWNERS,
PROFESSIONALS AND SELF EMPLOYED Liturgical Publications Inc. (LPi), our Bulletin publisher, will have a
representative visiting our church the week of April 4 to sell
advertising in our weekly Bulletin. We would like to thank our present
advertisers for renewing their ad and thereby continuing their
support of our Church. For those interested in placing a new ad,
this is your opportunity, to invest in an ad.
Our Bulletin is a primary way we use to communicate with you. Through
our arrangement with the Liturgical Publications Inc., the Church does
not pay for the Bulletin printing, which saves us thousands of dollars
every year. Our Bulletin is supported only through the generosity of
the advertisers, many of whom are our own Church parishioners or
members of our local community. Please support our advertisers with
your patronage. Tell the business owner that you appreciate their
support of our Church through their advertising in the Bulletin. This is
one small way we can work within our own community. A strong and vibrant Bulletin is good for our community and a strong business community is good for our Church.
To obtain information about advertising for the new publication year,
please contact the Church office and ask for Mike or call Mike
directly at 515.321.3732. Mike’s email is [email protected]. Keep in
mind; our advertising sponsors make the Bulletin possible.
LPi’s representative, Mike Denison, will be calling businesses around
our parish and parishioners, the same week. Be prepared for his call,
please. Any parishioners, can also buy an ad for your favorite charity,
friend or talk to your boss and see if they want to invest in an ad.
A NIGHT TO REMEMBER! A fabulous spaghetti dinner will be served at St. Mary of Nazareth
Church – 4600 Meredith Drive on April 9 from 5-7 pm. We will be
serving spaghetti with a choice of three sauces, a spectacular salad,
bread, and spumoni ice cream. The atmosphere allows people to sit,
visit and enjoy a relaxing evening. Please join us. (Adults - $8.00,
children 5-12 yrs - $4.00, 4 and under – free)
FISH FRYS - THANKS FOR YOUR SUPPORT A huge thank you to all of the volunteers and patrons at the six Lenten
Friday Fish Frys this year. About 250 volunteers served 1200 pounds of
fish to a record crowd of more than 2200 people throughout the six
weeks. The profits from this event will help pay for teens to attend the
summer mission trip to serve the poor in South Texas in June as well as
the Steubenville Catholic Conference in July. Some of the money will
also be used to provide scholarships to teens allowing them to attend
various youth ministry functions in addition to paying for special events
such as nationally recognized speakers.
Thanks to Loffredo Fresh Produce, Abelardo’s on Grand and
PepperJax Grill for their in kind donations of a portion of the food
served at the Fish Frys.
Bake Sale ! April 9 & 10 after masses. Calling all women to get your
aprons out and make your favorite baked goods! Please bring items after
2pm on Saturday. Proceeds will go to purchase backpacks to be given to
Sacred Heart parish families that need assistance when school starts
next fall.
April Meeting: April 19th at 6:30pm. A little service and a little fun ! We
will be making casseroles for the Family Violence Center and working on
a project to request school supplies to put in the backpacks we purchase
with proceeds from the bake sale. Followed by a game of Bunco.
May Meeting: May 17 at 6pm. A salad supper and more service projects
planned. Please join us at our last meeting before our summer break.

HOLY HUMOR The children were lined up in the cafeteria of a
Catholic elementary school for lunch. At the head
of the table was a large pile of apples. The nun
made a note, and posted it on the apple tray: “Take
only ONE. God is watching”. Further down the line
was a large pile of chocolate chip cookies. A child
had written a note: “Take all you want, God is
watching the apples”.
At our Easter Vigil Mass on Saturday, March 26, the
following people received sacraments. Congratulations
to all!!

Con la fiesta del domingo de ramos iniciamos la
semana santa. En esta celebración proclamamos a
Jesús como rey y centro de nuestras vidas. Hermanos
todos estamos llamados a imitar a la gente de
Jerusalén que se entusiasmó por seguir a Cristo.
Todos estamos llamados a decir “que viva Cristo, que
viva el rey, hosanna al Hijo de David, bendito el que
viene en el nombre del señor.” Además de proclamar a
Cristo rey del universo, también vemos a un Dios que
da la vida por la humanidad muriendo en el madero de
la cruz. Ahora estamos viviendo la pascua, que
representa a Cristo resucitado de entre los muertos.
Mis queridos hermanos que la celebración litúrgica
de los días de la semana mayor sea para cada uno de
nosotros una oportunidad para proclamar a Jesús
como Rey y centro de nuestras vidas. El rey que tiene que habitar no solo en
semana santa; sino durante toda nuestra vida. Que el señor Resucitado nos
conceda, la gracia de poder encontrarlo cada día. Felices pascuas de
resurrección.
