Stewardship Moment: “Everyone who drinks this water will be thirsty again.” John 4:13 Jesus reminds us that material things, even something as basic as water, can never satisfy us over the long run. When we build our lives around material possessions we will always want more, and no amount will ever satisfy our desire. True joy and peace only come when we follow Jesus - when we become more “God-centered” and less “self-centered.”

FFF Bake Sale: Next Sunday, March 15th after Mass in the Sacred Heart parish hall. Each FFF family is asked to donate one baked item per family for the bake sale. Funds are being used for FFF activities.

God’s Gift Appeal: Thanks to all our parishioners who have made their gift to the 2026 God’s Gift Appeal. If you have not yet made a gift or pledge, please fill out a commitment card located in the back of the church. Please participate in support of our diocesan church.

Holy Father’s Prayer Intention for March: Let us pray that nations move toward effective disarmament, particularly nuclear disarmament, and that world leaders choose the path of dialogue and diplomacy instead of violence.

Heavenly Wisdom by Venerable Fulton Sheen: “Theological insights are gained not only from between two covers of a book, but from two bent knees before an altar. The Holy Hour becomes like an oxygen tank to revive the breath of the Holy Spirit in the midst of the foul and fetid atmosphere of the world.”
