Today's Gospel is that of the Good Shepherd. Jesus, being that Shepherd, gathers all of His flock into one. If one strays, He gathers it into the fold. As Good Shepherd, He leads and guides us. Let us not disappoint Him.

Sacred Heart Parish Update - with the recent passing of Fr. Donald Baker at Sacred Heart, the diocese has announced that Fr. Terence Kilcoyne, pastor of St. Edward the Confessor Parish in Westminster, will serve as interim Administrator of Sacred Heart, in addition to his pastoral duties in Westminster. In addition, Fr. Jesus Martinez, former associate pastor of Sacred Heart, has agreed to celebrate Mass at Sacred Heart on a limited basis. It is also hoped that as his health improves, Fr. Gerald Dorais will be able to provide pastoral assistance as well. Let us continue to pray for the parishioners of Sacred Heart during this difficult time.
LAST CHANCE - Partners in Charity - as of this printing, we at St. Joseph, have $6480.00 towards our goal of $7000.00. If anyone who has not yet returned their donation, please do so as soon as possible. Thank you.
