Ridgewood Ave. Edgewater, FL 32141 September 28, 2014 Dear Friends, Life can seem sad, especially when we see so many of our friends and loved ones moving on from this world to their eternal reward. In faith we believe in everlasting life, yet we find it so hard to let go, we want to be with those we love… now… to see… to touch… to never let go. In our parish, in our families, we have been blessed with so many good and holy people. Indeed, it can be a very difficult time when a family member is called home to God. Yet this can also be a great opportunity for experiencing God’s grace. During these challenging times, we call upon our faith, and begin reflecting on the many experiences of our loved one’s life. We begin to see with eyes of faith how important this person’s life was in this world and continues to be in the world to come. This weekend I went to visit two former parishioners, Lu Hunter and her daughter Kelly. They are presently living close to family members in Ocala. Kelly with her mom at her side celebrated her 49th birthday. We had a wonderful pizza party followed by 10 frames of bowling. Lu and Kelly Hunter were part of our worshipping community at Sacred Heart for many years. Although they are miles away, they are still part of our family. I still experience Kelly as a sister, and Lu as our mother. As St. Paul reminds GOD’S PLAN FOR GIVING us, nothing can separate us from the Love of God, in Christ Jesus our Week of Sept. 21, 2014 Lord: “For I am convinced that neither death, nor life, nor Stewardship Income Last Week $8,403.00 angels, nor principalities, nor present things,* nor Online Giving Last Week: $715.00 future things, nor powers, nor height, nor depth,* nor Sister Diocese $1,258.00 any other creature will be able to separate us from the Total Offertory Income Last Week: $10,376.00 love of God in Christ Jesus our Lord.” So my friends let us rejoice, “Nothing can separate us from Income Same Week Last Year $6,896.0 the Love of God, in Christ Jesus our Lord, neither death nor life.” Although we may be separated physically from our loved 2nd Collection: $915.00 ones, we have a bond that will never be broken…the love we have Sister Diocese: $3,123.00 for one another in Jesus Christ our Lord, will always keep us Total Offertory Same Week Last Year: $10,934.00 together!

John Francis Murray, C.Ss.R (World Mission Sunday) WEEKLY REFLECTIONS FROM OUR PASTOR OUR PASTOR FROM REFLECTIONS WEEKLY Our Catholic Appeal - 2014 Thank you for your generosity. Sacred Heart Community Total Registered Households 937 Target Pledged Amount Paid to Date $98,768.00 $90,365.00 $77,853.59 Stewardship Quote God has promised to return the gifts that are returned to Him. It is a never ending circle. We receive gifts from God, we return them with increase. Not to be outdone, God returns them back to us. The more we give away, the more we are blessed. This is not the reason stewards give; it is the result of giving. - Author Unknown Sacred Heart Catholic Church and School and St. Gerard Mission __________________________________________________________ 2 Saint of the Week The Pope’s Corner Feast of Sts.

(Vatican Radio, 9-22-14) This Week’s Scripture Meditation: Which son did the Father’s will Jesus encourages us to think - to think about the consequences of our choices, especially in the choices and decisions that will count not just for now but for eternity as well. The choices we make now will affect and shape our future, both our future on earth as well as in the life of the age to come. Jesus tells a simple story of two imperfect sons to illustrate the way of God's kingdom. The father amply provided for his sons food, lodging, and everything they needed. Everything the father had belonged to them as well. The father also rewarded his sons with excellent work in his own vineyard. He expected them to show him gratitude, loyalty, and honor by doing their fair share of the daily work.

  • Testemunhar E Narrar O Martírio Os Mártires E Confessores Da Albânia (1944-1991)
    UNIVERSIDADE CATÓLICA PORTUGUESA FACULDADE DE TEOLOGIA MESTRADO INTEGRADO EM TEOLOGIA (1º grau canónico) ARTA LEKAJ Testemunhar e narrar o martírio Os mártires e confessores da Albânia (1944-1991) Dissertação Final sob orientação de: Prof. Doutor Isidro Pereira Lamelas Lisboa 2019 ᾿Εγὼ εἰς τοῦτο γεγέννεμαι καὶ εἰς τοῦτο ἐλήλυθα εἰς τὸν κόσμον, ἵνα μαρτυρήσω τῇ ἀλεθείᾳ· πᾶς ὁ ὢν ἐκ τῆς ἀληθείας ἀκούει μου τῆς φωνῆς (Jo 18, 37). “Eu para isso nasci e para isso vim ao mundo, para dar testemunho da Verdade. Todo aquele que é da verdade ouve a minha voz” (Jo 18, 37). RESUMO A presente dissertação procura narrar, testemunhar e dar a conhecer quem foram os 38 mártires da Albânia, beatificados em 2016, bispos, sacerdotes diocesanos e religiosos, um sacerdote ortodoxo, um seminarista, uma postulante e três leigos, e a forma do seu martírio tendo como fonte a obra do Padre Zef Pllumi, Vive somente para contar. O estudo não se limita aos 38 mártires, mas evoca tantos outros mártires e confessores, em sentido estrito e alargado, que professaram a sua fé na Albânia sob o regime comunista, entre os anos 40 a 90 do século XX. A partir destes “testemunhos” pretendemos recolher as linhas mestras de uma teologia do martírio para os dias de hoje, em tempos em que se volta a falar de cristianofobia. Partindo do paradoxo entre uma ideologia que quis “calar” a fé e a parresia dos que teimaram confessar a fé, faremos da narração a chave de leitura e de reflexão teológica. Para isso, não podemos deixar de nos situar no contexto histórico em que os factos se desenrolam, para, num segundo momento, melhor entendermos o significado dos factos narrados.
