3 From the Pastor & Liturgy FROM THE PASTOR New altar cloth The altar cloth that is on the altar now was purchased in Greece during our recent pilgrimage. It was made in Greece and has what is known as a Greek key design. This is a wonderful keepsake from our pilgrimage that will be in our parish for a long time. Staff Transitions As I shared with you in February, there will be some staff changes beginning with the new parish year on July 1. Please read last Sunday s bulletin, if you haven t already done so, to find out about some changes that are coming in our staff. I will keep you informed of other staff changes as they occur as we move forward Let us continue to work together to build up the Kingdom of God here at Sacred Heart. RIL 14th MASSES ON FRIDAY Since May 4 is the first Friday of May, we will have Mass at 6:30 AM and 8:45 AM. Our parish school students and staff will participate in the 8:45 AM Mass on Friday, May 4. Since this is the first time the school will attend Mass in May, the school will celebrate May crowning after Mass. Everyone will be invited to gather outside the gym entrance to the school to crown the statue of Mary and leave flowers. MAY CROWNING NEXT SUNDAY Next Sunday, May 6, we will celebrate May crowning at the 11 AM Mass. All children in the parish are invited to bring flowers for Mary and join in the entrance procession. The statue of Mary will be crowned, and we will ask for Mary s intercession during the month of May. PRAY-ERS IN MANY LANGUAGES NEEDED We will celebrate Pentecost May 19 and 20. Our tradition at Sacred Heart is to pray Pentecost Mass in a variety of languages. If you speak a language other than English and would like to participate, please call the Parish Office with your name, Mass you will attend, and the language you will pray. Let us raise our many voices in thanksgiving to the Holy Spirit. FIFTH SUNDAY OF EASTER This weekend, we celebrate the Fifth Sunday of Easter. The readings today are powerful reminders that Christ is the vine and we are the branches. Growth occurs when we remain in him and bear fruit. As his disciples, we are called not to just any sort of love, but the self-sacrificing, critically aware love that Jesus showed those who journeyed with him in life. (2018 Sourcebook for Sundays, Seasons, and Weekdays, 192) This weekend, we celebrate First Communion at all three Masses. On Saturday, May 26, at the 5 PM Vigil Mass, we will celebrate the sacrament of Confirmation with teenagers and adults. Please pray for these parishioners as they continue their journey of initiation. FEAST OF SAINTS PHILIP AND JAMES The feast of Saints Philip and James is on Thursday, May 3. Although few details are known about St. Philip, Scripture portrays him as one who leads others to Christ. St. Philip introduces his friend Nathaniel to Jesus, and points to Jesus as the source of nourishment in the feeding of the five thousand. He also highlights Jesus as the path to the Father in the Last Supper account. St. James the Lesser not to be confused with St. James the Greater [he is honored on July 25] was gifted with a special appearance of the Risen Christ [see 1 Corinthians 15:7]. Throughout history it was believed that he authored the letter of James, but recent biblical scholarship considers this to be unlikely. Both Sts. Philip and James died as martyrs, shedding their blood for the sake of the Gospel. They are most likely celebrated together because the Basilica of the Twelve Apostles in Rome is dedicated to them. (2018 Sourcebook for Sundays, Seasons, and Weekdays, ) RELICS OF SAINT PIO OF PIETRELCINA Come venerate the relics of Saint Pio of Pietrelcina on the occasion of the 50th anniversary of his death (September 23, 1968). The relics of Saint Padre Pio will be in the Archdiocese of Seattle next Saturday, May 5, 2018 at St. James Cathedral. Archbishop Sartain will celebrate Mass at 9 AM. Veneration of the relics will be from 10 AM until 4:30 PM. All are welcome.

6 Administration & Stewardship ANNUAL CATHOLIC APPEAL 2018 COMMITMENT SUNDAYS MAY 6 MAY 13 MAY 20 What is the Annual Catholic Appeal? The Annual Catholic Appeal is our chance to participate in the ministry of the wider Church in Western Washington the Archdiocese of Seattle. The Archdiocese serves 19 counties covering nearly 30,000 square miles, ministering to over 600,000 registered Catholics in 172 parishes and missions. With our pledge to the Annual Catholic Appeal, we help fund over 60 programs and services of the Archdiocese. We work together as a larger Church to accomplish what we cannot do alone as a single parish. What does the Annual Catholic Appeal mean for Sacred Heart Parish? This year, our parish goal for the Annual Catholic Appeal is $213,000. We d like to raise an additional $30,000 over that goal for our Capital Maintenance and Improvement Budget. When we exceed our goal, the overage returns to Sacred Heart in the form of a rebate. Our rebate from the 2017 appeal was almost $40,000. In recent years, we ve used that rebate to accomplish a number of facility improvements. How do we participate? By now you should have received a letter from Archbishop Sartain containing a brochure, pledge card and return envelope. Soon, you will also receive a letter from Fr. Steve with another pledge card and return envelope. Please follow these steps: Complete one of the pledge cards and mail it back right away in one of the return envelopes. Or bring your completed pledge card in the return envelope to Mass during the month of May and place it in the offering basket. Or make a pledge on-line at seattlearchdiocese.org. There s a link on our parish website, sacredheart.org. No matter how you pledge, be sure to indicate that your gift is for Sacred Heart, Bellevue. And don t forget, your pledge can be paid over a ten month period by cash, check, EFT, debit/credit card, or stock. The archdiocese will send reminders. How much should we give? Last year at Sacred Heart, 401 parish households gave an average of $626 to the Annual Catholic Appeal. Our goal this year is to increase the number of parish households that pledge to the appeal. If you have not pledged before, this is the year to start, and we would encourage an initial gift of at least $365 or $1 a day for the ministries of the Catholic Church in Western Washington. However, every pledge, big or small, is gratefully received, deeply appreciated, and vital if we are to make our goal. The important thing is that every household participate. Your gift makes everything possible. We are many parts, we are all One Body and the gifts we have, we are given to share I grew up with this song by Marty Haugen from 1980 and I have spent a lifetime exploring the Godgiven giftedness of human beings. I find our uniqueness fascinating! At the core of Christian stewardship is the belief that God gifts each one of us uniquely with a whole panoply of talents, skills and abilities. And those gifts are given so that we can uniquely contribute to life and society to build up the reign of God on earth. Mature Christian stewards understand their personal responsibility to name their gifts and claim them as God-given, so that they can effectively aim those gifts out into the world to have the most beneficial impact. The parable of the talents should speak to all of us. Here at Sacred Heart Parish, the Stewardship Commission seeks to help all parishioners explore their unique gifts through a simple inventory called Strengthsfinder. All our parish leadership groups are using this tool, as well as adults preparing for Sacraments of Initiation. Our hope is that every parishioner will consider using this assessment to grow as faithful stewards. It is a simple process that begins by contacting me at the parish office to pick up the Inventory. You complete it on-line, which takes ~ 30 minutes and you receive feedback on your top 5 strengths immediately following. Then, we can talk about your results and what unique contribution you can make with your life as a Christian steward. Please contact me to learn more. Carol Guenther, Pastoral Associate, or cguenther@sacredheart.org.
