LIVE THE LITURGY - INSPIRATION FOR THE WEEK
We are all generous, at least to some degree. Most of us
when asked for something -- whether it be our time, our tal-
ent, or our treasure -- assess whether we can "afford" to ful-
fill the request and still preserve our own needs. Have we
ever given the last bit of what we had knowing that we will
have to do without so that someone else can benefit? We all
tend to be a little covetous of our time, talent, and treasure.
There are people throughout history who have given every-
thing away only to find that they have received much more in
return. St. Francis of Assisi is a prime witness. The Scrip-
tures today bring us two widows who do the same. Do we
see in people such as this examples of foolishness or wis-
dom, inspiration, and hope?
Tuesday Bible Study! Our Spiritual Enrichment Program continued its regular Bible
Study session on Tuesdays, in the Sacred Heart Parish Cen-

gram "Priest, Prophet and King" by Bishop Robert Bar-

week. We will start to gather at 12:30 for a brown bag
lunch (bring your own lunch), the viewing and discussion
will begin at 1pm and is designed to last one hour. Everyone
is welcome to join us!

Sacred Heart Catholic Community GOSPEL MEDITATION
November 11, 2018 32nd Sunday in Ordinary Time
In 1 Samuel, God advises the prophet Samuel not to observe
as men see but as God sees. He tells him to "look to the heart."
This is the movement of this Sunday's Gospel reading.
"Beware the scribes," Jesus advises. He points out their public
greetings and "seats of honor," which stands in sharp contrast
to their private greed. For the Jewish people of Jesus' day,
honor resides at the top. Power and prestige created a high
profile back then as it still does today. After his warning, Jesus
turns his disciples' attention elsewhere: a poor widow.
"She, from her poverty, has contributed all she had." While
the scribes donated large sums to the temple, they did so
"from their surplus wealth." This woman -- in her faith and
devotion -- offers "her whole livelihood." Jesus invited his
disciples to see with God's eyes, to recognize a holy life in
people the world overlooks. Here -- in the poor, the vulner-
able, the marginalized -- God waits hidden.
Today's Gospel begs a few questions. What do we see? Whom
do we value? Are we impressed by the pomp and circum-
stance of modern day Pharisees? Do we ignore their self-
righteousness because it looks impressive, even seems some-
what helpful? The point isn't to judge the scribes, of course.
God can see their hearts as well, and those assessments are
firmly his responsibility. The point is to turn our eyes from the
typically honored to the rarely respected. Are we disinterested
in the poverty of the modern day widows? Do we ignore their
faith because we forget to look for it? This Sunday, consider
the widows in your own life. Who can you see with God's

are planning for 90 – 100 local families. Yes… we need
your help in this HUGE endeavor... We have made ar-
rangements with Price Chopper for special gift cards.
These gifts cards are for $15 each and are alcohol and
tobacco exempt. We will give each family one of these
gift cards so that they can purchase a turkey or ham for
their family. If you would like to help us supply turkeys to
our families, you can purchase the cards through us.
Stop by or drop a check or cash (in an envelope, marked
Thanksgiving Turkey) and we will give a card on your
behalf to a family in need. We hope this new plan makes
it easy-peasey, for you, for our food pantry helpers and
for the families who need it. Thank you!
A Prayer for Veterans
Heavenly Father, King and Lord,
You instill in all of Your creation an
order and value.
You call Your children "very good."
We surrender to You
the conflicts that tear your family
apart.
We pray for an end to blindness
that places pride, greed, power, and
selfishness above human dignity
and brotherly love.
We pray in gratitude
for all of those who have defended
peace, virtue, and justice with honor.
We pray especially for those
who have suffered in mind and
body
from the ravages of war.
Let Your Kingdom come!
May Your peace that surpasses all
understanding
reign in our hearts and in our world.
Amen.
Happy Birthday Fr. Busch….
November 18th!
