SACRED HEART CHURCH TROY, NEW YORK
NEW TO THE PARISH – WELCOME! We are happy
to have you in our community and hope that you will enjoy
a truly Christian experience with us. Please call or stop by
the rectory to register (518) 274-1363. This helps us for
sacraments, sick calls or any other assistance you may
need. Thank you!
SCRIPTURE READING REFLECTION Perhaps the most important decision we make in life is the realization is that our contemporary secular culture is incompatible with Christianity. We thus must be alert to the need to constantly be making choices. Just to go along with what the majority of folks think and do is a disaster and a betrayal of Jesus’ offer of salvation. Make no mistake about it. The brothers spoken about in today’s first reading had a choice. They could have avoided personal pain by simply going along with the prevailing philosophy. It might even have seemed that their unwillingness to go along was disturbing the peace. Psychologists tell us that when the chips are down, most people will go with the flow. God sent His son into our world to challenge that mentality. He offers us the graces/strength to successfully resist, no matter whatever it takes to share in His resurrection. As we hear in God’s word today: for the secular mentality, there will be no resurrection.
Sacred Heart Memorial Fund has a Good Purpose
Some of you may be aware of the Sacred Heart Memorial
Fund. For those who are not aware, Father Yanas, along
with the members of the Liturgy and Finance Committees
are pleased to tell you that as of this year, all bequests
made in memory of a relative or friend will be placed in
the Memorial Fund Account and will be earmarked for
refurbishing our pews. As many of you have stated, this
project is long overdue and is now a top priority. For your
convenience, Memorial Fund Envelopes are available on
the bulletin table, or at the rectory, with the program at a
funeral, and most times during the wake service.
