I am looking for any
adults who may be interested in becoming Altar
Servers. Serving at the
Altar is not reserved for
kids only. It is also a
great way for adults to
serve in a liturgical
ministry besides lecturing or being an extraordinary
minister of Holy Communion.
If any adults are interested please let me know and I
will be happy to train you in the ministry.

SHO Welcomes Daughter of St. Gianna on July 24, 9am Join
Gianna Emanuela for Mass, followed by a reception at FXN
On Sunday, July 24, Sacred Heart Oratory welcomes Gianna
Emanuela, daughter of St. Gianna. She will be at the 9am Mass
and will speak about her mother's holiness at a reception afterward at Francis X. Norton Center. St. Gianna Beretta Molla
(Oct. 4, 1922-April 28, 1962), an Italian pediatrician, is one of
the Church's lay saints. While pregnant with her fourth child
and suffering from a life-threatening disease, she rejected the
possibility of having an abortion to save her own life and gave
her own to save her daughter, Gianna Emanuela.
Her heroic example, both in life and death, led her to become a
patron saint of the unborn, and she now has a devoted following worldwide. Reports of miracles and graces granted through
her intercession continue to this day.
