MISSION STATEMENT
Guided by the Spirit of God, the Roman Catholic
parish family of Sacred Heart of Jesus celebrates a
living faith in Jesus Christ. As a people of God we
are committed to worship in the Eucharist, to
prayer and to an awareness of the needs of local
and global communities as the Gospel message
instructs us. We direct our efforts to promote
excellence in the Catholic tradition of education at
all levels. We are diligent and responsible in
maintaining sound financial and physical resources
to meet current and future obligations. We strive to
see the face of Jesus Christ in every person and to
utilize the diversity of gifts present in our parish
through collaborative ministries and apostolates.

DAILY BREAD FOOD PANTRY
Our Daily Bread Food Pantry collection item for the
month of June is: tuna fish: white albacore. If you
wish to donate please bring the items to Mass and
place them in the baskets provided at the entrances.
We wish to thank all the members of our parish family
who support the Daily Bread Food Pantry through
their volunteer activity, financial donations and
prayers.
CATHOLIC COMMUNICATIONS CAMPAIGN
Communication is the essence of St. John’s Gospel,
for Christ is the Word of God made flesh, not simply a
prophet who was commissioned to convey God’s
message to his chosen people. It is no wonder that
the Catholic Church in the United States celebrates
World Communications Day and holds a special
collection each year to enable us to Share the Good
News “beyond the pew”. Please prayerfully consider
what you can do to support this ongoing work of the
Catholic Church in the Catholic Communications
Campaign to be taken up at all Masses this
weekend.
The rosary is prayed each weekday morning after
the 7:00 a.m. Mass. All are welcome.

Deacon Pat.
LEAVING MESSAGES ON THE VOICE MAIL
When leaving names and telephone numbers on the
RECTORY VOICE MAIL, you should speak slowly
and distinctly. Many times we are unable to properly
get the names and telephone numbers of the callers
because they speak so quickly. One should keep in
mind that the secretary or pastor has to write down
those items in order to call back. Thank you!!!
Please take the time to check out the parish
website www.sacredheartmilford.org for pictures,
information, upcoming events and interesting
links.
