SACRED HEART SCHOOL NEWS
Sacred Heart School resumed classes on Wednesday, September 6, 2017. A very enthusiastic group of students and staff renewed
their friendships and arrived ready to get to work! Ms. Gilbert hosted our opening Assembly where she welcomed all our new and
returning students.
Our first monthly School Mass was celebrated on Friday, September 8th. This was the feast of the Birthday of Our Lady. The Mass
was hosted by the school staff who provided the ministries during the celebration. The staff members were also commissioned for
their ministries. Each class was presented with its own classroom saint. Our school is under the patronage of St. Mother Teresa of
Calcutta whose feast we celebrated on September 5th when all staff members attended the 12:10pm Mass at Sacred Heart Cathedral.
Many of our extra-curricular activities are about to launch. These include the Panther Lunch-Time Running Club and the after
school Cross-Country Running Club for Grades 2-7. We are in training for a cross-country meet in early October. These programs
are designed to promote healthy living for our students and staff.
Our first Spirit Day took place for Friday, September 15th when students and staff wore their Panther Shirts and displayed a crazy
hat or hair style.
REMINDER-- ”NEEDS OF THE
CANADIAN CHURCH”
COLLECTION The Canadian Ordo indicates that the annual collection for
the Needs of the Canadian Church is taken on Sunday,
September 24, 2017 in support of the Canadian Conference
of the Catholic Bishops. Because the 24th of September falls
in the middle of the Called Together, the Diocesan Annual
Appeal campaign, in the Diocese of Prince George, this
second collection has been moved to Sunday, November
12, 2017.
40 DAYS FOR LIFE
The 40 days for life campaign begins in just
under two weeks! Everyday from September
27th to November 5th. Participants will be
standing in peaceful prayer vigil from 7:00am
to 7:00 pm on 15th in front of the University
Hospital of Northern British Columbia. Since
40 days For Life started in 2007, 13,205 lives
have been saved that we know of two of them
in Fredericton, NB.
We invite you to join us along with the
750,000 other volunteers across the world as
we witness the dignity and sanctity of human
life and pray for an end to abortion. If you are
able to give an hour or more of your time over
the 40 days, we have sign up sheets in the
church foyer or email us at 40day-
[email protected] or phone Angelica @ 250-
301-8135 or Lucy @ 250-962-7454.
EVANGELIZATION AND FORMATION
NEW LIFE IN THE SPIRIT-
A Study of the Acts of the Apostles Come join us in 12 sessions to an experience of faith, study and fellowship at the
Domano Renewal Centre with Fr. Basil Burns. The sessions will start on September
28th at 6:30pm to 8:30pm every other Thursday. A daytime option will be available
at Christ Our Saviour Parish beginning Wednesday, September 27, 2017 at 10:30am.
You are invited to attend whichever session best suits your schedule.
The study is not only meant to gain information, but to also provide instruction on
how to read scripture and how scriptural meditation can enrich our Catholic faith.
A simple reading plan, directions on what to look for, pertinent questions and key
vocabulary words will be provided for every session. The invitation is to have an
open heart and a willingness to look more deeply at the life of the early church and
one`s own life of faith.
Please register on or before Tuesday, September 26, 2017 by 12NN online at http://
www.pgdiocese.bc.ca/live/ or call Teresa at the Diocesan Centre 250-964-4424. This
is meant to be an adult event. A suggested donation of $5 per session is requested
to help defray costs. For those of you who feel called to greater community and a
deeper faith life, please come!
