Sacred Heart of Jesus Catholic Church
Hot Springs Village, Arkansas
Last weekend we had two wonderful homilies from Deacon Wally at the 4:00 p.m. Mass and Deacon John at the Sunday morning Masses.  Deacon Wally talked about respect for life and Deacon John about prayer.  Both prayer and action for unborn children and others, are key ingredients for living a balanced and healthy Christian life.

Next weekend (January 28-29), we will offer for sale after Mass "Prayer" candles that you can purchase and use in your homes.  The candles will be blessed on the Feast of the Presentation of the Lord (February 2) which is also known as "Candlemas Day".  You can pick up your candles on that day after Mass or on the weekend of February 4-5.  Candles, as many of you know, are a visable reminder to use that Christ is "Our Light" and the lights of the world.
