The 40 Days for Life campaign began September 24 and continues until November 2.  During this time, parishioners will have an opportunity to participate in activities which promote respect for life.  Prayerfully consider what God is calling you to do: say a prayer daily for an unborn child, wear a pro-life button; donate weekly to Jackson House; seek out someone who is grieving, sick or lonely.  Stop by the Respect Life display table in the narthex for more information.

This tournament, to benefit Catholic Charities, is looking for players on September 29 at a morning (8:00) or afternoon (1:30) tee time at Maumelle Country Club in Maumelle, Arkansas. A continental breakfast, lunch and dinner will be provided along with first, second and third prizes in a number of flights and contests for prizes on the course.  The individual cost is $75; the other half of the cost will be paid for by our parish Social Outreach budget.  Get applications for teams or individual players at the information center in the hallway of the church or from the Office staff.  Please sign-up soon.

As applications are completed, please return them to the box provided in the information center in the hallway leading to the A & E bulding or the office.

The bieenial Sacred Heart of Jesus Treasure Sale will be held this Friday, September 26, from 7:00 a.m. to 3:00 p.m. and Saturday, September 27, from 8:00 a.m. to 1:00 p.m. in the Lower Hall.

Many, many parish households have assisted with donations, as well as their participation in the various Treasue Sale committee activities.  The 2014 Treasure Sale is promising to be another resounding success.

For those who picked up their T-shirts, we have added a "red ribbon", to wear the day of the walk, to their package.  We will also have them available before the Walk.  Renee Steinpreis, a parishioner, is taking a "group picture."  We will meet Renee close to the bridge, before the walk.  

This year our Walk honors Graham Williamson, a parishioner, as our cancer survivor.  Join us in the Walk to support cancer research through the Medical Sciences of the University of Arkansas.  Make a donation of $35, and register to walk the Hernando Trail, starting at the Cortez Pavilion at 7:30 a.m. on September 27.  No distance is required.  Free fruit, coffee and water will be available before the walk and free hamburgers and hot dogs after the walk. There will also be a silent auction and bake sale.

Please take a yellow brochure found in the narthex to register.  Come join the Sacred Heart Team.  If you have questions, call Jane Kearby at 922-2338.

Your baby is in its fourth month and measures nearly five inches from head to buttocks and has learned to breathe. This is apparent from the regular movements of his chest, inhaling and exhaling small amounts of amniotic fluid. These actions help the lungs to develop and grow. More developed facial muscles may lead to various expressions, such as squinting and frowning.  The baby hears external voices, sleeps and dreams, can grasp with his hands, kick, or even somersaults.  Please continue to pray for this special child of God.

Would you like to meet more of your fellow parishioners?  Join Sociable Six for an opportunity to get to know other members of Sacred Heart.
