Divine Mercy Sunday We invite you to join us for the
Feast of Divine Mercy, April 8, 2018, at Holy Martyrs in Falmouth. The celebration begins at 3:00 pm and will include Veneration of the Divine Mercy Image, Meditation, Eucharistic Adoration, recitation of the Divine Mercy Chaplet, Benediction, and the Sacrament of Reconciliation. Holy Mass begins at 5:30 pm. All are welcome.
Sacred Relics Of The Saints: Treasures Of The Church Friday April 6, 7pm at Sacred Heart Parish of the Holy Eucharist is presenting a teaching and exposition of Sacred Relics.Father Carlos Martins of the Companions of the Cross will be here with his very special ministry to teach about these holy objects. He will bring with him over 150 relics, some as old as 2000 years. Among the treasures will be relics of St. Therese of Lisieux (the “Little Flower"), St. Francis of Assisi, St. Thomas Aquinas, and St. Faustina Kowalska. A portion of the veil of Our Lady and one of the largest remaining pieces of the True Cross in the world will also be present. In the Church’s history many miracles and healings have been worked in the presence of relics, and many have been healed through this ministry. Please do not miss this opportunity. You are encouraged to bring your articles of devotion and pictures of ill friends/family members to touch to the reliquaries as a means of intercession.
Baptism Parents are asked to attend a baptismal preparation class prior to the Baptism of their first child. Baptisms are scheduled either during or after one of our Sunday Masses. Please call Deacon Dennis Popadak for more information.
If you are interested in becoming Catholic If you are visiting us and are interested in
receiving information on becoming Catholic, please call Georgette Dionne. There is no pressure, just bring your questions about Baptism, Confirmation, and how to receive First Communion. If you feel God tugging at your heart to make a step toward becoming Catholic, please consider calling Georgette.
If you are a Baptized Catholic but are not Confirmed and/or have not made your first Communion Please call the office and let us visit with you so you can find out how to receive the sacraments of Confirmation and Holy Eucharist.
Sacramental Prep for Children We offer a vibrant and meaningful 2-year formation. Classes start in the fall. Catholic youth in grades 7-12, who seek to receive the Sacrament of Confirmation or who seek initiation into the Catholic faith are asked to contact Georgette.
Do you know of someone who needs Holy Communion at home? Catholics who are too ill to come to Mass or are “shut-ins” can receive Holy Communion at home. Please call the office to arrange for Holy Communion to be brought to their home.
Marriage If you are planning to celebrate the Sacrament of Marriage this coming year, it is not too early to begin your preparations. Please remember that it is important to secure the Church 6 months prior to the date of your wedding. Consider having your marriage validated in the Church after a civil marriage. If you are baptized Catholic but were not married in the Church, you should have your marriage validated in the Church before receiving Communion. We at the parish of the Holy Eucharist would like to assist you in that process. Please set up a meeting with Fr. Daniel at 553-7041 for more information on how to raise your marriage to the level of a Sacrament. Annulment Parish of the Holy Eucharist is committed to helping couples heal after a civil divorce. The annulment can be very intimidating since it comes with so many
misunderstandings. We have a ministry to divorced Catholics to help deal with the many difficult situations when divorce becomes a reality in their lives. Call Fr. Daniel for more information.
The Anointing of the Sick, is for all Catholics to bring both spiritual and physical strength. These include those who suffer from physical, emotional, or mental illnesses, who are scheduled for surgery, routine procedures, treatments for disease, physical therapies, or who experience a sudden medical crisis. For those who are in the end-of-life stage or Hospice care, family members should contact their parish priest immediately to have their loved one anointed, as a priest may not be available on short notice prior to death.
Dear Parishioners, The Lord is risen! Alleluia! We welcome all of you, and visiting friends and family to our Easter celebration. We hope that you feel at home in our faith family and experience the presence of Christ here in our midst. This Easter bulletin focuses on the many activities happening in our parish. Take some time to browse through it and contact us if you are interested in becoming a part of any of the ministries. We as a staff want to thank all the many volunteers who played a part in making our Lenten activities and Holy Week happen. Musicians, altar servers, EMHC, lectors, sacristans, cooks and servers for our meals, the youth who helped with the Stations, the RCIA team, decorators...your dedication and service to Parish of the Holy Eucharist is truly appreciated. As we enter the Octave of Easter, may many blessings be with each of you, The Clergy and Staff of the Parish of the Holy Eucharist

Haiti Our Easter celebration is shared with friends in Haiti as our parishes have traveled the Lenten road to this great feast. At this Easter celebration, we were able to offer a gift of $1000 to Meyer and the same to Cyvadier. We also provided assistance to the Marbial parish -- $3000 -- for the school feeding program. It makes a difference and we thank parishioners who have helped.
