VA Hospital Visit - 6 Sep Turnout
for the visit with Veterans at the VA Hospital in Houston was really
light - just the DGK and GK were in attendance with the DGK's
father-in-law coming in for Mass at the hospital Chapel. We were
sorely shown up by 13 Brother Knights form Holy Family Parish in
Missouri City and 5 Brother Knights from Pasadena. We were
outnumbered by other Councils but we escorted 2 Veterans that we had
visited with to Mass. This is really a rewarding experience and
you need to try it at least once. I will chalk this one up to the
late notice.See below for upcoming dates - that may change due to schedule conflicts. |
Eucharistic Adoration Sacred Heart Chapel Please take time to visit with our Lord in Adoration between the hours of 3:00PM and 10:00PM on Wednesdays in
the Chapel. The adoration will start at 3:00PM with the
Devine Mercy Chaplet. All are invited and any time spent will
offer graces and blessings for you, your family, Sacred Heart Church,
and the Holy Catholic Church. Please consider
committing to a specific time slot every week. There are
forms at the back of the Church and Chapel to sign
up. A committed time is not a requirement to attend Eucharistic Adoration. |
VA HOSPITAL VISITATION Future 2015-2016 dates that our Council is scheduled are: Oct 4th, November 1st, February 7th, April 3rd, June 19th. These dates may change as we have quite a few conflicts with our 2015-2016 Calendar. Working with the visitation coordinator
Half a day to show your support of men who gave part of their lives to protect our freedoms is a small price to pay. We will leave Sacred Heart at about 7-7:15AM to car pool to the Veterans Hospital in the Houston Medical Center and should be back in the Sacred Heart parking lot by 12:00noon or earlier.
Make room on your calendar for some or all of these dates on your calendar. Our Veterans deserve you to give back to them for the service to us and our country. |
