There is no key to happiness. The door is always open.
Be A Habitual Miracle Maker
“This is the beginning of a new day. You have been given this day to use as you will. You can waste it or use it for good. What you do today is important because you are exchanging a day of your life for it. When tomorrow comes, this day will be gone forever; in its place is something that you have left behind…let it be something good.”
— Author Unknown
If you would like each day to be a miracle, then begin each one with this little prayer: “Please, God, show me what I might do to make this day different. Please guide me to do what will make this day the best day possible?”
Happy Thoughts
“Remember, happiness doesn’t depend upon who you are or what you have.
It depends solely upon what you think.”
Dale Carnegie
Most people don’t believe it, but it really is possible to think yourself happy. You start with one happy thought followed by another and another until pretty soon you’re stacking them on top of each other, like layers of joy bricks. After awhile, you will have built such a solid wall of happy thoughts around yourself that wherever you go, you’ll radiate joy. And all because one day you made the decision that no matter what, you were going to think a happy thought.
Just think a happy thought.
Then think another.
And another, And another, And another.
It really is that easy.
May your happy thoughts be numerous and always close at hand.
May your day be filled with all things good,

The Story of the Sacred Heart of Jesus
God made us just to love us.
He wants us to love Him back.
He knows that loving Him is the only way we can be truly happy.
For thousands of years people who became close friends of God have been telling us that God’s heart is full of love for us.
A heart means love.
God loved us so much that He came to earth to be born as Jesus.
When He was here, the Heart of Jesus burned with love for all people.
It still does.
To show His great love, artists paint His heart all on fire.
Jesus came to show that God loves even those people who don’t
care about Him.
Jesus was willing to suffer and die on a cross to show God’s love for all.
Remembering this, artists draw a cross above His burning Heart.
When Jesus was hanging on the cross, a soldier pierced his side with a lance.
Blood and water gushed out, showing us again how much He loved us.
Artists place the wound from the lance in the Heart of Jesus.
People who hated Jesus put a crown of thorns on his head, hurting him.
Today people hurt Jesus when they ignore God’s love or hate God.
Artists show that hurt by placing a crown of thorns around His Heart.
Jesus, I love You! I thank you for loving me. I adore Your Sacred Heart.
Fill my heart with more love for You every day.
Let me be like You, loving and gentle to others at all times.
Help me to pray every day for those who do not know You or love You.
I offer You all I do–my prayers, my words, my actions, and my whole self.
Sacred Heart of Jesus! I give myself to You today and forever.
MAY THE SACRED HEART OF JESUS, BE PRAISED, ADORED AND GLORIFIED THROUGHOUT THE WHOLE WORLD, FOR EVER ANDEVER. AMEN.

WOMEN’S SOCIETY: The Women’s Society met on Tuesday, June 12th to proceed to Agolino’s restaurant for the last meeting until September. All present enjoyed the evening with a delicious meal and conversation. The subject was brought up of the Domes painted and it was voted on to have the Women’s Society donate the first $6000 which is half of the price of the painting. This is possible because of the success of all the rummage sales held by the Women’s Society. God’s blessing on all the members for their work and efforts in raising money for this organization. The next meeting will be held on Tuesday, September 11th at the Church Hall. New members think about joining this group.
