The Pope on Volunteerism from RomeReports.com
St. Therese of Lisieux reminds Christians that “nothing is small in the eyes of God. Do all that you do with love.” Leading by example, Pope Francis has shown that little acts of kindness can go a long way. For this reason, he has highlighted the importance of volunteering, and has met with different volunteer groups on numerous occasions. Most recently, he held this private audience for those who assist cancer patients.
"'Good' is accomplished and is effective especially when it is done without seeking recompense and visibility, in the concrete situations of daily life.” - Pope Francis
"This is the most beautiful service we can give as missionary disciples. To prepare the way so that all people may know, meet and love the Lord. FLASH I say: May you always be generous with God and with others: one loses nothing thereby, but gains great enrichment in life.” -Pope Francis
Also in Brazil, he expressed that to be at the service of others is also a part of a Christian's duty.
“I ask you to build the future. Make the world a better place. Please don't see life from afar. Live it. Jesus didn't stay out in a balcony. Instead, He got involved. Follow Jesus' example.”
For those ready to heed the words of the Holy Father's, he himself is a shining of example to follow.

Get Involved! Will you please?
Here at Sacred Heart we really need additional volunteers (please) to participate in many different ministries.
Are you interested? Please pray about becoming more involved.
Can you share your time during Mass to be an Altar Server, Eucharistic Minister, Usher, Greeter?
Questions about your role in one of these ministries can be answered by Fr. Bob and our spotlight on a ministries each week.
This Week's Spotlight
Greeters are the face of Sacred Heart Parish for each person who enters the church. They reflect the welcoming nature of Catholicism –
an acceptance of those who come to know Jesus. In many ways their ministry is the simplest, but it also is among the most personally important. Being greeted by a parishioner reminds you that church is a community, not a group of individuals who happen to be worshipping in the same place. It is that sense of community that builds a parish family and sustains it through good times and bad. For visitors, the Greeter invites them in to, at least temporarily, become part of the community. In addition to welcoming people, Greeters normally select those who will bring up the bread, wine and collection at the Presentation of the Gifts.
As we highlight a ministry options, please email the office at sacredheart@sacredheartportland.org or call during office hours when you decide where you will share time with your church. Thanks be to God for all our volunteers!
