Parish staff just came from our Deanery Meeting which was held at the Gardens of St. Francis. They informed us that their new memory care units were filling up fast and are inviting parishioners to check them out. Do you have a loved one who may be in need of this level of care?
EdChoice is at a serious risk of elimination and we need help organizing a unified voice! St. Johnβs Jesuit is sending a bus of parents and students who are either on EdChoice, or waiting for EdChoice, to testify in Columbus this week. This opportunity is open to all EdChoice families, not just SJJ families so please spread the word! The bus will leave SJJ on 2:00 PM on Thursday. Testifying at the hearing will take place at 5:00 PM on Thursday and the bus will return families to SJJβs parking lot after testifying. We need as Catholic, Christian, and private schools in the area to have a unified voice! To reserve a spot, fill out the registration form found here forms.gle/DLki1J8ALffnbF5h6 . This form is just to capture contact information and relay information important to Thursday. For more information, email Katie Sliwinski, Director of Strategic Initiatives and Human Resources at ksliwinski@sjjtitans.org. #AMDG #BeAVoiceForChoice
We are very sorry to announce that Religious Education classes for February 16 are cancelled due to a large number of catechist absences as well as a number of student and catechist families with contagious illnesses.
If you are healthy, please ensure you attend Mass tomorrow. If not, please stay home and get well soon.
Next Sunday, February 23, all RE students need to attend the 9:45 am Mass at Sacred Heart and remain after for family activities in the church. Students must be accompanied by their parent or guardians.
Thanks and God bless,

Looking for a fun way to support our Deanery School? Take your family to see GREASE put on by Cardinal Stritch. Parishioner, Brianna Seaman, is cast as one of the Pink Ladies.
What burdens are you carrying? What do you need to bring to your shepherd?
Mass, Eucharistic Adoration, and Reconciliation are all here so you can shed the excess in your life. Bring it to Jesus in the Holy Eucharist. Bring it to the sacraments. Bring it to Epiphany of the Lord.
We remind you to please pay attention to the forecast heading into Wednesday and Thursday.
Wednesday 6 pm Mass policy is that Mass is cancelled if Oregon or Toledo Public schools are cancelled on Wednesday. Since the snow is supposed to start late Wednesday afternoon, please consider your safety to/from Mass. If it does not seem safe, please stay home.
For Thursday morning Mass and Thursday Adoration, if Oregon or Toledo Public Schools have either a delay or cancellation, both Mass and Adoration are cancelled.
Use your common sense. If you live in an outlying area or the roads are worse in your neighborhood, don't risk it. We need our parishioners safe, first and foremost.
Catholic radio and television stations air Mass every day so please check out Annunciation Radio or EWTN to listen to/watch Mass if Mass is cancelled or you cannot safely get to Mass.We're gearing up for our heaviest snowfall of winter! Here's the snowfall estimate for Thursday morning - 6" in some areas! The snow is set to start late Wednesday afternoon.

8:30 am Mass at Sacred Heart is cancelled due to the weather.
Per our inclement weather policy, if Toledo Public or Oregon Schools have a delay or cancellation, morning Mass is cancelled.
Please be safe today and hope to see everyone for this evening's Pre-Lenten Fish Fry at 5 PM on our St. Thomas Aquinas campus. Please be mindful of the parking area between the school and gym as those spots are for Glass City Academy use until 6 PM.
Have you marked your calendars yet?
Please note that all Religious Education students and RCIA families are expected to attend a performance of their choosing. Attendance will be taken for Religious Education students.
Oregon Public Schools are delayed tomorrow due to the weather. As a result, 8 am Mass as well as Adoration at our St. Thomas Aquinas will be cancelled for Thurs. Feb. 6.
Please stay home and stay safe.
Be safe Father.
With possible snow/freezing rain headed our way, please check the news stations tomorrow before heading out for Mass or Adoration on Thursday, Feb. 6. If either TPS or Oregon school are delayed (or cancelled) then both Mass and Adoration will be cancelled.
Weather predictions have called for the storm starting anywhere between 4-6 pm this evening. Please keep this in mind when deciding whether or not to attend 6 pm Mass tonight.
God wants you safe, first and foremost!
Mass is cancelled and so is Adoration
We should have explained this to Fr. Melwin. The last thing he wants is 6 more weeks of winter!
Have a blessed Feast of the Presentation! Thanks to the abundance of you who stayed after Masses this weekend to have you throats blessed in honor of tomorrow's Feast of St. Blaise.
Fr Melwin...thanks for your homily. ππΌ
