This Lent our parish is participating in 40 Days for Life. There is a holy hour consisting of exposition of the Blessed Sacrament, a hymn, the rosary, a scripture reading, community petitions, and silent prayer. First Friday holy hours will include benediction. Sacred Heart parishioners are praying for life in the church every Friday from Noon to 1 PM. The dates and leaders of the holy hours are as follows:
- March 3 – Deacon Don Siferman
- March 10 – Lorna Ortanez
- March 17 – Fr. Gary Thomas
- March 24 – Olga Kelly
- March 31 – Peggy Montoya
- April 7 – Deacon Don Sifferman
As always during the campaign, there will be a peaceful prayer vigil outside Planned Parenthood from 7 AM -7 PM and parishioners are also encouraged to pray there. For more information or to sign up directly, contact parishioner Anne Marie Chrisoulis at (337) 936-6687 or www.40daysforlife.com/sanjose.
