MASS TIMES
The entire Church mourns the death of our Holy Father, Pope Francis.
In cathedrals, basilicas, parish churches, shrines, and chapels, the Holy Eucharist will be offered for the repose of his soul. Communities and individuals will ask God to bestow his infinite mercy on the man who served the Church as Bishop of Rome.
This novena has been prepared to help pray for the Pope during this time. The daily novena (link below)---lasting for the novendiales period as directed by the College of Cardinals—consists of a short reading from Scripture or some other ecclesiastical text and some brief prayers, including orations drawn from the Roman Missal and the Order of Christian Funerals.

~ Prayers & Assistance for a FAMILY in Need ~
A school family from Huntington Catholic lost many of their belongings in a recent house fire. Thankfully no one was injured in this fire, but to help offset the costs of replacing those things that were lost, a Go Fund Me account has been set-up. Thank you for your prayers and any help you may offer!
SGO (Scholarship Granting Organization)
SHOW THIS TO YOUR TAX PREPARER!
There is a terrific way to get a large tax break and support our parishes and school through donations to our diocesan SGO (“Scholarship Granting Organization”). The SGO of Northeast Indiana (www.sgonei.org) supports Huntington Catholic School.
Tax Credit The state tax credit makes an SGO contribution especially attractive to donors. In addition to the potential Federal tax deduction for charitable contributions, SGO donations are eligible for a 50% State of Indiana Tax Credit.
Where your Donation Goes Your donation to the SGO of Northeast Indiana designating Huntington Catholic School as the recipient is used to help families with financial need with their tuition costs. Please note that we receive your entire contribution. For example, if you contribute $1000 to our school, we receive $1000 to give as tuition assistance, even though you still get $500 back as a state tax credit.
This seems too good to be true. How it is possible? The State of Indiana has encoded this into law in order to encourage private investment in education.
How Do I Donate? – You can donate online at
https://app.sgonei.org/donations/new
Our school’s Principal, Derek Boone, is available to answer questions and can assist with the donation process. dboone@huntingtoncatholic.org
Please consider making a donation which greatly benefits our school and parishes!
Thanking God ahead of time that His Light may shine before all!
