All of us are called to be present in the life of the Church. Participation in parish activities is one way to express God's love. "We are His hands, His heart, and His voice."

There are so many opportunities to be a part of parish life in our collaborative. We invite you to take a look through our various ministries and organizations.

If you are new to the collaborative, this is a wonderful way to meet other people with common interests.
If you have been a member for some time, it is an opportunity to reconnect and deepen your relationship with Christ and with others.

On June 25th, Bishop Robert Reed presided at the 125th Anniversary Mass for Sacred Heart Parish. Following the Liturgy, the bishop rededicated the statue of the Sacred Heart of Jesus in front of the rectory building, and that evening the Sacred Heart community gathered for a celebratory dinner in the Bishop MacKenzie Center. Below are some photos from the evening. Thank you to the 125th Anniversary Committee, all who helped and served at the Mass and dinner, and all who have made Sacred Heart such an amazing community of worship!

Below you will find a slide show of the Stained Glass Windows in the Upper Church, as well as a photo album of the evening.
