A LETTER FROM THE CARDINAL

Dear Sisters and Brothers in Christ,
November 12, 2022
In so many ways—large and small—the pandemic has upended our lives together. Families and, in a special way, young people, have faced distressing struggles. The pandemic made our connections with one another challenging and difficult. Exactly in that moment when we truly needed supportive relationships with one another, we found ourselves separated. Sadly, this included the relationships and connections that we have in and through the Church.

Financially we have been hit hard due to this COVID-19 pandemic since we depend upon your weekly donation and there are no public weekly masses. We ask that you please continue to support Sacred Heart in any way that you can. It might be more convenient to do it electronically. You can set it up to make automatic withdrawals and it will make your contribution to our parish on a regular basis or you can make a one time contribution. This allows your continued support to the parish during the unforeseen circumstances such as the one we have now. You can still donate via computer or tablet as well.
