Sr. Pat's Call to Worship
Now Available on Fr. Joe's Homilies Page
Many in the parish have come to very much appreciate the friendship, hard work and dedication of Sr. Pat at Sacred Heart Church. In particular, the wisdom of her Call to Worship at the beginning of our masses helps us to focus on the mass and enter into it in a special way. Sr. Pat has graciously allowed us to add the text of her Call to Worship to our web site as a PDF file download. You can download and read each week's Call to Worship on Fr. Joe's Homilies page
Catholics Coming Home
If you’ve been away from the church or are drifting
away from it, if you have been hurt by the church, or are
confused or angry because of your Catholic experience,
please consider our invitation to come and talk with us.
We would like to invite those who have left the
Church to come home. There is no obligation. There will
be no pressure. This is an opportunity to share your
stories of why you left and where you are now.
We are presently completing a six week process that we will offer again in the fall. For more information, please see our program statement of purpose and syllabus, or check our weekly bulletin for the latest updates. Also, please feel free to call Sr. Pat at 264-5071 or email her at
