Contemplative Prayer Session

Please join Fr. Canisius on Monday nights at 7:00 p.m. in the Little Church for an hour of prayer, reflection, and adoration. Come experience hope that lifts, embraces and moves through the power of the Holy Spirit as Christ's loving presence encourages, directs, releases... our source of eternal hope. His hope in every situation is reality! Give yourself some quiet time with God at least once a week.   May God fill you with all joy and peace... so that you may overflow with hope by the power of the Holy Spirit. (Rom 15:13)

New Blood Drive Coordinator Needed!

Sacred Heart hosts two Red Cross blood drives each year, one in January and one in July. It takes a team of parish volunteers to make each drive a success by recruiting donors, setting up for the drive, manning the sign-in table, and handing out drinks and snacks. Most importantly, one volunteer serves as a liaison with the Red Cross to make sure everyone is on the same page once the day of the drive arrives. We will be needing a new blood drive coordinator in advance of our January 2018 blood drive. If interested in taking on this role, please contact Christopher Rodgers at general719@hotmail.com or 443-717-0642.
