All Souls’ Day Candle Lighting 2021


All Souls’ Day, Nov. 2, is a wonderful occasion for us to remember our loved ones who have gone before us and to reflect on the mystery of the Resurrection. In remembering our loved ones in prayer, we affirm our belief that we will someday be reunited with them.

We invite you and everyone as a parish community to come pray and sing together in honoring our beloved deceased on Sunday, Nov. 21, at 3 p.m.

You may send in the name of your loved one via email to be included in our book of remembrance. Deadline for submission is Nov. 17. Unlike past years, candles will be available to all who attend. There is no charge for the candles.

We hope you will join us for this day of prayer, reflection, and celebration.

All Souls’ Day will be celebrated at both daily Masses (7:00 a.m., 12:10 p.m.) on Tuesday, Nov. 2. These Masses will be accompanied with music.

Choir Gets Ready to Sing Again


Dependent upon the continuing downward trends for COVID-19 cases, the long-awaited return of the parish choir, alongside the start of a new children’s choir will coincide with the beginning of Advent on Sunday, Nov. 28.

The children’s choir will support the 9 a.m. Mass each Sunday. Parents should have their children meet in the pews near the organ 30 minutes before Mass. Weekly rehearsals for the children’s choir are scheduled for Saturdays at 10 a.m. at the North Campus. Initial rehearsals are slated for Saturday, Nov. 20 and 27 at 10 a.m. at the North Campus.

The Parish Choir will support the 10:30 a.m. Mass each Sunday. Weekly rehearsals currently take place at 7 p.m. on Tuesdays at the North Campus. The first preparation meeting/rehearsal is on Tuesday, Nov. 16 at 7 p.m. at the North Campus.

To register, please contact our director of music, Philip Jakob, via email.

March 26th: Virtual Stations of the Cross

Due to COVID-19, Sacred Heart will not be hosting in-person Stations of the Cross on Friday evenings during Lent. Instead, we invite you to join us for a virtual presentation. We have produced two different videos – one centers on the notion of Pax Christi, which is a Catholic peace movement promoting peace, justice, reconciliation, and respect for human rights throughout the world, and the other on St. John Paul II’s devotion to and care for creation and the urgent need for the Church to respond to its moral and spiritual dimensions.
