Join us for the observance of First Friday as we begin at 6:30 pm with Exposition of the Most Blessed Sacrament followed by the singing of the Litany of the Most Sacred Heart of Jesus and the celebration of the Holy Mass.  

A priest is available for the Sacrament of Penance during the time of exposition. Please join us in this devotion to which the Lord Jesus promised many blessings for those who observe this day each month.  

The Noon Mass at Sacred Heart Church is not celebrated on First Fridays due to the evening Mass.

The theme of this year's Diocesan Ministries Appeal is
"I Have Called You By Name." The Lord knows us so well and, through His grace, He prompts us to love others in the same way He loves us. Your support and response to the Diocesan Ministries Appeal is a tangible example of how we can help our neighbors, especially those who are in need.

Support your Parish with Online Donations.

A priest will be making “First Friday” visits to those who are homebound.  These visits will be made by one of our priests who will distribute Holy Communion.  He will also be available for the sacraments of penance and anointing of the sick.  Please call the rectory at 972-627-0422 to register your name for this monthly visit by one of our priests.
