Never underestimate the generosity of caring Sacred Heart parishioners during this past Lenten season. Our Society of St. Vincent de Paul pantry is restocked and ready to assist families and individuals. Thank you for your kindness and for allowing others to have food they need to feed their families. Because of your generosity, we will NOT have a food collection in April. The next collection will be announced in the bulletin. As always, thank you for your support of this important parish ministry.

The Society of St Vincent de Paul Sacred Heart and St. Mary’s Conference assists individuals and families in need. If you know someone or a family in need of resources (food, clothing, rent and/or utility assistance) and lives in the parish boundaries of St. Mary or Sacred Heart, they can reach us by calling and leaving a message at 916-476-8481.
