Mark your calendars now and plan on joining us for one or all of our Lenten Events.

We are at a crucial time for our Today Tomorrow Together Capital Campaign. We are in the middle of the public phase of the campaign. The results so far have been encouraging, but we need to have a big push if we hope to provide easy access to our church.

There are so many ways to stay connected to your parish by just a simple download of myParish app. Why not give it a try today? Call Kate in the parish office, 309-762-2362 and she can assist you.

Sacred Heart Parish continues to grow, and we are always happy to welcome new members! This month, we would like to introduce you to two of our RCIA candidates, Brent and Cyndi Gluck. Throughout Lent, our RCIA candidates will continue their spiritual work, and we will welcome them as full members of the church after Easter.

Sacred Heart is giving you the opportunity to turn back to God by joining one of our Small Faith Sharing Groups for Lent. The program called “Around the Lenten Circle” is based on the Old and New Scripture Sunday Readings

We have a wide variety of events taking place during Lent! Join us for faith and fellowship.

This year's "Sign of the Cross" retreat is a great opportunity to reflect and center yourself during Lent. This event will be held Saturday, March 23, 2019 from 9:15am to 2:00pm.

Please join us Tuesday, March 5th for Mardi Gras! Dinner will be served 5:30-6:30, with games (including Showdown and White Elephant Bingo) until 7:00.

Dear Parishioners, January and February have been brutal months. I write this on a Friday and the prediction for Sunday is snow. That is four Sundays out of five. The snow has inconvenienced everyone. Parish life has been disrupted. We need some spiritual uplift.

The Holy Father said the two “marital goods” of unity and fidelity first of all pertain “to the essence of the Church of Christ”. Society, he said, frequently does not help couples live these virtues.
