Children have a
very special place in the heart of Sacred Heart Parish.
The religious education of our grade school children focuses on three
aspects of our faith: learning about our faith, celebrating our faith, living our faith.
Learning
about our Faith
About every six weeks children not attending a Catholic school meet
for an hour and a half in the rectory on a Sunday. This class focuses
on the major beliefs of our faith on a level they can understand.
We celebrate an Advent Event each year which gives families an opportunity to celebrate this liturgical season in a meaningful way.

Celebrating our Faith
Liturgy of the word is celebrated for children on their level twice
a month from September to May. This is usually held on the first two
Sundays of the month during Sunday Mass. About every other month the
children of the parish are invited to act out the Gospel for the 10:00
Sunday Mass. The children are invited to participate in some of the
ministries of the Sunday eucharist.
Living our Faith
The
youth of the parish make sandwiches for homeless teenagers after 10:00
Mass once a month.
