Sacred Heart Catholic Church

Embry Anne and Adeline Marie received the waters of Baptism and they are now children of God and members of the Holy Catholic Church. Congratulations to the Jordan Family, Samuel Foster and Lacie Briana, and the Godparents Callie Marissa Newman and Corey Selover, thank you for doing God's will. 

Sacred Heart Parishioners will continue praying for the Jordan Family, we are blessed to have you as members of this Parish. 
 

Dear Sacred Heart Parishioners, we just received this info and clarification from the Diocese of Biloxi.

Our current Covid decree states, “As a rule, those physically unable to come to Mass, those who are ill, those whose health would be endangered by their presence at Mass, or those caring for someone whose health would be endangered, are not bound to physically participate in Mass.”

Therefore the health department statement is enough for folks 65 and older to consider themselves “endangered” and thus not bound to attend Mass.

Mississippi is experiencing a significant rise in COVID-19 cases and hospitalizations. Numerous outbreaks have been identified in youth camps, faith-based gatherings, funerals and social events.

Due to the rapid increase in delta variant cases and outbreaks, combined with the low overall vaccination rate in the state, MSDH is making the following recommendations through July 26, 2021.

All Mississippians 12 years of age and older should receive COVID-19 vaccination.
All those who are unvaccinated should wear a mask when indoors in public settings.
All Mississippi residents 65 years of age and older should avoid all indoor mass gatherings (regardless of vaccination status).
All Mississippi residents with chronic underlying medical conditions should avoid all indoor mass gatherings (regardless of vaccination status).

Note: this is copied directly from the MSDH website.

Sacred Heart Parishioners:
Our 2021 VBS Camp was a huge success.  We had 97 campers and 34 volunteers.

Thank you for your donations, your support and your prayers.

We truly appreciate you, Parishioners, for always helping and supporting your ministries.

Special thanks to Mrs. Angela Foster,
Mrs. Alice Ball and the VBS team for a wonderfully, successful VBS Camp this year!

Congratulations to our young people and their families as they prepare to graduate from High School. 



Thank you to the Ladies Auxiliary for their help and service in preparing and planning this wonderful event.


During the reception our brother, Ray Lacy, who is in charge of the Youth Ministry at the Diocese of Biloxi, gave a talk to these young people. 

The graduates received a Crucifix with the Medal of St Benedict as a gift from Sacred Heart Parishioners. This Crucifix wants to remind these young people who they are and who they have been called to be.  It also reminds them that Sacred Heart Parish is their Home Parish and that they have people who care for them and that they will be praying for them.


May God continue guiding and protecting these graduates. 

Thank you so much to all the young girls who helped during the Crowning of the Blessed Virgin Mary at all Masses this past weekend. 

May the Blessed Virgin Mary, the Mother most pure, make our hearts only for Jesus.

Congratulations to the Parishioners, and their families, who received the Sacrament of Confirmation on March 10th, 2021.

Thank you to the teachers Mr. Rick and Mrs. Pat Clement for their help and their hard work on preparing these young people for the Sacrament of Confirmation.

On March 6th, Edgar and Dot Hull received the Sacrament of Marriage.  Congratulations to both of them.  They are a true example for this Parish and this community.

May God continue blessing you with His love and His kindness.

Thank you to Deacon Warren and his wife Linda. It was great to have both of them at Sacred Heart Parish for this wonderful event. 

Congratulations to the Hull Family. 

The Catholic Diocese of Biloxi gives out the Lumen Christi Award each year.  Each Parish of the Diocese sends in their names, of the parishioners, who will receive this award.  We are very pleased to announce Sacred Heart Parish's 2020 Lumen Christi recipients:  Paul and Margery Thompson.

Both of them have been extremely helpful in our community, in our school and in our Parish. They have been very generous with their time and their resources.  They truly reflect the Light of Christ in the way they live their lives. 

We are very blessed to have the Thompson Family in our Community and in our Parish. 

Congratulations Paul and Margery Thompson. 

May God bless you!
