This Advent season, the Church intentionally prepares for the wonder of the Nativity, the God of the Universe becoming not just incarnate, but an infant born of a woman. Here at Sacred Heart Academy, our special teachers form our students to meet God on the mountaintops and in the manger, and inspire these young Catholics with the striking beauty and awe of our Faith. Support our teachers who foster moments like these everyday, moments that stick with students for a lifetime, by partnering with the SHA Annual Fund for Giving Tuesday!
