Lent is a season of prayer and penance set apart by the Church to prepare us for Easter and to recall Our Lord’s fast in the desert (cf. Matt 4:1-11, Luke 4:1-13). This season of preparation and sanctification can be fittingly accomplished through voluntary amendment of life, acts of penance, and works of charity. Lent is a time to learn to love our souls more than our bodies. Thus, every Christian should make a special effort to practice mortification and strive for holiness during the forty days of Lent.

Sacred Heart is happy to announce that we will be moving forward with another crucial piece of our restoration project–the construction of a handcrafted pipe organ!
Handcrafted to our church’s architecture and acoustics, it will serve as yet another monument to the glory of God. Made possible by a generous gift from the Secchia Family Foundation, work will begin next month with a plan to install the new instrument in the summer of 2025 in time for the conclusion of our year-long Palestrina500 Festival. We are so thankful for all of the generous donations that are making our Parish restoration and the work of our apostolates possible. We ask for your continued prayers and support as we continue our restoration efforts!
