As part of Strategic Planning at Sacred Heart Academy, there will be three facilitated listening sessions held in Cebelak Hall from 6:30-8:30pm. The new rescheduled dates are on October 20, 27 and November 17. All parishioners are very much encouraged to attend–this is your parish school. Your feedback is very important input for the strategic direction of Sacred Heart Academy into the coming years. Please note that the strategic planning of Sacred Heart Academy is nested within the strategic plan of Sacred Heart of Jesus parish

We are now processing online donations and other online payments using Flocknote. We will be discontinuing our use of Faith Direct and we need your help to switch your current recurring gift to Flocknote. If you have a recurring donation set up through Faith Direct, you should have received an email with steps to change over. Any questions, please email Laureen Fish lfish@shgr.org

The new window is installed and looks beautiful! Thus far we’ve raised over $50,000 and need $30,000 for another window. Every little bit counts! Donations to the window fund may be dropped in the offering basket (write “windows” on the memo line) or made online through Flocknote here:

As many have already heard, the academy advancement team is taking a new approach to fundraising and sustainability and it doesn’t include an auction! This year we are embarking upon a new venture –
an Academy Annual Fund. This is a replacement for the auction and is intended to raise the equivalent and more to help with immediate operational and financial aid expenses.

The public launch is scheduled for the first week of November and, not unlike the auction, we are seeking out Cornerstone donors who are willing to be early adopters and pledge for three years to help us through this process. To satisfy our need for community and our wish for cultivating the culture of our parish and academy, we will be hosting a party for our entire Sacred Heart community in October. Stay tuned for more details on that! In the meantime, if you or someone you know would like to participate in the annual fund as a Cornerstone donor, please contact Amber Hiske at ahiske@shgr.org

The Sacred Heart Prayer Line would love to pray for you, those in our community or anyone in need. If you would like to submit a prayer request, please click here.  Interested in praying with us?  Join the group here.
