Mission:

Catholic Christian men committed to celebrating Christian fellowship, uplift the life and word of Jesus and selflessly and responsibly serve for the greater good of others in our church community.

 

Sacred Heart Men’s Club Evolution

The Sacred Heart Men’s Club evolved out of ideas brought up by several men parishioners during regular brush cleaning events at our new church location.

Preliminary organizational meetings began in December 1998 and by January 1999 about ten interested men gathered at a local establishment to review and outline a proposal which was to be presented to Father Joseph Deane.

After Fathers approval regular club meetings were scheduled for every first Tuesday of the month with our first official one in February. Thirteen members were present and an official officer’s election was conducted. Meetings in March and April have seen membership grow to its present thirty three charter members.

Since our formal installation and club group communion on April 11th , other parish men have approached us and plan to join us.

Although or group is somewhat in an infancy stage, the club has been real actively involved in a number of parish services, projects and fund raisers including:

  • Power washing the exterior of our beloved church.
  • Painting of the C.C.D. classrooms.
  • Brush cleaning the new church site property.
  • Ground s keeping of our current church grounds.
  • Repairing sidewalks and the confession room in our current parish.

  • Sunday Breakfast.
  • Preparing and serving lunch for the confirmation class and families.
  • Repairing a deck for a parish member.
