SACRED HEART

Sacred Heart Catholic Church, located on the west-side of Jacksonville, is a family-like community with rich cultural diversity while remaining one in faith and liturgy. We try to put our love into actions by works of charity through outreach programs. We provide ample opportunities to grow in faith through ministries like Religious Education for children, Youth Ministry, and Adult Faith Formation. We share in the upkeep of the parish by inviting members to participate in stewardship, pastoral, and social ministries. Our Parish School, staffed by the Mercedarian Sisters of the Blessed Sacrament and many dynamic teachers, provides excellent human and spiritual formation for our young people... Our school began in 1960 with portable buildings situated where the current gymnasium now stands. The parish built a convent in 1962 to house the Sisters of Mercy from Clonakilty, Ireland. The Sisters of Mercy educated our children and provided spiritual guidance for our parish for more than 50..
