The guild facilitates community activities and encourages a dynamic spiritual life of parishioners by supporting our parish priest and focusing on the beautification and maintenance of the altar and the church.

We put our Catholic faith into action by performing this Work of Mercy for families who have lost a loved one. If you don't cook, we can always use extra hands to help set up, serve, and restore the parish center.

For the past two summers, we have sponsored a Totus Tuus Missionary Team to spend a week at our parish, sharing their love of Jesus with the children and youth of Sacred Heart Church.
Many celebrations take place in the parish center throughout the year. Altar Society is always there to offer hospitality and bring our parish community together.
We sponsor a 70+ year old woman in Ecuador with a monthly donation and additional monetary gifts throughout the year.
At the beginning of August and during spring break, the Altar Society holds a rummage sale. So, save up your unwanted items and watch the bulletin to know when we start accepting donations. Thank you to all the volunteers who always help make our rummage sale a success!
