Sacred Heart of Jesus Diocesan Shrine

“The evening was just filled with the presence of Our Lady and Jesus Christ.”
- 100^th Anniversary Attendee

Words cannot explain well enough the success and spiritual fruit surrounding the 100^th Anniversary of the Grotto on our Sacred Heart campus. The North American Lourdes Volunteers shared an incredible presentation and many who attended were able to touch the actual rocks from Lourdes France that Our Lady rested on in her apparitions back in 1858.  

We would first like to sincerely thank our priests and clergy who attended, who we know are called in so many different directions during their day. We thank them for their attendance, support, and desire to shepherd souls by bringing so many Sacraments to this holy evening of healing. Please pray for them and pray also in gratitude for all that they do.
