The Basilica of 

the  Sacred Heart of Jesus

 
 Sacred Heart Parish is on a journey to know, love, and serve Christ in our parish community. Together we must embrace Christ’s vision for missionary discipleship so our parish can thrive and be a place for others to grow together in faith. 
 The very first step in this process involves assessing our greatest strengths and opportunities, and that is where the Disciple Maker Index (DMI) comes in! The DMI is an important survey tool that invites you to reflect on your discipleship journey here at Sacred Heart Parish. The Disciple Maker Index is designed to:
 . 

• Invite parishioners to reflect on their journey of discipleship.
• Enable parish leadership to make data-driven decisions. 
• Help parishioners grow in their faith.

 
The 10–15-minute survey can be accessed through an online link starting on October 15  and will ask you to reflect on your own spiritual growth and enable you to provide your perspective on our parish’s efforts to help you grow in relationship with Christ. All responses will be confidential, and the parish will only receive information about the community as a whole. We will share the link with you a bit closer to the launch of the survey. Paper surveys will also be available for those who do not have the ability to complete the survey online.
 
Together we must embrace Christ’s vision for missionary discipleship so our parish can thrive and be a place for others to grow together in faith.
 
Please continue to pray for this intention and for the growth and protection of our parish. 

“One thing is certain, if the future Conewago remembers her God and her religion as faithfully as did the Conewago of the past, there is no danger, whatever may happen. The history of the church has shown that she is equal to any emergency, and suits herself to the changes of time and customs, to the revolution of governments, of nations and of ages. She goes on forever, and in her there is no change or shadow of vicissitudes.”

--John Timon Reily
