The Basilica of 

the  Sacred Heart of Jesus

October being Respect Life month, we will have a Holy Hour for Life
at 3pm, the Hour of Mercy, on Sunday October 16, 2022.  All are welcome!

Starting the week of September 12-16, we will be changing daily Mass times.  More often, daily Masses will be celebrated at 12:15pm. 

Why the change?
This year it has become apparent that 12:15pm is a good time for many parishioners of diverse schedules and ages.  A few months ago, when we had started offering a Monday daily Mass at 12:15pm the attendance was significant. It still is.   Neighboring parishes have morning daily Masses but few or none offer 12:15pm as an option.
Moving Forward
To be honest, 12:15pm on weekdays is not the easiest time for priests to celebrate Mass, particularly when there are all day conferences to attend.  Sometimes, we will need to cancel a daily Mass in order to have a funeral Mass.  We will note that in the parish bulletin and/or announce it at daily Masses before the day of the funeral.  As is tradition here, first Fridays, Fridays of Lent, national holidays, Wednesdays during the school year, Holy Days of Obligation, Ash Wednesday, the Feast of the Sacred Heart, Forty Hours, and other special days will have their own unique schedules.  But as for the week of September 12:

12:15pm- Monday September 12
12:15pm- Tuesday September 13
8:30am-- Wednesday September 14
12:15pm- Thursday September 15
12:15pm- Friday September 16

Check the bulletin regularly to see when daily Mass will be celebrated on a given day.
