Welcome to Sacred Heart Church Sacred Heart Parish lives true to the mission "Grounded in Faith, Focused on the Future." Focusing on the future of our parish church and school enables us to provide for the spiritual, educational, and social needs of the entire parish family and the community we serve. We recently completed our "Extreme Makeover-Parish Edition" stewardship program to solidify the spiritual and financial base of our parish community. The theme, "Not Equal Giving, but Equal Sacrifice, " was recognized on "Pledge Sunday" as over $1, 544, 000 was pledged along with a 12% increase pledged in the weekly offering. As we look ahead to the economic challenges that face us each day, we acknowledge the warm spirit and generosity of our parish family. We welcome you to join us at our weekend Masses and invite you to join us in the activities throughout the year. Sacred Heart Church 405 S Henrietta, IL 62401 Effingham217.347.7177
