Sacred Heart of Jesus Parish

Parishioners will receive tickets in the mail in June...

Arise,” you and I, with a renewed sense of encouragement and hope that God’s love is always present to us, even in the darkest hours. Arise in solidarity as sisters and brothers to support one another, to allow each other to move forward, to face whatever challenges we face– personal, familial, or communal; and “Arise” to not leave anyone behind, most especially those who are suffering, have lost homes, have lost jobs, and even have lost hope.

I come to you, my friends, this day to ask that you rise with the Lord and with me to the challenge before us by continuing your generous support for the programs and ministries that address the needs of our neighbors and friends, and those in our midst whom this pandemic has ravaged so deeply. We arise by standing together in prayerful hope to strengthen the mission of the Church which we form, a people of the light in darkness, a people of hope despite challenge.

I thank you for all that you have done this past year, and I come again humbly and yet boldly to ask for your generous support to this year’s Arise, Annual Catholic Appeal so that we can welcome the light of this dawn that will grow in our midst, risen with the Lord to meet the challenge before us.

Sincerely,

Most Reverend Frank J. Caggiano
Bishop of Bridgeport
