 ALL PRAYER GROUPS & NOVENA ARE SUSPENDED TILL FURTHER NOTICE 

The Holy Rosary

At Sacred Heart, parishioners pray the Rosary at the following times.

Praying the Rosary is a wonderful way to prepare for Mass, and it is a most fitting meditation for us after Mass.

 Our Lady of Perpetual Help Novena

At Sacred Heart Parish, we hold a Novena to Our Lady of Perpetual Help. Since Sacred Heart Parish is in the care of the Redemptorist Fathers, devotion to Our Lady is very much a part of our parish life. The Redemptorists Rule of Life as written by St. Alphonsus requires that Redemptorists have an extraordinary love and devotion to our Blessed Lady and to promote this devotion to all in their care.

Each Tuesday, after the 11:00 am Mass we have Novena Devotions to Our Lady of Perpetual Help. Come and be strengthened and blessed by Our Lady.

Never was it known that anyone who fled to her for protection, or sought her intercession was left unaided. St. Bernard

Exposition & Adoration of the Blessed Sacrament

  • Saturday – 9am – 3pm

Father Browne Memorial Brick Prayer Garden

  • A prayer garden built mainly by parishioners in memory of a beloved former pastor, Fr. Francis Browne, C.Ss.R. The garden sits in a peaceful location surrounded by ancient oak trees with colorful flowers. The memorial bricks are laid in the design of the San Damiano cross, and in the middle of the cross sits an earthen color water fountain.
  • Many parishioners find the prayer garden a peaceful place to pray and experience the presence of God

The Centering Prayer Group

Centering Prayer helps you seek the small, still voice of God. Centering Prayer helps you find God within and hear with the ear of the heart. Through Centering Prayer, you will learn about prayer as a relationship, how to deal with thoughts during prayer and how to deepen your relationship with God. You will also have an opportunity to experience the prayer together with others.

  •  Thursday evenings – 6:30 – 8:00pm in the Chapel

 Cursillo

The Cursillo Movement is both a movement and method. The purpose of the movement is to create small groups of Christians that will evangelize their environments with the Gospel spirit. The purpose of the method is to help a person to live what is fundamental for being a Christian by committing themselves to the spiritual aids the Church offers in order to grow in piety, study and action.

  • Cursillos are held twice per year (in the spring and in the fall) at San Pedro Retreat Center in Winter Park
  • Ultreya meets monthly for Mass, fellowship and food (see bulletin for date)

The Traveling Mother of Divine Mercy

Every week a new home is being visited by the Traveling Mother of Divine Mercy to promote praying of the Rosary and the Chaplet of Divine Mercy by families, together with their family members and friends.

  • For more information please call 386-848-1787

The Legion of Mary

The Legion of Mary is a worldwide association of Catholics who, with the sanction of the Church and under the powerful leadership of Mary, the Mother of God, have formed themselves into a Legion for service to the Church. During our meetings, we pray the Rosary and other prayers, discuss the previous weeks work and plan future work.

  • Tuesday at 9:00am at Sacred Heart Parish, the Our Lady of Perpetual Help Praesidium of the Legion of Mary meets in the Parish Office Conference Room.
