Dress up as your favorite Saint and enjoy a night of fun for all ages! Hot dogs, chips, and dessert will be provided. Parishioners are needed to decorate a saint/religious themed trunk or table for the event.

Through the years I have subscribed to various periodicals, some for a year or two and others much longer (as such with Mother Earth News). When my father unexpectedly subscribed to Sports Illustrated back in the sixties, my brother and I were elated. I still remember the cover of the first issue we received: Roberto Clemente hitting a home run...

Altar servers, lectors, Eucharistic ministers, ushers and gift bearers are needed at ALL weekend Masses. Please check your schedule and sign up for the ministries you can help with.

“Jesus, looking at him, loved him and said to him, ‘You are lacking in one thing. Go, sell what you have, and give to the poor and you will have treasure in heaven; then come, follow me.’” Too many years ago I was visiting New Mellerrey Abbey outside of Peosta, Iowa.  A Trappist Monastery started by Irish monks in the 1800’s, it is located in the rolling hills near Dubuque, always welcoming to visitors or those who wish to quietly pray or share in their times of prayer throughout the day.  Along with my aunt and great aunt we paid a visit, shared a time of prayer and was invited to eat in the guest dining hall.  (I didn’t hesitate to accept.)  A simple meal (buffet style) embellished with monastic hospitality prompted me to find the cook to thank him. 

Hot dogs, s'mores and new friends! All Boone County Catholic Community 5th-8th graders are invited to our bonfire at Sacred Heart.

Join us for an informational meeting October 10 after the 8:30 am mass in Hanson Hall at St. Malachy.
