Our Lady of the Sacred Heart Church is a welcoming Roman Catholic Parish Community.  Our mission is to bring people closer to God through meaningful worship, through grace-filled community activities and through service to His children through the Corporal and Spiritual Works of mercy.  We endeavor to build upon the God-given talents and abilities of each of us to serve all of us.  
We celebrate the welcoming hospitality of this parish; its inclusiveness and respect for the cultural, thnic, racial, political and economic diversity of its members.  There are 37 different nationalities composing the magnificent mosaic of the church of Our Lady of the Sacred Heart.

Devotions to the Sacred Hearts of Jesus and Immaculate Heart of Mary are central to our sharing of grace with one another.

At the present time, the pastoral care of the parish of Our Lady of the Sacred Heart is entrusted to the priests of the New York Congregation Oratory of Saint Philip Neri. The spirit of “joyful discipleship”, which distinguished the first disciples of Jesus and St Philip Neri himself, inspires our community.

 NAME FOR MERGED PARISH
        As we continue on this journey as a merged Parish family, you,  the members, were asked to suggest  a name for the new Parish.  With gratitude for the prayerful thought that you brought to this important step, we would like to share  all of the many suggestions, listed below,  that have been offered by one or more of you. 
The three suggested most often were :  Holy Family, St. Philip Neri, and many variations retaining the current parish names of Our Lady of the Sacred Heart/St. John the Baptist. 
        Please prayerfully consider one of these three choices and forward your suggestion (one per person) by email or in writing by February 28.  We will forward the three names and your preference to the Cardinal who will finally decide on the name.   Be blessed, Fr. Tom Kunnel,  C.O.
