Sacred Heart…24 donors…Goal $6000 Committed…$6889 (114%) Paid…$6289 (105%)
The Diocese of Fort Worth has awarded $119,834 in grants to our 4 parishes for 2021-22. It is the largest amount ever for our parishes. Notification was received this week by Father Matthew.
Included in the grants are assistance in salaries, utilities, and Religious Education.
One of the new positions partially funded by the grants is a part-time minister for CCM (Catholic Campus Ministry) for Tarleton State University students. The program has been led by volunteer leaders since its beginning over 10 years ago. By employing a part-time minister, the program will have more organization and structure for its curriculum and activities, enabling growth and student involvement.
Grants were awarded by the Diocese’s Advancement Foundation, which oversees the Annual Diocesan Appeal.

COVid protocolsEffective immediately, masks are now optional at Mass for all parishes within the Diocese of Fort Worth. Our protocols of enhanced cleaning, sanitizing between Masses, requiring parishioners to sanitize their hands, and maintaining social distancing of at least three feet between individuals and/or families remains in place.
Reception of Holy Communion is allowed on both the hand and the tongue, but please receive at the end of the line if you wish to receive on the tongue. Please be aware that Canon Law dispenses those from the obligation of attending Mass who feel that attendance would jeopardize their health. Anyone who is experiencing any symptoms of any illness should stay home from Mass.
