Our Mission Statement
is based on Jesus' Great Commission given in Matthew 28:19-20*:
"We, the members of Sacred Heart Parish, are dedicated to serving Christ by bringing the fullness of Catholic truth to the Gladwin community. We help good Catholics become holier Catholics, bring former Catholics ‘home,’ and lead non-Catholics into the fullness of the Faith."
*Matthew 28:19-20, "Go therefore and make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit, teaching them to observe all that I have commanded you; and lo, I am with you always, to the close of the age."

A Prayer for Sacred Heart Parish:
Sacred Heart Parish is composed of intentional disciples like me.
I help make it what it is.
It will be welcoming if I open the door for others.
It will be holy if I strive for sainthood.
It will do great works if I volunteer.
It will defend the defenseless if I do.
It will be prayerful if I pray every day.
It will be knowledgeable of the Faith if I study it.
It will help the poor if I am generous.
It will share the Catholic Faith if I am fearless.
It will bring others into worship if I invite them.
Its pews will be filled if I attend Mass faithfully.
It will be a parish filled with faith, hope, and love if I, who make it what it is, am an intentional disciple.
Therefore, with the help of God, I now dedicate myself to the task of being all the things that I want Sacred Heart Parish to be.
Amen.
