Sacred Heart Church

About this church

Sacred Heart Church serves New Britain with Catholic Mass in English and Polish. The English Saturday vigil is at 4 p.m. Sunday English Masses are at 6:15, 8:30, and 10 a.m. upstairs; Polish Masses are at 7:15 and 11:30 upstairs and 8:30 downstairs. Weekday Mass is Monday through Friday at 7 and 8 a.m., with Polish Mass Saturday at 8. Confession is available Saturday from 3 to 3:45 p.m. and at 4 p.m. on the Thursday before First Friday. The parallel-language schedule makes both the time and worship space important when planning a visit.

The parish identifies itself in both English and Polish and frames its mission around faith, compassionate service, spiritual growth, worship, fellowship, and outreach. Sacramental formation includes Baptism, Reconciliation, Eucharist, Confirmation, Marriage, Holy Orders, and Anointing of the Sick. First Communion is celebrated annually on the first Sunday of May at 1:30 p.m. after two years of preparation. The sacrament pages explain Catholic teaching as well as logistics, including the relation of Baptism, Eucharist, and Confirmation as Christian initiation and how to request Anointing in an emergency. Prospective members can use bilingual registration, bulletin, contact, and faith-formation resources to follow parish life.
