Sacred Heart Catholic Church

About this church

Sacred Heart Catholic Church in Burwell, Nebraska, celebrates Mass on Sunday at 8:30 a.m. Weekday Masses are held Thursdays at 10:00 a.m. and on the second and fourth Wednesdays at 5:30 p.m. Holy day times are announced separately, and confessions are listed as to be announced or by appointment. The parish belongs to the Diocese of Grand Island and is a mission of Our Lady of Perpetual Help Church in Ord, so Saturday evening Masses are offered in Ord rather than Burwell. The current brick church was dedicated in 1915, and Catholics have gathered in the area since the 1880s.

Religious education (CCD) meets Wednesdays at the Parish Center, with preschool through 6th grade from 4 to 5 p.m. and 7th through 12th grade from 6:30 to 7:30 p.m., with supper at 6. Parishioners help with Mass as lectors, servers, Eucharistic ministers, ushers and gift bearers. Other groups include the Parish Council, the Catholic Women's group (CCW), a Rosary Chain, the Knights of Columbus, and a Confraternity of Christian Mothers that prays together after Mass on the first Sunday of the month. Families seeking baptism or marriage preparation, which should begin at least four months ahead, are asked to contact the parish office at 308-346-4190. The weekly bulletin is posted online under the Ord parish, and online giving is available. The church is at 757 I Street; confirm Mass times on the website before visiting.
