    Parish Life Ministries

    Sacred Heart is a vibrant and active community with Parish Life ministries helping to sustain the life of the parish through ministering to parishioners whether it be coordinating social activities, providing support to people in need, or helping the parish run smoothly.

    Annulment Case Sponsors: Members of this ministry are asked to help parishioners who are in need of an annulment before they can marry again or simply to get things right with the Church.  Duties include completion of paperwork, becoming familiar with Tribunal rules, and channeling communications to applicants from the Tribunal. Contact: Linda Kelley at 404-876-6537 or lekelley@bellsouth.net

    English to Spanish Translators: It is very important that our Spanish-speaking members receive the same information as our English-speaking members.  We produce our parish bulletin, inserts, posters and most other communications in both English and Spanish.  If you are fluent in Spanish and have email access, your help every week or two is greatly appreciated. Contact Catherine Tarbox at editor@sacredheartatlanta.org.

    Life After Loss: Parish members support families affected by the loss of a loved one. Contacts: Joanne Lyons at joannezlyons@gmail.com or Cindy Jones at mikeandcin@msn.com.

    New Parishioner Welcome Committee: This is a new ministry for 2013, and we are seeking existing parishioners to help welcome newly registered members of the Sacred Heart community. The committee contacts new members, answers their questions and invites them to upcoming events. The committee will strive to make newcomers feel connected and comfortable within our parish. Contact: Valerie Goldston at 404-367-1988 home, 404-309-4898 cell or canda1020@gmail.com.

    Priest Appreciation Committee: Dinners are prepared once a month by volunteers to thank our priests for giving their lives to our parish and to the Lord. Contact: Cindy Jones at mikeandcin@msn.com or 404-217-2629.

    Recycling Committee: Help Sacred Heart do its part to conserve natural resources, save energy and water, and divert material away from landfills.  Members of the Recycling Committee will coordinate cleanup after parish events to ensure that these recycling goals are met.  Tasks will include collecting and sorting items into appropriate bins and running the kitchen dishwasher.  Contact Jerry Pace: jjpace43@comcast.net or 404-872-6960.

    Social Committee: This group plans and provides overall coordination for parish social events and calls upon volunteers to help in preparation, serving and clean-up for these events, which include receptions for First Communion, Easter Vigil, Confirmation, new parishioner coffees. Events also include special parish parties, including the International Festival, Mardi Gras, Parish picnic, Breakfast with St. Nick, and others. Contacts: Stephanie Walski (Chair) at stephwalski@bellsouth.net or (404) 543-0203.

    "Thank you" Ministry: Is your life too hectic to participate in any of the ministries at Sacred Heart? What if there were a ministry that allowed each member to decide when and where the ministry's action takes place? Intrigued? We are looking for people to write notes of gratitude to non-parishioners who attend Mass at Sacred Heart and who contribute to the collection by means of a check. Sacred Heart will provide the stationery, the postage, and the names and addresses of the contributors. We'll even provide you with a sample "Thank-you" note! All you need to provide is a few minutes of your time. You can write a note at any hour of the day convenient for you, at any place convenient for you. If this sounds like the ministry for you, please contact Gail Ronan at 404-288-9883.

    Youth Ministry: This group is open to all teens and the focus is on prayer, social events, service and learning opportunities, in addition to attendance of local cultural and sporting events.  The group is multicultural and invites all to attend.  Contact: Alan McGill at 404-974-2234 or amcgill@sacredheartatlanta.org.
