Welcome! Please browse through Sacred Heart’s website and catch up on the latest news about the parish in general or a special ministry you are involved with. Maybe after reading about a particular organization you will hear your own call to witness and serve Christ with them. Our ministries and organizations have places for many different talents and gifts – yours are needed! Whatever great or small the time you can devote to our parish, you do in His name, and we are grateful for your participation.

Mass will be live-streamed Sundays at 10:30 AM on the Sacred Heart Alamosa Facebook page.

MINISTRY IN THE CORONAVIRUS CLIMATE
As people of Faith, we will continue our ministry of prayer and seeking the face of God during this period. However, we will do our best to limit community spread by following directives from the Federal Government through the CDC, the State Government, and our Diocesan leadership.

1. Daily Masses will continue in the Church to a number, not more than 30, as to allow for social distancing. A sign up will be provided for the days to be sure that we don’t exceed the number. Please make it a prayerful sacrifice if you are cut-off when the number is reached. All who come should be ready to spend extra 10 minutes to pray the Chaplet of Divine Mercy as an appeal to God for all parishioners in this time of need.
2. Sunday Masses will continue to be livestreamed via the parish Facebook Account starting 10:30 am. There is no sign-up available for this because the space needed to have a clear streaming cannot accommodate such number of people.
3. We have a prayer composed for the end of Coronavirus that we can find on the parish website. We encourage all of us to be praying earnestly for God to help us through this troubling time.
4. Funeral masses at this time will hold as needed because we have an obligation to bury the dead. However, families should help us to limit attendance to close family members so that the number of people in attendance do not exceed 50
5. Wedding Masses scheduled, as long as this incident continues, will be held if the couple so wishes. However, they are to limit the number of attendees to not more than 50 people.
6. Confessions will still be held but the face-to-face option is cancelled during this time.
7. Masses at the Nursing Homes will be cancelled during this period
8. Sick Calls, as long as Hospital/Nursing Home Protocols allow will be attended to
9. We will communicate to you if we will continue Religious Education classes after the Spring Break, which runs through the week of 22nd March.
10. The last class for the Adult Sacramental Completion class will still hold as scheduled on March.
11. We will provide for social distancing during the class but the potluck planned after the class is cancelled

Prayer for the End of Coronavirus

O Heavenly Physician, we cry unto you at this time of universal pandemic caused by the frightening Coronavirus. We firstly thank you for the gift of life and our faith in your superabundant care for those you created. At this time, our world is in a state of fear. Our Scientists have not given us hope of cure, our leaders are struggling for the best way to keep us safe and for fear and caution, many of our churches are closed. We your children confess that you are our hope in distress and our comfort in sorrow. Therefore, we cry unto you on behalf of all humanity to look with kindness on those you created in Your image and likeness. Forgive our sins and mistakes that bring harm to us in anyway. Inspire our Scientists to discover a lasting remedy to the deadly effects of the Coronavirus. Protect our medical men and women who step forward to treat us regardless of the risk to themselves and their families. Guide the actions and words of our leaders to seek the greater good of society than the pursuit of political gains. May our Church leaders not succumb to fear but to help us to find you in this difficult time. Above all, increase our faith to know that without you we can do nothing. May the fears of today help bring our world and us to you our Creator, Healer, and Savior. For you live and reign with your Son and the Holy Spirit one God forever and ever. Amen.
