Describe your faith community
Many summer visitors who enjoy their lake cabins and homes. Very uplifting liturgies and a beautiful choir that sings most Sundays.
“When visitors come to our parish they will …
… find a beautiful church with lovely, well-kept grounds. New windows above the altar bring in natural light to it. Very friendly and welcoming church members.”
In what ways does your parish proclaim the Gospel with its actions?
Help to run a food pantry and charity outreach to the community. Adult faith formation programs help parish members live their faith.
What is something people might not know about your parish?
Between October and April, on the first Sunday of the month, everyone is welcome to stay for “Finger Food Sunday” after the 8 a.m. Mass. Parishioners are invited to bring a dish to share, but it is not required. It is a great time of hospitality, fellowship and friendship — not to mention there is a great deal of delicious food for a fabulous breakfast.
In the Welcome to Our Parish feature, Jan. 12 issue of the Superior Catholic Herald, Sacred Hearts of Jesus and Mary, Crescent Lake, is listed as being established in 1957.
As parish member Kathy Okonek clarified: “Sacred Hearts Church began (in) 1905, with Mass being said in homes whenever a priest was in the area. The first church was built in 1909. The current church building was built in 1957. A large addition was built sometime during (the) 1970s.”
