Parish Reunion - June 22nd, 2025

BURN BABY BURN

This year’s Sacred Heart Parish Reunion is Sunday, June 22nd, after 11:00 a.m. Mass.  It begins with a procession from the church to the green space followed by Benediction for the Feast of Corpus Christi. 

We are excited to also celebrate the burning of the note for the St. Damien Center after a short three years.  This is a great testament to the generosity of our parish.

This year we recognize the graduating classes of 1975 (Sacred Heart) and 2000 (Seton.) If you have information about former classmates, please forward their information to the Lee Parish Center. We would love to see old classmates attend.

For families, there will be a clown, a magician and games on the lawn … including a fun house from Jumping Joeys!  

Both Mexican and American food will be served.  If anyone would like to donate a dessert, please drop it off in the Culemans Hall Cafeteria after 10:00 a.m. on Sunday morning.  

Back by popular demand is St. Damien’s Belgian Brew for sale! Only $5 a pint.

Large raffle prizes include an electric bike, Two Night stay at Bed and Breakfast in Galena, tickets to the Music Guild, the Vibrant Arena at The Mark, Heart concert, Quad City Skydiving and many more!  There will also be various themed baskets available. Winners announced at 3:15 p.m. There is still time to donate a basket.  Deadline is June 13th.  Drop off your basket at the Parish office during business hours.

Check out the times of the different activities.
