Arkansas City - Sacred Heart
Message from Pastor
Catholic education makes a difference, not only for the students but also for the whole parish. In a small town, like Arkansas City, the Catholic school helps the parish to have hope that the next generation of Catholics is well prepared to carry on the proud traditions of the Catholic faith and of the parish. Many generations of parishioners have been educated at Sacred Heart, but due to the economic problems that face all small towns in Kansas, without the support of The St. Katharine Drexel Fund, Catholic education would be much more difficult to provide for each and every Catholic family in the parish.
On behalf of Sacred Heart Parish, I would like to thank you for your generous support of The St. Katharine Drexel Fund and for your continued prayers for the success of Catholic education throughout the Diocese of Wichita.
