Today is the Solemnity of the Most Sacred Heart of Jesus, one of the great feasts of June and one of the oldest devotions in the Church.

This week we are sitting with what his open heart asks of us, not just as a personal prayer but as a community. A heart that gave everything, that turned toward the world before the world ever turned back, is the heart our mission tries to follow.

Save the prayer on the second image and take it into your week. Where is your heart being called to turn this week?

This summer, our seminarians are participating in the Culture and Mission Immersion Program in the Dominican Republic at La Sagrada Familia Parish in Sabana Yegua.

Through living with local families, serving alongside the parish community, and sharing in the daily life of the Church, they will deepen their understanding of different cultures and grow in their ability to proclaim the Gospel across cultural boundaries. This experience is not simply a mission trip—it is an opportunity for formation, encounter, and learning how Christ is present in every culture and community.

Please keep our seminarians, their host families, and the people of La Sagrada Familia Parish in your prayers throughout this summer.

A place of healing, hope, and dignity. ❤️

We are grateful to share this look inside the newly expanded Health Center at La Sagrada Familia Parish in Sabana Yegua, Dominican Republic. Through the dedication of local staff, parish leaders, volunteers, and generous supporters, the center provides essential healthcare services including general medicine, dentistry, laboratory services, pharmacy access, and rehabilitative care for families throughout the region.

For 45 years, World Mission Ministries and the Archdiocese of Milwaukee have partnered with La Sagrada Familia to accompany communities in faith and service. This Health Center expansion strengthens access to quality healthcare for children, the elderly, Haitian migrants, and other vulnerable populations.

Thank you to everyone whose prayers, generosity, and support help make this mission possible.

We join our brothers and sisters in our Milwaukee Twinning Parishes in prayer as communities in Uganda and the Democratic Republic of the Congo continue to face the challenges of the ongoing Ebola outbreak.

This recent radio interview features Deacon Gary and Dr. Cindy Jones-Nosacek, who recently returned from Uganda share firsthand insight into the obstacles facing healthcare workers and local communities. We ask for prayers for all those affected, for healthcare providers on the front lines, and for a swift and effective response to contain the outbreak. 🙏

Happy Monday!

We invite you to take a look back at our anniversary celebration at La Sagrada Familia in the Dominican Republic. This milestone trip honored the enduring connection between the Archdiocese of Milwaukee and La Sagrada Familia, which is supported by World Mission Ministries.

As we prepare to enter the 45th year of partnership, we ask for continued prayers, support, and an open heart for the communities we serve abroad and the faithful who celebrate in global solidarity with us here in Milwaukee!
