In recognition of the 250th anniversary of the founding of the United States, the United States Conference of Catholic Bishops will consecrate our nation to the Sacred Heart of Jesus this year.

We invite you to prayerfully join in a novena beginning June 3 and continuing through the consecration on June 11.

Last year, the Presentation Sisters made a commitment to future generations to plant trees in parishes where they may have served.
The Henry Parish has recently been gifted a variety of trees that have already been planted in the St. Henry Cemetery.
Several of the Presentation Sisters will be present for the dedication and blessing of the trees on Thursday, May 28th at 11:30 am.
A light lunch will follow the dedication. All are welcome to attend.
