It’s a marvelous parish. My Dad went to SacredHeart/St. Stephen’s in the early Twentieth Century. A finer Catholic gentleman you would find nowhere.

Glad to see the parish is still strong and growing!I named one of my daughters Francesca, after the wonderful Mother Cabrini.

I recall in grade school we sang a hymn to St. Frances Xavier Cabrini and the words included “O Mother Cabrini”.

My Mom greatly admired her and the kitchen calendar always featured St. Cabrini. She was canonized in 1946 which at the time was considered a rapid process following her death in 1917.
