Sacred Heart of Jesus

Heart of Jesus, source of every blessing, I love you and, with deep sorrow for my sins, I offer you this poor heart of mine.  May your grace help to make me humble, patient, pure and obedient to your will.  Grant that I may live in you and for you.  Give me comfort in my afflictions, health of body, assistance in my daily needs, your blessing on all that I do and the grace of a holy death.  Amen.

Logo4_200x242.pngThe Men’s Club offers a chance for men of the Parish to live out their faith, whether it is through service, fellowship, or prayer.  All Catholic men of the Parish and non-Catholic spouses of ladies of the Parish are eligible to become members of the Men’s Club.  The Men’s Club is devoted to promoting the Catholic faith, sociability, and supporting parish and community charitable efforts.

The Men’s Club meets on the second Tuesday of each month, September through May, at 5:00 PM in the Lower Hall of the Church.  If you would like to attend one of our meetings simply contact one of our members and let them know you’d like to attend.  It’s that easy.

We have two major fundraisers each year, a chicken bake in the fall and a fish bake during Lent.  We support Jackson House, Samaritan Ministries, Paul Bewie Boys & Girls Club, McCauly Center Meals on Wheels, St. John’s School in Hot Springs,Our Lady of Fatima School in Benton, and Sacred Heart Christmas Baskets, among others.  There are typically several men from the Club that are actively involved in most of these organizations.

On the social front, aside from our meetings, we start and end our year by inviting the spouses and widows of former members to our Kickoff Dinner in September and our Steak Fry in May.  We also have a Christmas Dinner wiih wives and widows at our normal dinner meeting in December.  We also have an annual trip to see the Arkansas Traveler Basebal team play at Dickey-Stephens Park in North Little Rock in May or June of each year.

The Sacred Heart Men's Club held their regular members meeting on February 9, 2016.  72 members and 2 guests enjoyed a meal prepared and served by Chef Johnna's Restaurant.

After the meal Buddy Dixon and Deacon John Froning made a presentation entitled "ADVANCED PLANNING CAN KEEP YOU FROM MAKING A GRAVE MISTAKE".  Buddy discussed the history and current status of the Sacred Heart Cemetery, with the cremated remains of 105 members and relatives of parishioners of Sacred Heart Church in the 3 Columbariums in the Cemetery.

Deacon John then covered the necessary steps to plan your funeral, which include planning the music and mass readings, lectors, handling of the remains (cremation or burial of body), and other items that you don't want your relatives to have to decide during a very emotional time for them.

The Men's Club hosted a Holiday Dinner with wives or dates on Tuesday, December 15, 2015.  The dinner was open to the entire parish.  Over 120 attendees enjoyed a meal consisting of a choice of three entrees prepared by Chef Johanna's Cafe & Catering.  The meal was one of the best prepared for the Men's Club over the last few years.  After the dinner, Buddy Dixon introduced the Gospel singing group "Rejoice Singers" .  This group entertained the Men's Club at the last meeting of the 2014-2015 year and were equally good at this dinner meeting.

The last event for the evening was the singing of the "12 Days of Christmas" by a group of men wrestled from their chairs by program director Buddy Dixon.  The singing was equally hilarious to past years and was anchored by "5 Golden Rings" Dick Hill.  See the pictures under the "Photo" section of this website or view the video below (click the lower right corner of the video to view in full screen).
