Sacred Heart Church Preston
Parish Priest's Message
Welcome to the website of Sacred Heart Parish, Preston. It opens a new door to our church which has welcomed many parishioners and visitors since 1914.
We are an active and friendly community, blessed with a wonderful spirit of hospitality.
We are an inclusive community and there are a range of activities and ministries in which parishioners can become involved. Our church has a special beauty and nobility that invites those who enter to prayer and reflection.
We welcome everyone to share their gifts and talents in the service of our community. If you are new to our parish, we hope you will find our church to be a friendly place to worship God. If you are looking for an excellent Catholic education for your child, we invite you to consider our Sacred Heart Primary School.
Since 2008 our parish has been served by priests from the international missionary Society of the Divine Word (SVD).
You are most welcome to join or visit us and we trust that you enjoy this website.
May the heart of Jesus live in our hearts and in the hearts of all people!
Kind regards,
Fr Aloysius Nato, SVD
