Sacred Heart Parish

Sacred Heart Parish is a diverse, loving Catholic community of believers in Jesus Christ. We are located in the heart of East Boston at the corner of Brooks and Paris Streets.

Since its establishment in 1869, our Parish has been a living testimony of faith in Jesus Christ. Today, our Parish reflects the diversity of East Boston -- Irish, Italian, El Salvadorean, and Columbian, to name a few. 

The vibrancy of this community is evident in the dedication and energy of all parishioners that sustains a number of important initiatives, including:

• Liturgical events and Sacraments
• A Parish School, East Boston Central Catholic School
• A religious education program through the Holy Family Center
• Various ministries for faith formation, service, and community; and so much more!

Within the church, we are following COVID safety protocols; the church is regularly cleaned, and we have installed new air purification filters to help keep all safe while attending a service.

We invite you to join us for a daily or weekend Mass, or adoration and welcome you to join our Parish! We are all God's children; brothers and sisters in Christ. It is our sincere hope that we as a people of God in East Boston and a united body of believers in the Risen Lord may walk together towards Him and by our witness, continue to preach the good news of the Gospel to the world around us. I look forward to meeting you! 

Your Servant in Christ,
Fr. Paolo Cumin, FSCB
