This little beauty of a church is where my wife and I were married, and where my twin children were baptized. You don't know the blessings you will find here. Before the noon Mass there is the Angelus, and Midday Prayer from the Liturgy of the Hours. What graces come from that, you will find out in heaven!

I have been a parishioner of the former Sacred Heart Cathedral for nearly 36 years. The Holy Name of Jesus Cathedral is my current parish. The Sacred Heart Church holds so many wonderful memories. Its location in the heart of Raleigh is a much needed oasis. Weekday Masses are held at the Sacred Heart Church.

The priest are traditional with strong belief in the efficacy of the Mass and the reconciliation, a love for the passion of Christ, the true presence and charity. I do not normally enjoy homilies but there's are deep or friendly. If you have been away from the church a while and are reconsidering, I recommend stopping by for Mass at 12:10 weekdays and sticking around for a very non judgmental and non painful retry of reconciliation. It could change your life .

Arrive early, it's in the heart of the city, so you need to make sure you'll get parking. The church itself is beautiful, and the people are very welcoming. Sometimes I've been disappointed in the homily at other Catholic churches, but not here! I think that is because this parish is truly involved in outreach and dedicated to serving. They feed the homeless, encourage interaction, and they're real "roll up your sleeves and get dirty cause Jesus said you should," Christians. Also, the Priest is always able to explain the gospel in layman's terms so you get a little bit of Church history, a lot of guidance on true Christian theological thought, and frequently a story about a recent event in the Priest's week to tie everything together. I always leave with something to really ponder, and a renewed faith. I tend to go on Saturday nights, and I really love the way there's a reverence and an easygoing nature inside the church. I can't really tell you if what Sunday Mass is like, but Saturday is spiritually sound in my book. I was a lapsed Catholic but now I actually look forward to going every weekend. PS - Don't expect good music, though, it's a Catholic church afterall. Don't get greedy!
