WE ARE A RESURRECTION PEOPLE! WE ARE THE PILGRIMS OF HOPE!
The Lord is Risen! He is truly Risen! Alleluia Alleluia!
Dearly beloved Parishioners,
Today we rejoice in the Resurrection of Christ, Jesus’ triumph over sin and death. He heals our souls wounded by sin, brings Light to our Darkness and gives us HOPE in our despair. His Love, Joy and Peace fill our brokenness, emptiness and loneliness. New life is offered to all who cling to Jesus in Faith.

Heart to Heart Parish Newsletter
Our parish's newsletter, "Heart to Heart," serves as a channel of communication, assisting in the announcement of events and the reporting of information regarding the various initiatives of Sacred Heart Parish, Andheri East. It also serves as a testament to God's wonderful works among us in our parish through the activities of its various cells, groups, associations, and communities. Besides circulation within our parish (one copy per family), the bulletin is also sent to the Dean, Bishop etc. as reports. Spiced with humour, information about good health, professional opinion, interviews with leaders within the Parish, a message from the Parish Priest, articles for spiritual growth, and a Bible Quiz corner for Family, The Heart to Heart is a publication that is released quarterly, around the feasts of Easter, Sacred Heart of Jesus, Nativity of Our Lady and Christmas. Each issue focuses on a theme. The editorial team works within a scheduled timeframe and also takes into consideration the economics of publishing the bulletin.
