Concern for the safety of the faithful who worship at Sacred Heart church in Sturgeon Falls, and following a report from a consulting engineering firm regarding the state of the building, Bishop Jean-Louis Plouffe of the Diocese of Sault Ste. Marie announces that this church will immediately be closed for an unspecified period of time.
During this temporary closure, funerals, marriages and weekend masses for French speaking Catholics will be held at Our Lady of Sorrows church, located at the corner of John and King streets, Sturgeon Falls.
Weekday masses will be celebrated at 9:30 a.m. in Msgr. Lécuyer hall at the parish office of Sacred Heart.
For information on new mass times for Saturday evening and Sunday, please call (705) 753-6122.
Our thanks to Our Lady of Sorrows parish for the positive response given to the Bishop’s request.
We regret any inconvenience these security measures may cause.
