Sacred Heart of Jesus Parish, Danbury

Sacred Heart of Jesus Parish - designated for Polish immigrants in Danbury, Connecticut, United States.

In the spring of 1925 the property where the church now stands was purchased for one dollar and other valuable considerations.

Within four months over $20,000 was collected, and construction of the new church began almost immediately, and on October 18, 1925, 2,000 people witnessed the laying of the cornerstone.

In June 2014, it was announced by Bishop Caggiano, Father James McCurry (Friar Provincial) and Father Dennis Mason (Pastor of Sacred Heart) that after nearly 90 years of service, the Conventual Franciscan Friars would depart Sacred Heart of Jesus Parish as part of the province's restructuring of their ministries.

Leonel Medeiros assumed the role of Pastor at Sacred Heart, following Father Dennis Mason's departure.
