We
thank everyone who has supported our parishes with their time, talent
and financial contributions. Please consider donating to the church electronically to make your Sunday offering. E-transfers are very easy to setup and use with the help of your bank. Supporting the work of the Church financially is an essential and intrinsic part of Christian discipleship
and stewardship.
Please note that e-transfer donations are received at the Bank as a Sunday weekly offering. __________________
For all other donations, specific to your request, please use the BLUE envelopes (Sacred Heart of Jesus) or the GREEN envelopes (Sacred Heart of Mary) in your box of envelopes or at the back of each Church.
You may drop off your donations or mail them to the Parish mailboxes in Marmora and Madoc.
Love the flowers adorning the church sanctuary and shrines? Consider using the white Flower Sponsor envelopes located in the narthex to give a one
time donation of $40 to provide flowers for the sanctuary and
shrines. You will also receive a Mass intention for your donation.
Often, people will sponsor flowers for Masses being offered for the intentions of members of their family.
Hats off to Shirley Gauvreau, Brenda Poirier, and Iris Doyle for always doing such splendid flower arrangements.
Thanks for your support!

Sacred Heart of Mary
Cemetery Board
has some exciting news!
We are blessed at Sacred Heart of Mary to have three cemeteries, with monuments dating back into the mid 1800's. Preserving our headstones is a link between our past and future generations and the value of our cemeteries and the history they possess cannot be overstated. As Catholic cemeterians we are committed to keeping our cemeteries a place of dignity that reflect our Catholic faith.
We have purchased a product
, D2 biological
, that can be used to clean your family monuments. D2 biological solution is a biodegradable, easy to use liquid that removes stains from mold, mildew, lichens and air pollutants. It is highly effective in removing the stains from cemetery monuments and is strongly recommended by our local Campbell Monument Company. We are offering monument cleaning on a “first come-first serve” basis or you may purchase some product and do the cleaning yourselves. Instructions will be provided upon purchase.
D2 Solution only for self-cleaning
- $15 for 5 ounces (minimum purchase)
- additional ounces are $3/oz
Cleaning by your SHM Cemetery Board
- $40 per flat marker
- The pricing of upright monuments will vary depending on size and condition
We are encouraging you to join us in restoring these headstones. In doing so, you are helping to preserve the final resting places of your loved ones, your friends and your church family. Please contact

(So far, Cathie Lahey Francis and Debbie Wood have cleaned 12 flat monuments. The hardest part is in the initial cleaning, with water and a brush to remove most of the lichen/mold, etc. Then the D2 is sprayed on and left to work. It is amazing, how much better the monuments look after the first cleaning. There is a marker in the old cemetery that was sprayed a year or so ago and it looks amazing. Apparently, it works better on some types of stones than others with granite being the hardest. The more porous the monument, the better it works. If you want to some before/after pictures, the ladies will be happy to show you)
