They both were their last Thursday doing just that for Sister. That parish no longer has a secretary to do these things, Sister runs the Soup kitchen and food pantry, so she is very busy with this work. Running the parish was not her original job coming to Sacred Heart. As of this year they are not planning to close Sacred Heart, but who knows with our current Bishop, it could close tomorrow without any notice and sold off as restaurant or something. But I'm sure by 2011 it will be closed for good. Both Sacred Heart and St Joseph records have been photo copied to be put into a book form by alphabetical order, As my requested on this sight for help has gone with out any luck for help this, could take many years with so little volunteers to help data enter and proofread the work. St Joseph had about 10000 marriages and about 18000 Baptismal records, from about 1842.
