Description

Join us at the 40th Annual Benefit Dinner Dance to celebrate the impact of the MSC in the USA and Abroad.

Since our founding in Issoudun, France, in 1854 by Fr. Jules Chevalier, the Missionaries of the Sacred Heart have spread the Gospel to 54 countries. The MSC came to United States in 1876 to serve the French-speaking parishioners in Watertown, NY and the MSC USA was established as a Province in 1939. Today we continue to accompany others in their spiritual journeys, work for social justice/human rights, and serve the poor who are alienated and often without hope. As one of the earlier provinces, we, the USA MSC greatly contributed to the foundation of MSC communities in different parts of the world such as Papua New Guinea and Colombia.

Though we no longer send USA missionaries to these countries, we carry out our mission here at home and continue to provide financial support to MSC missions around the world to help with their ministries. With your help and support, we dedicated last year's profit to support the work of our MSC brothers in Korea.

This year, proceeds from our 40th annual fundraiser will help support the MSC ministries in the USA. Those ministries include serving the local Church through parish work, various diocesan staff positions, giving healing retreats and working with various outreach and social ministry programs. We also care for our retired and infirm missionaries (many of whom have spent their lives in foreign missions and continue serving the Church through daily prayer) and educate and form seminarians and laity.

The Benefit will start with a Mass in Papua New Guinean Pidgin and English at 4:30PM followed by cocktails, dinner, and dancing starting at 5:00PM.
