Welcome to our website, which is still under
construction! Our parish,
Sacred Heart, was El Paso’s first Catholic Church, founded by Italian Jesuit missionary Fr. Carlos Pinto, S.J. in 1893.
Our church is located 3 blocks from the Mexican border where El Paso (population 750,000) meets her twin city Júarez
(population 3,000,000). Our neighborhood, known as the “Segundo Barrio” or “Second Ward”,
is one of the poorest neighborhoods in the US with a host of problems and social challenges. Sacred Heart
Church tries to be Catholic in every way possible, putting the Gospel
of Jesus into action. Ever since it was founded, Sacred heart Church has always helped first generation
Mexican immigrants to integrate into North American culture and society. For this reason, many have called
us the “Ellis Island of Texas”. Our
mission is to welcome everyone. We hope you will visit us.
Fr. Edwin L. Gros, S.J.  |
