Historique
Prior to 1912 Immaculate Conception church offered two services, one in French and one in English. In the spring of 1913 a church building was begun for English-speaking parishioners lead by Rev. Maxime Pilion. The Parish had been erected by Archbishop Legal on Dec.21, 1912 and on July 13, 1913 the cornerstone was blessed. On May 10, 1914 Archbishop Legal blessed the new church and dedicated it to the Sacred Heart of Jesus.
In the 1930s and 1940s Sacred Heart served both the missions of St. Anne at Fraser Flats (1934-1945) and the mission of St. Patrick in Fairview (1939-1949).
In 1966 a fire destroyed the church. During the renovations serves were held at Sacred Heart School.
In 1978 the Ad Hoc Committee of the Inner City was formed by the Social Justice Commission. In 1985, although not formally acknowledge as such until 1991, Sacred Heart became the first Native Parish in Canada for an estimated 30,000 individuals of Metis and First Nations heritage.
Today the church continues to thrive in Edmonton’s inner city.
