Sacred Heart wasn’t always a cottage country church

Sacred Heart Church in Qu'Appelle Valley has a long history. Pastor Fr. Louis Kim Nguyen, left, wil be celebrating the 150th anniversary Mass of Sacred Heart Church in Lebret, Sask., with Regina Archbishop Daniel Bohan on June 7.

LEBRET, Sask. - The glory days of the big stone church at Lebret were decades ago when it was the focal point of a thriving Roman Catholic mission in the heart of the Qu’Appelle Valley northeast of Regina. But Sacred Heart Church is back in the spotlight this year as the oldest Catholic parish in southern Saskatchewan celebrates its 150th anniversary.
