Very good news ! Thanks for printing about this ! Sacred Heart has been a part of lake Worth for MANY years !
It is too bad that their priests cannot be a little more humble and drive low budget cars, the main priest bought a new car which costs like $43K, aren't priests supposed to be more humble? So sad, what do they do give one mass a day and what else? They make like $45K a year and live in a mansion with maids and all for free. If you want to live like a king, be a priest in Palm Beach Diocese.
Gee 10:50-How long have you been a member of the Parish? Talking about benefits-our Lake Worth City Commission puts these guys benefits to shame!
to bad the article sounds like only those few people paid.there were a lot of small donations given and those folks should be recognized
