In anticipation of the international World Youth Day (WYD) Lisbon 2023 with Pope Francis, 24 young people connected to the Society of the Sacred Heart and five Religious of the Sacred Heart (RSCJ) arrived in Rome to begin the inaugural SacredHeartDNA program: “Belong and Act as One: Discovering Our SacredHeartDNA.”

SacredHeartDNA is an initiative born out of the Society of the Sacred Heart United States – Canada Province Young Adult and Vocation Ministry Office, and the “Belong and Act as One” participants represent four countries—Chile, Mexico, Poland and the United States..
