Sacred Heart Convent School

When A Section Of Society Believes In So-Called ?Destiny?, The Holy Bible Exhorts Us To Believe In God?S Intervention, Be It In The History Of Israel, A Race, Or People, Society Or An Individual. This Divine Intervention Was So Tangibly Experienced When Shri Isa Dass, The Then Deputy Commissioner Of Ludhiana, Approached Sr. Violette Through Fr. Hyacinth Ofm(Cap), To Start An English Medium School In Ludhiana. This Upcoming Industrial Town Had No Dearth Of English Medium Schools, But The Deputy Commissioner Felt That The City Was Incomplete Without A Convent School. A Native Of Karnal, He Had Seen The Progress Made By St Theresa?S Convent School In Karnal, And Wanted The Sisters Of The Same Congregation To Undertake The Venture At Ludhiana Too. Encouraged By The Vistas Opened For The Spread Of Bethany In The North, Mother Macrina, The Superior General, Approached Msgr. Swarbrick, Ofm (Cap), Perfect Apostolic Of Jallandhar, Who Was Too Happy To Welcome Bethany Sisters And Promised To Give All The Necessary Help. The Convent At Ludhiana Bearing The Name Sacred Heart Was Officially Opened On 2 July 1965. A Group Of Sisters Comprising Sr Mirabelle, Sr. Gretta, Sr. Dorita, Sr. Dora And Sr. Evangeline, Along With Miss Dotty A Helper, Started From Mangalore On 15 June 1965, And Stayed On In Karnal Till The End Of June.
