About this location
A few stories people tell about this place
1. A delivery driver arrived at Sacred Heart Community Clinic one morning with a mysterious package. As he approached the entrance, he noticed an old lady watching him from across the street, her eyes following every move. The delivery driver hesitated for a moment, then decided to ignore her and continued inside. Later that day, as he was leaving, he saw the same woman waving frantically from her porch. Turning around, he realized she was holding a note: ‘Dear Delivery Guy, I just wanted to say thanks for delivering my heart medicine!’
2. A curious nurse noticed that every Tuesday, patients arriving at Sacred Heart Community Clinic seemed unusually cheerful. She asked one elderly gentleman, ‘Why do you always look so happy on Tuesdays?’ He replied, ‘Oh, I just found out that’s when they serve free cookies!’ One day a delivery driver joked, ‘I bet it’s not even real cookies!’ The next Tuesday he showed up early and hid behind a curtain. Peering around, he saw no cookies but watched as everyone still smiled broadly. Turning to his friend later, he shrugged, ‘Guess it’s the thought that counts.’
3. A new volunteer arrived at Sacred Heart Community Clinic each Monday morning, carrying an old suitcase full of snacks and puzzles for the waiting room. But no one could figure out where he got them—every week it seemed like a different kind of treat appeared inside. One Monday, the volunteer showed up with a suitcase filled with freshly baked cookies and a note that read: ‘For those who wait, love from a grateful community.’ As everyone munched on the treats, they noticed a familiar face smiling shyly in the corner—a neighborhood baker who had delivered pastries every Tuesday until recently.}
4. A delivery driver arrived at Sacred Heart Community Clinic one evening with a peculiar package wrapped in old newspaper. As he placed it on the counter, everyone stopped for a moment—inside was a tiny ceramic statue of St. Jude, holding a sign that read ‘Please help me find my home’. The next morning, a regular patient asked if they could keep the little saint. The doctor smiled and said, 'Why not? It might just bring us some good luck!' And so, St. Jude found his new home—and now everyone jokes that maybe he’s our unofficial clinic mascot.'
