This historic June 11–14 celebration is the largest national gathering in spiritual union with the bishops’ consecration of America to the Sacred Heart of Jesus.
In the scenic Kentucky Holy Land, over 30 speakers and musicians will be performing across the 80-acre Log Still Distillery campus, right next to the oldest foundation of monks in the USA.
The National Sacred Heart Conference will be at the idyllic Log Still Distillery campus amidst the rolling hills of American heartland.
The campus is packed with things to do. There is a huge lake with walking trails and fishing. A tasting room building, bourbon tours, as well as the two premier venues: Log Still's The Amp (outdoor amphitheater) and Log Still's The Legacy (indoor conference center).
Bring an RV or stay in a nearby hotel. We are next to Bardstown, once named "The Most Beautiful Small Town in America."
These speakers and musicians have impacted millions of lives around the world. Now they are assembling. Where will you be for the once-in-history moment when America is consecrated to the Sacred Heart?

“The world can change, beginning with the heart.”
—Dilexit Nos is the last encyclical of Pope Francis, a message about the Sacred Heart of Jesus
In 1792, the first American Bishop John Carroll consecrated the United States to the protection of the Blessed Virgin Mary.
In 1899, Pope Leo XIII consecrated the entire human race to the Sacred Heart through the encyclical Annum Sacrum.
For the 2026 consecration of America to the Sacred Heart of Jesus, essentially all active U.S. Catholic bishops are expected to participate—roughly 250+ bishops nationwide. As they consecrate the nation in Washington, D.C., this National Sacred Heart Conference will be praying alongside them. Will you be here with us?
The Sacred Heart Crusade is a new global revival of the Catholic Students' Mission Crusade, which hasn't had a conference in 56 years. Nowadays, many have never heard of it, even though it was one of the largest missionary youth movements of all time with a castle in Cincinnati!
