Sacred Heart is a territorial parish of the Diocese of Reno, serving Catholics in the small railroad town of Carlin, Nevada, in Elko County. The parish is located at 562 4th St. in Carlin, in the sparsely populated northeastern reaches of the diocese.
Dedicated to the Sacred Heart of Jesus, the parish reflects a devotion long popular among Catholic communities throughout the American West, brought to the region by early missionary clergy and settlers who established small mission churches to serve railroad and mining towns across Nevada.
Sacred Heart operates in close association with neighboring parishes in the diocese; its website is maintained jointly with St. Joseph Church, suggesting shared pastoral leadership typical of small, geographically dispersed parishes in the Diocese of Reno.
