The Church of the Sacred Heart of Jesus (Igreja do Sagrado Coração de Jesus) is a historic Catholic church in Belo Horizonte, Brazil. Its foundation stone was laid on 27 January 1900, and construction began in 1903. Designed by architect Edgar Nascentes Coelho, the church was completed around 1920 and became the second church built in the city.
In 1925, the church began celebrating the Syriac Catholic rite, serving the Syrian Christian community and preserving its distinctive Eastern Christian traditions. Its architectural and historical importance was officially recognized in 1979, when it was listed as protected heritage by the State of Minas Gerais.
Today, the church remains a significant place of worship and a symbol of the rich Eastern Christian heritage of Belo Horizonte.
