In June Holy Mother Church reminds us of Devotion to the Sacred Heart of Jesus. And there is a reason why I end each Mass by proclaiming three times: “Most Sacred Heart of Jesus have mercy on us. This devotion is powerful. Jesus loves us so much He was willing to let His heart be pierced while on the Cross so we could be forgiven and cleansed of our sins. So following is why the Holy Mother Church remembers His Sacred Heart in June. Place an image in your house, and I will will have copies placed in the church where you can consecrate your home to Jesus’ Sacred Heart.

Offering to The Sacred Heart of Jesus

My God, I offer You all my prayers, works, joys, and sufferings in union with the Sacred Heart of Jesus, for the intentions for which He pleads and offers Himself in the Holy Sacrifice of the Mass, in thanksgiving for Your favors, in reparation for my sins, and in humble supplication for my temporal and eternal welfare, for the needs of our holy Mother the Church, for the conversion of sinners, and for the relief of the poor souls in purgatory. Amen

“O Sacred Heart of Jesus, living and life-giving fountain of eternal life, infinite treasury of the Divinity, and glowing furnace of love, Thou art my refuge and my sanctuary. O adorable and glorious Saviour, consume my heart with that burning fire that ever inflames Thy Heart. Pour down on my soul those graces that flow from Thy love. Let my heart be so united with Thine, that our wills may be one, and mine may in all things be conformed to Thine. May Thy will be the rule of both my desires and my actions.”
