The Sacred Heart of Jesus

June is especially dedicated to the Sacred Heart of Jesus

....Only the Heart of Christ who knows the depths of his Father's love could reveal to us the abyss of his mercy in so simple and beautiful a way ----From the Catechism. P:1439

Pope Benedict's prayer intentions for June 2012 remind us that evangelization is an ongoing process.   Pope Benedict's general prayer intention for June 2012 is "That believers may recognize in the Eucharist the living presence of the Risen One who accompanies them in daily life."

"The Sacred Heart reminds us that Christ is not God simply appearing as man; He is truly man, just as He is truly God. As Pope Benedict put it, "From the boundless horizon of His love, God entered the limitations of history and of the human condition. He took a body and a heart so that we can contemplate and encounter the infinite in the finite, the invisible and ineffable Mystery in the human Heart of Jesus of Nazareth." In that encounter, we feel the presence of Christ's heart within our own."  Scott Richert
