Every day on the 19th day after Pentecost, the Church celebrates the feast of the Sacred Heart of Jesus. This holy celebration, taking place on June 11, acknowledges Jesus’ unending love for us and his infinite compassion.
Beginning on June 11 and continuing for nine consecutive days, we celebrate a Sacred Heart Novena of prayer to ask Jesus to grant us healing, consolation, wisdom, patience, love, direction, care, guidance, renewal, and forgiveness. Also, during this time, we lift our hearts to give Him thanksgiving, gratitude, and place all our trust in Him.
Be sure to submit the names of those you wish to be remembered during this special celebration.
