Submit Your Intentions: Three Holy Masses, June 14-16

Dear Friend,  

The month of June is dedicated to the Sacred Heart of Jesus. The Feast of the Sacred Heart was established in 1856, by Pope Pius IX, to be observed after Corpus Christi. This year, the Solemnity of the Most Sacred Heart of Jesus is Friday, June 16.  

Growing up, Cardinal Burke has had a strong devotion to the Sacred Heart of Jesus and has written that the love of the Sacred Heart is immeasurable and we should never give in to any discouragement, for he states:

The devotion to the Sacred Heart of Jesus constantly reminds us that Christ is with us and becomes the instrument by which He speaks to our hearts, drawing them to Himself, so that He may send us on mission to others. The essence of the devotion to the Sacred Heart of Jesus is daily conversion of life to Christ, the daily placing of our poor and sinful hearts into the all rich, all merciful, all loving, all good Heart of Jesus.

His Eminence has previously asked us to “pray for the purification of hearts, for the purification of a wordily way of thinking which has entered into even the mind and hearts of the members of the Church and even of her shepherds.”  

So, please be sure to pray for the Bishops who will be gathered next week for the USCCB Spring Assembly. Meditate on what St. Therese of the Child Jesus and the Holy Face wrote in a prayer for priests:

“O Jesus, eternal Priest,
keep your priests within the shelter of Your Sacred Heart,
where none may touch them.”

Starting on Wednesday, June 14, I am asking you to join me in three days of prayers invoking the Sacred Heart of Jesus. Please submit your personal intentions to be included in three Holy Masses, from June 14 – June 16 (which includes the Solemnity of the Most Sacred Heart of Jesus).

Together, let us invoke the Sacred Heart of Jesus, who is rich in mercy and love, to have mercy on us and on the whole world!

Yours in the Sacred Heart of Jesus and the Immaculate Heart of Mary,
