Dear Friend,

You still have an opportunity to include your intentions on the last day of our Holy Masses, invoking the Sacred Heart of Jesus, on the Solemnity of the Most Sacred Heart of Jesus, June 11; please submit your personal intentions.

As we celebrate the great Solemnity today, let us meditate on Cardinal Burke’s words, from his homily, during Operation Storm Heaven’s Holy Mass on June 1st. View the Mass and Homily here.

“The heart of Jesus in fact represents the whole of the mystery of faith, the whole of the pascal mystery, the mystery of the redemptive incarnation, for it represents that constant immeasurable outpouring of divine grace from the glorious heart of Jesus assumed into heaven upon the Church and into the souls of all the faithful.  We know that Our Lord is always true to His promise – for us, our salvation, our eternal salvation and we see in the heart of Jesus, the glorious pierced heart of Jesus, the sign of that fidelity of the Lord to His promises, the anchor of our hope.”

Here are some suggestions for honoring the Sacred Heart of Jesus throughout the year:

1. Consider receiving Holy Communion on nine consecutive First Fridays, in honor of and in reparation to the Sacred Heart of Jesus. 
2. Carry your cross and heavy burdens daily out of love for the Sacred Heart and say with great affection: “Heart of Jesus, be my salvation!”

O most Holy Heart of Jesus, fountain of every blessing, I adore You, I love You, and with a lively sorrow for my sins, I offer You this poor heart of mine. Make me humble, patient, pure, and wholly obedient to Your will. Grant, good Jesus, that I may live in You and for You. Protect me in the midst of danger; comfort me in my afflictions. Give me health of body, assistance in my temporal needs, (mention your personal intentions here) Your blessing on all that I do, and the grace of a holy death. Amen.

Thank you for joining me and our prayer warriors throughout the world. Let us
continue to Storm Heaven, invoking the Heart of Jesus, who is rich in mercy
and love, to have mercy on us and on the whole world!

Your friend in Christ,
