June is the Month Dedicated to the Sacred Heart of Jesus. Are You Ready to Sacrifice Out of Love?

St. John Eudes 1601-1680
Fr. Tom Colllins sent me the quote below from St. John Eudes. It's a fitting start for the month the Church dedicates to the Sacred Heart of Jesus. Let me invite you to join in the Sacred Heart novena which begins on June 3rd in preparation for the Feast of the Sacred Heart of Jesus on June 11th. I'm going to be offering it in reparation for the all the sins of the world, especially those committed by our shepherds. How much they must break the heart of our Mother Mary, Queen of the Clergy. How much their sins must have added to Christ's suffering in the garden and the burden of His cross. May this month be a grace-filled time for all of us to enter more deeply into the Sacred Heart and to join our own sufferings to "make up what's lacking in the suffering of Christ." (Colossians 1:24)
