Feasts of the Sacred Heart and the Most Precious Blood

Sacred Heart of Jesus, I trust in You!

The Feast of the Sacred Heart is celebrated 19 days after Pentecost Sunday. Because this year's Feast falls on the first day of July,  it coincides with the Feast of the Most Precious Blood of Jesus.

I will draw all by the links of love & charity. based on Hosea 2:14
Oh my Jesus, that you would give me to attach myself to you forever, to set ablaze the whole world with your love and to conquer by your love all hearts.

My only ambition
is to be everything to you;
You hold me, in place of day in a profound night,
In the milieu of a desert
you return to me a
whole world.
