June is the Month of the Most Sacred Heart of Jesus:

Grant, we pray, almighty God,
that we, who glory in the Heart of your beloved Son
and recall the wonders of his love for us,
may be made worthy to receive
an overflowing measure of grace
from that fount of heavenly gifts.
Through Christ our Lord. Amen.

O Jesus, open wide thy heart!
O Jesus, open wide my heart!
O Jesus, meek and humble of heart,
make my heart like unto thine!
Most Sacred Heart of Jesus, have mercy on us!

A beautiful prayer from SLT in Saint Benedict Catholic Voluntary Academy this morning! As we begin meteorological summer today, may we all rejoice that we are made in God’s image, a God whose love within the Most Holy and Undivided Trinity is poured into us and expressed in our love for each other!

It is really lovely to have Fr Simon with us! He concelebrated with me and preaches at 0900 Mass, presided at 1100 Mass and will concelebrate with Fr Julius and preach at 1830 Mass.

Next Sunday, he will preside at 1730 Mass on Saturday night and 0930 & 1830 Masses on Sunday! Karibu sana, Fr Simon!

‘The Church’s Social Doctrine brings us to the very heart of our faith: the mystery of the living God, revealed in Jesus Christ, as a communion of Persons - Father, Son and Holy Spirit - is love itself in relationship, a mutual giving of self and sharing with the world. As the [Second Vatican] Council recalled, human persons are called to communion with God and “can fully discover their true selves only in sincere self giving”. Indeed their deepest vocation is to enter into the Trinitarian dynamic of love received and shared.’ (MH 48)
