Today the Catholic Bishops of the United States will officially consecrate our nation to the Sacred Heart of Jesus.

Devotion to the Sacred Heart existed long before St. Margaret Mary Alacoque, but it spread throughout the Church through the revelations she received from Jesus in the late 1600s.

In June 1675, during the octave of Corpus Christi, Jesus asked that a feast in honor of His Sacred Heart be celebrated on the Friday after the octave of Corpus Christi as an act of reparation for sin.

Over time, the Church approved and embraced this devotion. In 1856, Pope Pius IX extended the Feast of the Sacred Heart to the entire Catholic Church.

Today’s consecration is a reminder that the Heart of Christ remains a refuge of mercy, love, and hope for every nation and every soul.

Many Catholics honor the Sacred Heart through First Friday devotions, Eucharistic adoration, acts of reparation, and personal consecration.

Have you ever consecrated yourself or your family to the Sacred Heart of Jesus??????????
