🇺🇸On June 11, 2026, as we celebrate 250 years since the signing of the Declaration of Independence, the U.S. bishops will consecrate our country to the Sacred Heart of Jesus ❤️🇺🇸

Today is Day 8 of our Novena – Jesus, gentle and humble of heart

O Jesus! When You were a Pilgrim on earth, You said: “Learn of Me for I am gentle and humble of heart and you will find rest for your souls.” O Mighty Monarch of Heaven, my soul finds rest in seeing You, clothed in the form and nature of a slave, humbling Yourself to wash the feet of Your apostles... I beg You, my Divine Jesus, to send me a humiliation whenever I try to set myself above others. I know that You humble the proud soul but to the one who humbles one’s self. You give an eternity of glory... To obtain this grace of Your infinite mercy I will very often repeat: “O Jesus, gentle and humble of heart, make my heart like Yours!”

"Devotion to the Sacred Heart, like the more recent devotion to Divine Mercy, echoes the invitation that Jesus makes in the Gospels to those who are “weary and heavily burdened” because of sin and hurt to turn to him for mercy, healing and restoration. Indeed, devotion to the Sacred Heart of Jesus and devotion to the Divine Mercy have one and the same message, namely, that humanity is good and is greatly loved by God, and God generously offers mercy to all."

Welcome to Day 7 of the Novena to the Sacred Heart of Jesus – Heart of Jesus, source of all consolation:
I believe, O Lord, but strengthen my faith...
Heart of Jesus, I love Thee; but increase my love.
Heart of Jesus, I trust in Thee; but give greater vigor to my confidence.
Heart of Jesus, I give my heart to Thee; but so enclose it in Thee that it may never be separated from Thee.
Heart of Jesus, I am all Thine; but take care of my promise so that I may be able to put it in practice even unto the complete sacrifice of my life. Amen.

🇺🇸Today is Day 6 of our Novena to the Sacred Heart of Jesus, leading up to the States Conference of Catholic Bishops consecration of the United States of America on June 11: Heart of Jesus, atonement for our sins – My Jesus, I love You with my whole heart.

Today is Day 5 of our Novena – Heart of Jesus, fountain of life and holiness

Lord Jesus, Savior of the world and source of holiness, look with kindness on all whom you have chosen to be Missionaries of your loving Heart. Ask your heavenly Father to keep us in your love, and sanctify us in the truth so that you may be glorified in us and we may reflect your goodness. Ask your Father to keep us from evil that we may always be united in bonds of love. As you are one with your Father, so may we be one with each other in your divine Heart, whose sentiments shall forever be ours and to which we consecrate ourselves in time and for eternity. Amen.

Today is the Feast of Corpus Christi - the Solemnity of the Most Holy Body and Blood of Christ. We celebrate and honor the Real Presence of Jesus Christ - Body, Blood, Soul, and Divinity - in the Eucharist. O God, who in this wonderful Sacrament have left us a memorial of your Passion, grant us, we pray, so to revere the sacred mysteries of your Body and Blood that we may always experience in ourselves the fruits of your redemption. Who live and reign with God the Father in the unity of the Holy Spirit, God, for ever and ever. Amen.

Today is Day 4 of our Novena – Heart of Jesus, patient and full of mercy

Eternal God, in whom mercy is endless and the treasury of compassion inexhaustible, look kindly upon us and increase your mercy in us, that in difficult moments we might not despair nor become despondent, but with great confidence submit ourselves to your holy will, which is Love and Mercy itself. Amen (Diary: Divine Mercy in My Soul, 950). ✝

🇺🇸Please join us in praying the Novena to the Sacred Heart of Jesus, as the United States Conference of Catholic Bishops consecrate the US to the Sacred Heart on the occasion of the nation's 250th anniversary – Day 3 – Heart of Jesus, worthy of all praise

O most Sacred, most loving Heart of Jesus, Thou art concealed in the Holy Eucharist, and Thou beatest for us still… I worship Thee then with all my best love and awe, with my fervent affection, with my most subdued, most resolved will. O my God, when Thou dost condescend to suffer me to receive Thee, to eat and drink Thee, and Thou for a while takest up Thy abode within me, O make my heart beat with Thy Heart” (Meditations and Devotions, London, 1912, Part III [XVI], par. 3, pp. 573-574). 🙏
