“In the end, my Immaculate Heart will triumph.”.
O God, who prepared a fit dwelling place for the Holy Spirit in the Heart of the Blessed Virgin Mary, graciously grant that through her intercession we may be a worthy temple of your glory. Through our Lord Jesus Christ, your Son, who lives and reigns with you in the unity of the Holy Spirit, God, for ever and ever. (Collect Prayer for the Mass of the Feast of the Immaculate Heart of Mary)

Today, we celebrate the Solemnity of the Most Sacred Heart of Jesus!
In his homily for the Consecration of the United States to the Sacred Heart, Supreme Chaplain Archbishop William Lori reminded us of the love between Christ & the Father and that “The Sacred Heart is the visible sign of that love. It is not an abstract devotion. It is the revelation of God’s love made flesh—a heart that has known joy and sorrow, friendship and betrayal, suffering and sacrifice.”

Today, the US bishops will consecrate our nation to the Sacred Heart of Jesus in anticipation of the 250th anniversary of our country!
O Sacred Heart of Jesus,
living and quickening source of eternal life,
infinite treasure of the Divinity,
and burning furnace of divine love,
You are my refuge and my sanctuary.
O my amiable Savior,
consume my heart with that burning fire
with which Your Heart is ever inflamed;
pour down on my soul those graces
which flow from Your love;
and let my heart be so united with Yours
that our wills may be one,
and that mine may be
entirely conformed to Yours.
May Your divine will be equally the standard
and rule of all my desires and of all my actions.
Amen.
Vivat Jesus!
