June 10, 2018 MESSAGE FROM THE REC TOR T here are three wonderful things to ponder as we think about the Solemnity of the Sacred Heart of Jesus which was celebrated on Friday, June 08. First, there is thanksgiving for the wonders of God s personal love for each of us. Pope Pius XII in 1956 describes this love of Jesus: Since the heart of Christ overflows with divine and human love, and since it is abundantly rich with the treasures of all the graces our Redeemer acquired by his life, his sufferings and his death, it is truly the unfailing foundation of that love which his Spirit pours forth into all members of the Church We are reminded of the words of Jesus: Come to me all of you who are weary and find life burdensome and I will refresh you. Matthew 11.28 The devotion to the Sacred Heart of Jesus helps us to connect God s love to the hard and irksome duties of life. When they are done in love they become easier and more pleasant for all. Second, there is reparation due to Jesus because we respond so poorly to his love, even though we have so many reasons for loving and thanking God. Jesus loves us not only with the divine but also with a human love. As truly human, Jesus had and has both the need and desire to love and to be loved. This Solemnity of the Sacred Heart of Jesus reminds us to endeavour to give Jesus the love for which he hungers. Our prayers of gratitude and our little sacrifices offered to God out of love help us to make reparation to Jesus for ourselves and others for our indifference to the love he has for each of us with his Sacred Heart. Third, our human love is purified and strengthened through the closeness of the Blessed Virgin Mary with Jesus. Pope John Paul II said this about the Immaculate Heart of Mary: we want to pray to the mother of the Eternal Word so that the Heart of Jesus may never cease to burn within the horizon of the life of each one of us. We pray that He may reveal to us the Love that is never extinguished or diminished, the Love that is eternal. We ask that his love may give light to the darkness of our earthly night and give warmth to the coldness in our human heart. This close union of Mary with Jesus, her Immaculate Heart with his Sacred Heart is recognized in the devotion to the Immaculate Heart of Mary. We can be sure of the help of Mary in our faith journey amidst the trials and temptations of the world, the flesh and the devil. Be not afraid, my Immaculate Heart will be your refuge and your safe path to God. (the Virgin Mary to Lucia at Fatima). The whole month of June is dedicated to honouring and cooperating with the Love offered to each of us through the Sacred Heart of Jesus and the Immaculate Heart of Mary. Fr. Galvon 3

Jo venes Adultos (19-35+) Aquí en el Holy Rosary Cathedral Hall - Todos los Mie rcoles. Hora: 7-9 pm De las Obras de san Buenaventura, Obispo HE AQUÍ EL CORAZÓN QUE TANTO HA AMADO A LOS HOMBRES C ontempla, hombre salvado, al que por ti esta clavado a la cruz... Uno de los soldados lo hirio con una lanza y le abrio el costado. Y fue permisio n de la divina providencia, a fin de que, brotando de la herida sangre y agua (Jn 19,34), se derramase el precio de nuestra salud, el cual, manando de la fuente arcana del corazo n, diese a los sacramentos de la Iglesia la virtud de conferir la vida de la gracia, y fuese para los que viven en Cristo como una copa llenada en la fuente viva, que salta hasta la vida eterna. (Jn 4,14) Leva ntate, tu que amas a Cristo, se como la paloma que tiene en su nido al fondo de la obertura (Jr. 48-28). Y allí como el pa jaro que ha encontrado su morada (Ps 83-4). No parara s de vigilar; como la to rtola allí cobijara s a tus pequen os y adelantara s tu boca para tomar agua en las fuentes de la salud (Is 12-3). Es en efecto la fuente que, brota en medio del Ede n, se divide en cuatro brazos (Jn 2-10), y derramada en el corazo n de los creyentes, riega y fecunda la tierra entera... Corre pues a esta fuente de vida y de luz con un vivo deseo, quien quiera que seas, y en tu amor de Dios, grítale con toda la fuerza de tu corazo n: oh belleza indecible del MAS ALTO esplendor muy puro de luz eterna. Vida que vivificas toda vida, claridad que iluminas toda luz y conservas en el esplendor eterno los diversos astros que brillan ante el trono de tu divinidad desde el origen de los tiempos! San Buenaventura: Teo logo, cardenal y general de la Orden Franciscana. Conocido como el Doctor Sera fico, Escribio la vida de San Francisco de Asís.
