Show JUNE THE MONTH OF THE SA- . :" ' ' i CRED HEART. Vv .. ' :" June is the month which the Church devotes to the Sacred Heart of Jesus in an especial manner, and it is becoming j in a Catholic paper to call attention to the fact. In all churches opportunities will be given during the month to perform the fixed devotions and thus obtain the benefits and graces that come from prayers and devotion carried out with sincere and loving hearts. And what I more beautiful devotion can there be ! than that which has for its object the Sacred Heart of the Blessed Savior, who came-into the world and took upon himself our sins and crimes and became be-came their sponsor, who suffered and died for us all? The church has her especial predilection for this beautiful .devotion in many ways, and has.ap-proved has.ap-proved and blessed associations formed , for the purpose of propagating it, so j that today there is scarcely a church I anywhere but in which it is carried out in the fullness of the Church's spirit, j We urge upon our readers that they shall not allow the month to pass with-i with-i out in some way paying some special I devotion to the Sacred Heart of Jesus. |
