THE FEAST OF THE MOST SACRED HEART OF JESUS

Michelle (my daughter) started making these craft bags for me last summer. In each bag is a copy of the instructions from Seton Art 1, the pattern needed for the project and most of the materials needed for three boys to each complete the project. Scissors, glue and crayons and other materials that are not included are highlighted on the instruction sheet and added when we do the project. Today we pulled out our "Sacred Heart" craft.

"We show our devotion to the Sacred Heart of Jesus by honoring the symbol of His Heart of Flesh."

Great books to have on hand for all feast days and saints celebrations are Father Lovisik's small volumes. We have this one about the Promises of the Sacred Heart.

This explanation of the symbol of the Sacred Heart comes from Fr. Lovisik's book:

The flames that come forth from His Heart remind us of the His burning love for us and His desire that we love Him in return. The crown of thorns around His Heart reminds us of sacrifice to make up for sin.
