Morning Prayer - FRIDAY, 16 June 2023

LISTEN | Morning Prayer - June 16, 2023 | Solemnity of the Most Sacred Heart of Jesus

"I am the good shepherd, says the Lord, I know my sheep, and mine know me." - John 10:14

Today is the Solemnity of the Most Sacred Heart of Jesus, designated the Friday after the Second Sunday of Pentecost. From the Catechism of the Catholic Church 478:

"Jesus knew and loved us each and all during his life, his agony and his Passion, and gave himself up for each one of us: "The Son of God. . . loved me and gave himself for me" (Gal 2:20). He has loved us all with a human heart. For this reason, the Sacred Heart of Jesus, pierced by our sins and for our salvation (Cf. Jn 19:34), "is quite rightly considered the chief sign and symbol of that. . . love with which the divine Redeemer continually loves the eternal Father and all human beings" without exception (Pius XII, Enc. Haurietis aquas (1956): DS 3924; cf. DS 3812).
