A novena to The Sacred Heart of Jesus has been published by the Institute for Catholic Education for use by families, in classrooms, or privately. The nine-days of prayer leading up to the Solemnity of the Most Sacred Heart of Jesus on June 11th, gives us an opportunity to “find our sure comfort and rest in the Sacred Heart of Christ’s love for each and every one of us.”

The Most Sacred Heart of Jesus is also at the core of the Comboni Missionaries' spirituality, and therefore an important time for us to pray for our own priests and their missionary community around the world. The Solemnity is also the World Day of Prayer for Priests.

Wednesday, June 2nd, is a day of preparation for the Novena which begins in earnest on June 3rd. The full text of the Novena can be found at  https://iceont.ca/novena-to-the-sacred-heart-of-jesus/
