Religious Education and Social Justice

Feast of the Sacred Heart of Jesus
Â
This Friday, 12th June, we will be attending Mass at 9:15 to celebrate the Feast of the Sacred Heart of Jesus. Â Families are welcome to join us.
Â
The Sacred Heart of Jesus represents the great love and care Jesus has for everyone in the world. At Corpus Christi, we aim to be just like Jesus by caring for others through our Social Justice actions and by living out the Catholic Social Teachings of the Dignity of the Human Person and the Preferential Option for the Poor.
Â
We thank you for the generous donations of food and hygiene products made towards our food drive for the St Vincent de Paul Winter Appeal.
Â
There is still time to send in some items to place in the donation baskets before Friday 19th June.
Prayer of Thanksgiving and Praise to the Sacred Heart
Lord, you deserve all honor and praise,
because your love is perfectÂ
and your heart sublime.
My heart is filled to overflowingÂ
with gratitude for the many blessingsÂ
and graces you have bestowed upon meÂ
and those whom I love.
Forever undeserving, may I always be attentive and never take for granted the gifts of mercy and love that flow so freely and generously  from your Sacred Heart.Â
Heart of Jesus, I adore you.
Heart of Jesus, I praise you.
Heart of Jesus, I thank you.
Heart of Jesus, I love youÂ
forever and always.
Amen.
