The  Solemnity of the Sacred Heart of Jesus

The heart of God burns with compassion!  On this week's solemnity of the Sacred Heart of Jesus, the Church presents us this mystery for our contemplation: the mystery of the heart of a God who feels compassion and who bestows all his love upon humanity.  A mysterious love, which in the texts of the New Testament is revealed to us as God’s boundless and passionate love for mankind. (Pope Benedict XVI, 2009)

 

At St John Vianney's School, we celebrate this day with a giving mass. We remember the gift that God gave to us.  We remember the compassion that Jesus showed to all people and we like to walk in his footsteps. We give to people in need, what we can, where we can and when we can. The Vinnies Winter Appeal is one of these wonderful causes that shows us how we can do this. 

 

Kind Regards,
