Overview

The Sacred Heart Collection offers wisdom and insight from trusted nineteenth-century Catholic clergy on the widely practiced devotion to the Sacred Heart. Learn about the dogmatic aspects of the devotion from Henry Edward Manning, archbishop of Westminster. Mark each day of June—the month of the Sacred Heart—with prayers from Jesuit priest Alexis Lefebvre. Follow the story of the devotion to the Sacred Heart with a historical account by Emile Bougaud, bishop of Laval.

You’ll gain knowledge and understanding of this popular devotion. Initiated in the late-seventeenth century through a series of apparitions to Saint Margaret Mary Alacoque in France, the devotion gained traction in the nineteenth century and has been celebrated as a feast day in the Roman Catholic Church since 1856. It is focused on Christ’s love for humanity, and his desire for us to return his love.
