Friends of the Rosary,Today, on the Saturday following the Solemnity of the Sacred Heart of Jesus, we celebrate the Memorial of the Immaculate Heart of Mary.From the beginning of Christianity, the love and virtues of the Heart of Mary have early attracted the attention of the faithful.Simeon's prophecy paved the way for devotion when he said that the heart would be pierced with a sword.In 1944, during the midst of World War II, Pope Pius XII consecrated the world to the Immaculate Heart of Mary, placing it under the special protection of the Mother of Our Savior.Pius IX instituted the feast of the Immaculate Heart of Mary for the whole Church, to obtain by her intercession "peace among nations, freedom for the Church, the conversion of sinners, the love of purity and the practice of virtue" (Decree of May 4, 1944).The day after refoijing in the burning love of the Sacred Heart, we honor the Immaculate Heart of the woman who gave Jesus his humanity.Ave Maria!Jesus, I Trust In You!Come, Holy Spirit, come!To Jesus through Mary!Here I am, Lord; I come to do your will.Please give us the grace to respond with joy!+ Mikel Amigot w/ María Blanca | RosaryNetwork.com, New YorkEnhance your faith with the new Holy Rosary University app:Apple iOS | New!
