The Sacred Heart of Jesus – Feast Day 19th June 2020
The Feast of the Sacred Heart has been in the Roman Catholic liturgical calendar since 1856, and is celebrated 19 days after Pentecost. As Pentecost is always celebrated on Sunday, the Feast of the Sacred Heart always falls on a Friday.
The devotion to the Sacred Heart is one of the most well-known Catholic devotions, wherein the heart of Jesus is viewed as a symbol of “God’s boundless and passionate love for mankind”
Say this prayer together
Lord Jesus Christ, your heart was moved with love for the men and women who came for help in their need. You healed the sick, you fed the hungry, you forgave sinners, you cried over Jerusalem. Above all, you showed to those who were prepared to listen the way to true life, for you are the Way the Truth and the Life.
Lord, your heart is still moved today by your people and their many needs. Open our hearts to hear your word, to accept your love, and to respond to your call.
Most Sacred Heart of Jesus, I place all my trust in you.
Amen.

O most holy heart of Jesus, fountain of every blessing, I adore you, I love you, and with lively sorrow for my sins I offer you this poor heart of mine. Make me humble, patient, pure and wholly obedient to your will. Grant, Good Jesus, that I may live in you and for you. Protect me in the midst of danger. Comfort me in my afflictions. Give me health of body, assistance in my temporal needs, your blessing on all that I do, and the grace of a holy death. Amen.

RE: WALT: understand the importance of Imago Dei.

For this week, your afternoon learning will focus on the news. The tasks in the table below are linked to last week’s edition of children’s newspaper, First News.Click here for the activities.
Click here for the First News Newspaper.
Click onto the RE Blog about Catholic Social Teaching When the Church writes its official teaching, it writes in Latin. In Latin the phrase ‘Image of God’ is ‘Imago Dei’. We know that God has no physical body. God is pure spirit, so we can’t actually look like God. But we can be like God in our nature – in the way we act and speak and behave. We can be like God, being creative, not destructive. This afternoon, we would like you to make some decorative signs that say Imago Dei and place them on the mirrors in your home so that when you look in the mirror and see yourself, you are reminded that you are made in God’s image.
