“There is no doubt that Christians, in paying homage to the Sacred Heart of the Redeemer are obeying that divine commandment: ‘Thou shalt love the Lord thy God with thy whole heart, and with thy whole soul, and with thy whole mind, and with thy whole strength.'”

-Pope Pius XII, Haurietis Aquas, 1956

“Behold the Heart which has so loved men that it has spared nothing…”

-The fourth revelation of Jesus when showing His Heart to Saint Margaret Mary Alacoque

“Through the ages, I have disclosed in various ways My love for men and My burning desire for their salvation. I have allowed them to know My Heart.”

-Revelation of Jesus to Sr. Josefa Melendez, 11 June 1923

“I promise the Grace of final perseverance. They will not die in My disgrace, but will receive the Sacraments (if necessary), and My Heart will be sure shelter for them in that extreme moment.”

-One of the promises of Jesus to St. Margaret Mary Alacoque
