Today, the Church celebrates the Solemnity of the Most Sacred Heart of Jesus - a feast that reminds us of one of the most important truths we can share with our children:

Jesus loves us.

The image of the Sacred Heart shows us the heart of Christ burning with love for the world. It reminds us that His love is patient, merciful, and always present, no matter what.

For families with young children, this feast is a beautiful opportunity to keep things simple. Before we teach our children about doctrine or devotions, we can help them know this foundational truth: they are deeply loved by Jesus.
