The Solemnity of the Sacred Heart

Today is The Solemnity of the Sacred Heart of Jesus. This day commemorates the love of Jesus for all of creation, especially the most vulnerable and marginalised.

The following reflection explores what this commemoration may mean for Christians in the present age. Themes such as imagination and God’s transforming love, are deeply related to The Solemnity of the Sacred Heart of Jesus and the way Christians can experience and indeed be the love of Jesus in their lives.

Let us pray….

The Prayer of St. Teresa of Avila

Christ has no body but yours, no hands, no feet on earth but yours.

Yours are the eyes with which he looks compassionately on this world.

Yours are the feet with which he walks to do good.

Yours are the hands, with which he blesses all the world.

Yours are the hands.

Yours are the feet.

Yours are the eyes.

You are his body.

Christ has no body now but yours, no hands, no feet on earth but yours.

Yours are the eyes with which he looks compassionately on this world.

Christ has no body now on earth but yours.

Amen.

Testing and Tagging at Gillies Street

Please be advised that testing and tagging of electrical equipment will be undertaken on Wednesday 5 July whilst we are all attending the CEB Staff Meeting at Damascus College.

These works may extend into Thursday 6 July if required, but if you happen to be working from the office on this day, interruption whilst testing your personal equipment should only be minimal.
