Today, we celebrate the Feast of the Immaculate Heart of Mary, a heart wholly devoted to God and filled with love for His Son 🩵🌹

May Mary’s example inspire us to trust more deeply, pray more faithfully, and draw ever closer to Jesus.

“Hail Mary, full of grace, the Lord is with thee. Blessed art thou among women, and blessed is the fruit of thy womb, Jesus. Holy Mary, Mother of God, pray for us sinners, now and at the hour of our death. Amen.”

Immaculate Heart of Mary, pray for us 🙏

The Sacred Heart of Jesus reminds us that we never have to carry our burdens alone. Whatever weighs on your heart today- worries, disappointments, uncertainty, or fatigue - place it in His loving care.

In Him, there is always mercy, always hope, and always the grace to begin again.

“Leave everything in the Sacred Heart of Jesus, and begin again with joy.” - St. Teresa of Calcutta

O Sacred Heart of Jesus, have mercy on us ❤️‍🔥

We are so grateful to all who attended, volunteered, sponsored, donated, and supported the event in countless ways.

Thank you for helping make the evening such a success. 💛
