Pope Leo XIV invites us to deepen our personal relationship with Jesus and to learn from his Heart how to have compassion on the world. Let us listen to his words in The Pope Video produced by the his Worldwide Prayer Network. And let us ask Christ to transform us and to teach us how to love. June is traditionally dedicated to the Sacred Heart of Jesus. Let us reflect on how to look on humanity with the sentiments of Christ and to take action to alleviate the suffering of the weakest. Let us join in praying for the Pope’s intention this month: “that each one of us might find consolation in a personal relationship with Jesus, and from his Heart, learn to have compassion on the world.”
