Papal
Encyclical 'Dilexit Nos' - 'On the Human and Divine Love of the Heart of Jesus
Christ'. ~ In his fourth encyclical, Pope Frances urges us, in the midst of so many global crises, to connect with what truly matters – the heart. In welcoming the encyclical,
Cardinal Vincent Nichols emphasised that the letter is for everyone because the Sacred Heart of Jesus is ‘the source of living water that moves us and enables us to reach out to others, to offer forgiveness, to make amends for our failings, to seek to build healing relationships of faithfulness and service. In the heart of Jesus, we find love.’
~ The encyclical is available to download
via the Bishops of England and Wales website.

generously funded by a parishioner. ~ click for photo
