It is the tradition of the general administration of the congregation to write a letter in preparation for Feast of the Sacred Heart.
“We celebrate the solemnity of the Sacred Heart just one year removed from the XXII General Chapter which focused on the necessity of re-centering our lives in Christ and re-visiting our spiritual inheritance in dialog with the times in which we live,” began Fr. José Ornelas Carvalho, superior general of the Priests of the Sacred Heart. ” This feast also concludes a year dedicated to priests who are called, in a special way, to be and to express the love of Christ in the church and world. The reflection you are about to read is aimed at helping live these events with a look at our roots while seeking to allow ourselves to be borne by the Spirit that renews all things.”
