Among all the beautiful ways that we have in Catholic tradition of invoking and honoring our Blessed Lord Jesus and His Holy Mother, none is more tender and intimate than by their very hearts.
Sacred Heart of Jesus and Immaculate Heart of Mary Lapel Pin
In fact, devotion to the Most Sacred Heart of Jesus and the Immaculate Heart of Mary is for some Catholics a big part of their spiritual life. “But what’s the point?”, we might ask. The answer can be summed up in two powerful words: sacrificial love.
To learn more about devotion to the Sacred Heart of Jesus, see the writings of St. Margaret Mary Alacoque, a French nun of the Visitation Order who died in 1690 and was canonized in 1920 by Pope Benedict XV. She is ‘the beloved disciple’ of the Sacred Heart.
Sacred & Immaculate Hearts Lapel Pin Back
The piercing of Mary’s soul, symbolized by the sword through her Immaculate Heart, was foretold by Simeon at the presentation of the infant Jesus in the temple (Luke 2:35).
This lovely silver-tone pin is imported from Italy. When compared to badges or medals, what makes it special is its unique three-dimensional quality and versatile wearability. It measures about three-quarters of an inch tall and just under one inch wide.
Special thanks to local Holy Rosary parishioner Rebecca Belanger for first discovering this new item and promoting its use! We encourage you to stop in the store and get one for yourself – and some for others, too. Now, more than ever, the world needs to know the Sacred Heart of Jesus and Mary’s Immaculate Heart.
