The pierced Heart of Jesus on the Cross: in that darkness we see the extremity of the Love of God shining. . .

Mater Admirabilis was painted in 1844 by Pauline Perdrau, who at that time was a Sacred Heart postulant. Her feast is celebrated on the 20th October, a special day for Religious of the Sacred Heart, their co-workers and friends throughout the world.

In the midst of our busy lives may we allow ourselves to be touched by the stillness of this image, asking Mary to show us in her interiour life, the source of her total, true love.
