Today we celebrate the Solemnity of the Most Sacred Heart of Jesus – a symbol of Christ’s boundless love. In a world driven by consumption, Pope Francis reminds us that only Christ’s love can set us free and renew our capacity to love where it feels lost.

The first signs of apples are appearing in the orchard 🍏🌿. Each tiny fruit marks the start of a season’s quiet work, and a reminder of the beauty in slow, steady growth. This year’s harvest is on its way.

On the Solemnity of the Birth of St John the Baptist, Pope Francis invites us to ask: Is my faith joyful? Do I feel wonder at God’s works? Am I open to His surprises, or is my faith dull and closed off? God is the God of surprises.

Today is the Solemnity of the Body and Blood of Christ, also known as Corpus Christi. In the Eucharist we encounter God’s Real Presence. He is close and loving, and we are called to reflect that love to others.

The mystery of the Trinity, one God in three Persons, is central to the Christian faith. As Pope Francis reminds us, Jesus sent the Apostles to baptise “in the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Spirit” (Mt 28:19).
