St. Margaret Mary drew this picture:


"The laity will find in this lovable devotion [to the Sacred Heart of Jesus] all the helps necessary for their state in life: peace in their families, consolation in their work, the blessing of Heaven on all their undertakings, consolation in their afflictions. It is especially in this Sacred Heart that they will find a refuge during their whole life and principally at the hour of death. O, how sweet it is to die after having practiced a tender and constant devotion to the Sacred Heart of Jesus Christ!"
~ St. Margaret Mary Alacoque, in a letter. She died on yesterday's date in 1690.

  A Photo I took in Siena, Italy last summer. Happy Feast of St. Catherine of Siena, everyone! As you see, I'm not regularly posting her...
