Apostolate Apron * PRE-ORDER*

PRE ORDER - (in stock in 4 weeks) Apron in a cotton and linen weave with flounce-trimmed shoulder straps that cross at the back and tie at the waist with the beautiful picture of the Sacred Heart encased between clear plastic covers and elegantly crocheted around the edge by the Sisters of Carmel. The front of the badge pictures Our Lord with a quote from the Gospel: “Come to Me all you that labor and are burdened and I will refresh you.” On the back of the badge is a close up image of the Sacred Heart. Above the image are the words of Our Lord to St. Margaret Mary when He first revealed to her His Heart: “Behold this heart, which has so loved men.” Beneath the image in the invocation “Cease the heart of Jesus is with me!” Devotional Practice Wishing to foster the pious habit of wearing the Badge, in 1872, Blessed Pope Pius IX granted one hundred years indulgence to those who wear this emblem and pray daily one Our Father, one Hail Mary, and one Glory Be. The Sacred Heart Badge is a sign or symbol, a wordless message that cuts across barriers of language, nationality and race. It gives an instant message about one’s attachment and devotion to Our Saviour. Amid our daily occupations, the fatigues and toils of the day, the badge is a reminder of Our Lord’s constant intercession for us. “Cease, the Heart of Jesus is with me!”
