The Sacred Heart, also known as The Most Sacred Heart of Jesus (Latin: Sacratissimum Cor Iesu), is one of the most-widely-practised and well-known Catholic devotions, wherein The Heart of Jesus is viewed as a symbol of “God’s boundless and passionate love for mankind”.[1]
The devotion is especially concerned with what The Catholic Church deems to be the long-suffering love and compassion of The Heart of Christ towards humanity.
Predecessors to the modern devotion arose unmistakably in The Middle Ages in various facets of Catholic Mysticism, particularly with Saint Gertrude the Great.[4]
