If you’ve heard of the First Friday Devotion but aren’t entirely sure what it’s about or why it’s important, you’re not alone! It’s one of the beautiful and rich traditions within the Catholic faith, and it carries deep spiritual significance. ❤️🔥 The First Friday Devotion is a practice of honoring the Sacred Heart of Jesus by attending Mass and receiving Holy Communion on the first Friday of each month. It’s part of a broader devotion to the Sacred Heart, which comes from a promise made by Jesus Christ to St. Margaret Mary Alacoque. Jesus revealed to St. Margaret Mary the immense love He has for humanity. He promised that those who make a sincere effort to honor His Sacred Heart, particularly, will experience special graces and spiritual benefits. This devotion to the Sacred Heart has been fully approved by the Catholic Church. Come pray with us! The next First Friday Mass at our parish will be celebrated on September 5, 7 PM at St. Ita church. (5500 N. Broadway). *Photos courtesy of Luana Lienhart, OFS.
