Sacred Heart of Jesus Explained for Kids

In this special Juice Box video collection for children, kids learn that the Sacred Heart is not just a picture. Sacred images are meant to awaken and nourish faith in the mystery of Christ, so that through them we are drawn to the One whom we adore.

This Catholic kids video collection helps children learn about the Sacred Heart of Jesus, St. Margaret Mary, Divine Mercy, Confession, Corpus Christi, and the Eucharist. Each video points back to one central truth: Jesus loves every person with a merciful, pierced, redeeming Heart, and He calls us to come closer to Him through prayer, the sacraments, and conversion.

Sacred Heart of Jesus for Kids: What Does the Sacred Heart Mean?

The Sacred Heart of Jesus helps children understand that Jesus’ love is real, personal, merciful, and sacrificial. It is not simply a symbol of kindness or a comforting religious image. It points us to the living Christ, who loves us, suffers for us, forgives us, and draws us back to the Father.

Many Sacred Heart images include flames, thorns, and a cross.

The flames call to mind Christ’s burning charity. His love is not cold, distant, or passive. It is alive and full of mercy.

The thorns point to the suffering Jesus endured out of love. They remind children that Jesus’ love is not shallow. He truly gave Himself for us.

The cross reminds us that His love is most clearly revealed in the Passion, and that His self-gift brings us back to God.

For kids, the Sacred Heart can be explained simply: Jesus loves you with His whole Heart. His Heart is full of mercy, and He wants you to stay close to Him.

How the Sacred Heart Connects to Confession and the Eucharist

The Sacred Heart devotion should lead us to live as Christ’s disciples, especially through the sacraments.

The Eucharist is “the source and summit of the Christian life,” containing and expressing the fullness of Christian prayer and drawing us into communion with God. When children learn about the Sacred Heart, they are also learning that Jesus does not love us from far away. He gives Himself to us and invites us into communion with Him.

Jesus also calls us to conversion. The Sacrament of Penance, also called Confession, restores us to God’s grace and reconciles us with Him in intimate friendship. Those who receive it with repentance receive pardon from God’s mercy and are strengthened by spiritual consolation.

This is why Confession is not something children need to see only as scary or embarrassing. It is a gift of mercy. Through Confession, Jesus welcomes us back and helps us begin again.

St. Margaret Mary for Kids and the Living Devotion

Kids also learn about St. Margaret Mary Alacoque, whom Christ chose to help spread devotion to His Sacred Heart, including special devotion tied to the first Fridays.

St. Margaret Mary’s story helps children see that devotion to the Sacred Heart is not only something from a prayer card or a church window. It is a living invitation to love Jesus, trust Him, receive Him, and respond to His mercy. Through her witness, children can learn that saints are real people who listened to Jesus and helped others come closer to Him.

Divine Mercy, Trust, and Coming Closer to Jesus

This collection also connects the Sacred Heart to Divine Mercy, because God’s mercy is meant to heal and renew hearts.

St. Faustina’s writings describe Christ sending her to proclaim His message of mercy and to exhort souls to trust in His merciful Heart. For children, this connection can be explained simply: Jesus wants us to trust Him. His mercy is greater than our sins, fears, and failures.

Divine Mercy helps children see that Jesus does not only love us when we are perfect. He calls us to come close, ask for forgiveness, and trust His Heart.

A Devotion That Supports the Church’s Worship

This video is designed to help children pray and grow in love for Jesus, while keeping the right order.

Popular devotions are valuable and spiritually fruitful when they are grounded in Scripture and Tradition and harmonized with the liturgy, which is the Church’s supreme act of worship.

That means devotion to the Sacred Heart should never replace the Mass, the Eucharist, Confession, or the life of the Church. Instead, it should help children and families love Jesus more deeply and participate more fully in the Church’s worship.

Transcript

[00:00:00 --> 00:00:01] June is a special month.
[00:00:01 --> 00:00:04] When we remember the sacred heart of Jesus,
[00:00:04 --> 00:00:08] his heart reminds us how much he loves us, forgives us,
[00:00:08 --> 00:00:11] and wants us to be close to him.
[00:00:11 --> 00:00:14] But where did this beautiful devotion come from?
[00:00:14 --> 00:00:15] Let's hear the story of St.
[00:00:15 --> 00:00:19] Margaret Mary and build the sacred heart together.
[00:00:19 --> 00:00:20] Whoa, look at this heart.
[00:00:20 --> 00:00:24] It has flames, thorns, and a cross on top.
[00:00:24 --> 00:00:28] That's not just any heart. That's the sacred heart of Jesus.
[00:00:28 --> 00:00:30] A long time ago, Jesus showed his heart
[00:00:30 --> 00:00:32] to a sister named Margaret Mary so
[00:00:32 --> 00:00:34] that she can tell the whole world
[00:00:34 --> 00:00:37] that his heart is burning with love for us.
[00:00:37 --> 00:00:40] So listen close because this story begins with a heartbeat.
[00:00:40 --> 00:00:41] Juice bark
[00:00:49 --> 00:00:50] The beating heart.
[00:00:53 --> 00:00:54] Sister Margaret. Mary breathed in
[00:00:55 --> 00:00:59] and out deeply with each breath.
[00:00:59 --> 00:01:01] She felt like she was breathing out all
[00:01:01 --> 00:01:03] of her anxieties and troubles.
[00:01:04 --> 00:01:07] Here. She did not have to worry about anything.
[00:01:08 --> 00:01:12] Here she could be seen as she truly was.
[00:01:13 --> 00:01:16] Every time she had the impulse to move,
[00:01:16 --> 00:01:20] she took another deep breath and relaxed herself even more.
[00:01:22 --> 00:01:26] She listened to the comforting sound of his heartbeat.
[00:01:26 --> 00:01:28] With each beat, she could sense
[00:01:28 --> 00:01:31] how much love was in his heart.
[00:01:31 --> 00:01:32] So much love
[00:01:32 --> 00:01:37] that she sensed an aching Margaret.
[00:01:37 --> 00:01:40] Mary gently looked up at the face of Jesus
[00:01:40 --> 00:01:44] and considered what a gift it was to rest upon his heart.
[00:01:46 --> 00:01:48] After Jesus departed from her sister,
[00:01:48 --> 00:01:52] Margaret Mary sat in the chapel staring at the tabernacle.
[00:01:52 --> 00:01:57] For a long time, she had no thoughts or words,
[00:01:57 --> 00:02:00] but lost herself in a gaze of love.
[00:02:00 --> 00:02:03] She heard a door behind her creak open,
[00:02:03 --> 00:02:05] but she couldn't bring herself
[00:02:05 --> 00:02:06] to look away from the tabernacle.
[00:02:07 --> 00:02:09] Though she could hear the clamor
[00:02:09 --> 00:02:11] of somebody entering the chapel
[00:02:11 --> 00:02:15] and sitting down, she was not taken from her gaze.
[00:02:16 --> 00:02:19] After a long time, she quietly stood up.
[00:02:19 --> 00:02:21] Jen deflected to the tabernacle
[00:02:21 --> 00:02:24] and walked to the back of the chapel and out the door.
[00:02:25 --> 00:02:28] She turned right and walked on a long dark
[00:02:28 --> 00:02:29] hallway towards her cell.
[00:02:29 --> 00:02:33] She passed two of her fellow sisters and they waved to her,
[00:02:33 --> 00:02:36] but she did not even perceive them.
[00:02:36 --> 00:02:39] Her heart was still in the chapel with Jesus.
[00:02:39 --> 00:02:42] She approached her cell, opened the door and empty.
[00:02:43 --> 00:02:45] The room was dark.
[00:02:45 --> 00:02:46] She closed her eyes
[00:02:46 --> 00:02:48] and held them tight so that they could adjust.
[00:02:49 --> 00:02:52] When she opened her eyes, she could see only the figure
[00:02:52 --> 00:02:53] of items in her room
[00:02:54 --> 00:02:57] and she began to feel around for her nightstand drawer.
[00:02:57 --> 00:03:00] She felt the drawer opened it
[00:03:00 --> 00:03:02] and pulled out a container of matches.
[00:03:02 --> 00:03:05] She struck one of the matches and lit her candle.
[00:03:05 --> 00:03:09] The room was illuminated with soft, warm light
[00:03:09 --> 00:03:10] and she could see her shadow on the wall.
[00:03:11 --> 00:03:14] She saw the paper and pencil she had been drawing with
[00:03:14 --> 00:03:17] before, still sitting on her bed and she took it.
[00:03:19 --> 00:03:23] She sat down in her chair and continued drawing.
[00:03:23 --> 00:03:26] She felt like she was still leaning against Jesus' heart
[00:03:26 --> 00:03:28] and she wanted to stay there forever.
[00:03:30 --> 00:03:33] She didn't know how long it had been when she heard a
[00:03:33 --> 00:03:34] knock on her door.
[00:03:36 --> 00:03:39] She slowly stood up, walked to the door and opened it.
[00:03:39 --> 00:03:42] Sister Mary Catherine was on the other side.
[00:03:42 --> 00:03:44] Sister Margaret Mary.
[00:03:44 --> 00:03:47] She said, are you all right, sister Margaret?
[00:03:47 --> 00:03:51] Mary found it difficult to speak. She stuttered a bit.
[00:03:51 --> 00:03:55] Sister Mary Catherine looked at her with concern.
[00:03:55 --> 00:03:59] Finally, she was able to utter, yes, I'm fine.
[00:04:00 --> 00:04:02] Sister Mary Catherine responded.
[00:04:02 --> 00:04:06] I was knocking on your door for probably two whole minutes.
[00:04:07 --> 00:04:11] You were as sister Margaret Mary. Yes.
[00:04:11 --> 00:04:13] Said Sister Mary Catherine
[00:04:13 --> 00:04:16] who looked at Sister Margaret Mary with a bit
[00:04:16 --> 00:04:18] of suspicion in her eye.
[00:04:18 --> 00:04:22] Talk to me, sister Margaret. Mary, you don't seem yourself.
[00:04:23 --> 00:04:26] Sister Margaret Mary sat back down on her chair
[00:04:26 --> 00:04:30] as she welcomed Sister Mary Catherine into her room
[00:04:30 --> 00:04:31] motioning for her to sit down.
[00:04:32 --> 00:04:35] Sister Mary Catherine sat down on the foot of the small bed.
[00:04:36 --> 00:04:38] Sister Margaret Mary looked blankly to the side
[00:04:38 --> 00:04:40] for a long moment.
[00:04:40 --> 00:04:44] Finally, she said, I don't know what to say.
[00:04:44 --> 00:04:46] Sister Mary Catherine asked,
[00:04:46 --> 00:04:49] what do you mean sister Margaret?
[00:04:49 --> 00:04:53] Mary said, he's given us his whole heart.
[00:04:53 --> 00:04:56] Sister Mary Catherine looked confused. She asked Who?
[00:04:57 --> 00:05:01] Sister Margaret. Mary said him. Jesus.
[00:05:02 --> 00:05:07] Yes. Tonight he let me lean upon his heart
[00:05:07 --> 00:05:08] and listen to it beat.
[00:05:09 --> 00:05:13] There was a long pause. Sister Mary Catherine looked
[00:05:13 --> 00:05:16] around the room wondering what she might mean.
[00:05:16 --> 00:05:20] She asked In what way? Sister Margaret.
[00:05:20 --> 00:05:23] Mary responded, just like I said, he came to me
[00:05:23 --> 00:05:26] and allowed me to listen to his heart.
[00:05:27 --> 00:05:30] Sister Mary Catherine raised her eyebrows.
[00:05:30 --> 00:05:34] Was he there physically? What do you mean?
[00:05:34 --> 00:05:35] Asked Sister Margaret. Mary.
[00:05:35 --> 00:05:40] Of course he was Sister Mary Catherine leaned in towards
[00:05:40 --> 00:05:44] Sister Margaret Mary and rested her chin on her hands.
[00:05:44 --> 00:05:49] Sister, she said. Has this happened before Sister Margaret?
[00:05:49 --> 00:05:54] Mary leaned back. Of course, doesn't he come to you as well?
[00:05:54 --> 00:05:57] Sister Mary Catherine said, you must talk
[00:05:57 --> 00:05:59] with Mother Superior about this.
[00:05:59 --> 00:06:02] This is highly unusual.
[00:06:02 --> 00:06:05] Sister Margaret Mary stared at Sister Mary Catherine
[00:06:05 --> 00:06:08] with wide eyes as if she was going to cry.
[00:06:08 --> 00:06:10] Sister Mary Catherine asked,
[00:06:10 --> 00:06:13] are you all right, sister Margaret?
[00:06:13 --> 00:06:15] Mary took a long pause to compose herself
[00:06:15 --> 00:06:20] and then said He loves us and wants us to love him.
[00:06:21 --> 00:06:25] Sister Mary Catherine said, of course he does.
[00:06:25 --> 00:06:26] Sister Margaret. Mary nodded her head
[00:06:26 --> 00:06:30] and said, he told me exactly what he wants though
[00:06:31 --> 00:06:33] and what does he want?
[00:06:33 --> 00:06:37] As Sister Mary Catherine sister Margaret Mary said
[00:06:37 --> 00:06:40] he wants a special feast day in celebration
[00:06:40 --> 00:06:41] of his sacred heart.
[00:06:42 --> 00:06:45] Sister Mary Catherine nodded her head
[00:06:45 --> 00:06:47] but looked confused as Sister Margaret.
[00:06:47 --> 00:06:49] Mary continued and he wants us
[00:06:49 --> 00:06:52] to receive him in holy communion on the first
[00:06:52 --> 00:06:54] Friday of every month.
[00:06:54 --> 00:06:56] He wants everyone to do this.
[00:06:57 --> 00:07:01] Sister Mary Catherine stood up and paced around the room.
[00:07:01 --> 00:07:03] She put her index finger over her lips
[00:07:03 --> 00:07:05] as she grew deeper in thought.
[00:07:05 --> 00:07:08] She said, sister Margaret, Mary.
[00:07:08 --> 00:07:10] I don't know whether what you're experiencing is
[00:07:10 --> 00:07:11] authentic or not.
[00:07:11 --> 00:07:14] I think you need to talk to Mother Superior
[00:07:14 --> 00:07:16] or Father Felipe about this.
[00:07:16 --> 00:07:20] I must go now. Sister Mary Catherine exited the room
[00:07:20 --> 00:07:22] and closed the door behind her
[00:07:23 --> 00:07:26] sister Margaret Mary looked down at her drawing
[00:07:26 --> 00:07:28] and stroked it with her hand.
[00:07:28 --> 00:07:30] She pondered the image of the pierced heart
[00:07:30 --> 00:07:34] and circled by a crown of thorns out of the top,
[00:07:34 --> 00:07:37] a rose across enveloped in flames.
[00:07:37 --> 00:07:38] She wanted the whole world
[00:07:38 --> 00:07:41] to know about this beautiful image.
[00:07:41 --> 00:07:45] She gazed up at the clock hanging on her wall and gasped.
[00:07:45 --> 00:07:49] She popped out of her chair, left her room,
[00:07:49 --> 00:07:51] and headed back down to the hallway for the chapel.
[00:07:53 --> 00:07:55] As she walked towards the chapel,
[00:07:55 --> 00:07:58] she reflected on her conversation with Sister Mary Catherine
[00:07:58 --> 00:08:01] and remembered all of the times she encountered Jesus.
[00:08:01 --> 00:08:04] Since she was a little girl,
[00:08:04 --> 00:08:06] she felt tears well up in her eyes
[00:08:06 --> 00:08:07] as she pondered the thought
[00:08:07 --> 00:08:10] that other people did not have the joy of seeing
[00:08:10 --> 00:08:11] and hearing Jesus.
[00:08:13 --> 00:08:16] She arrived at the chapel door and stopped.
[00:08:16 --> 00:08:21] She closed her eyes and slowly breathed in and out.
[00:08:21 --> 00:08:22] She opened the door
[00:08:22 --> 00:08:25] and was flooded with the warmth of the chapel's.
[00:08:25 --> 00:08:27] Subtle beauty led only
[00:08:27 --> 00:08:30] by the sanctuary lamp burning next to the tabernacle.
[00:08:30 --> 00:08:32] She fell prostrate
[00:08:32 --> 00:08:36] and said in a whisper, Jesus, on this Thursday evening,
[00:08:36 --> 00:08:38] I want to be with you in your agony at the
[00:08:38 --> 00:08:40] Garden of Gethsemane.
[00:08:40 --> 00:08:44] Just as you have instructed me, she pushed herself up
[00:08:44 --> 00:08:45] until she was kneeling.
[00:08:45 --> 00:08:49] She leaned back and rested on the heels of her feet
[00:08:49 --> 00:08:51] and gazed at Jesus in the tabernacle.
[00:08:57 --> 00:09:01] Sister Margaret. Sister Margaret said a voice.
[00:09:02 --> 00:09:04] Sister Margaret. Mary opened her eyes.
[00:09:05 --> 00:09:09] Mother's Superior was standing over her gently shaking
[00:09:09 --> 00:09:11] her sister Margaret.
[00:09:11 --> 00:09:15] Mary blinked and looked around the chapel light poured in
[00:09:15 --> 00:09:17] through the stained glass windows.
[00:09:17 --> 00:09:20] Did I fall asleep again as Sister Margaret Mary,
[00:09:20 --> 00:09:23] you did send Mother Superior.
[00:09:23 --> 00:09:25] You need your sleep. Sister Margaret.
[00:09:25 --> 00:09:27] You're right, said Sister Margaret.
[00:09:27 --> 00:09:30] Mary, I will try to be in bed at a better time.
[00:09:32 --> 00:09:36] Mother Superior, hesitantly, sighed Sister Margaret.
[00:09:36 --> 00:09:39] She said, I need to speak with you. Come with me.
[00:09:40 --> 00:09:42] Mother Superior put her arm around.
[00:09:42 --> 00:09:45] Sister Margaret Mary and walked her out of the chapel,
[00:09:45 --> 00:09:49] down the hallway and into her private office.
[00:09:49 --> 00:09:51] Sunlight flooded the room
[00:09:51 --> 00:09:53] and Sister Margaret Mary winced,
[00:09:53 --> 00:09:55] shielding her eyes from the brightness.
[00:09:56 --> 00:09:59] Mother Superior closed the curtains on either side,
[00:09:59 --> 00:10:01] and Sister Margaret Mary said, thank you.
[00:10:02 --> 00:10:05] As Sister Margaret, Mary's eyes adjusted.
[00:10:05 --> 00:10:08] She saw that there were five men standing in the room, three
[00:10:08 --> 00:10:10] of whom were priests,
[00:10:10 --> 00:10:13] and the other two scholars she recognized One
[00:10:13 --> 00:10:16] of the priests, father Claude, who was smiling at her.
[00:10:16 --> 00:10:18] The other men looked very harsh.
[00:10:19 --> 00:10:21] Please sit said Mother Superior.
[00:10:21 --> 00:10:24] As she motioned towards a chair near the center of the room,
[00:10:25 --> 00:10:28] sister slowly approached the chair looking at the men
[00:10:28 --> 00:10:33] as she timidly sat down, well said Mother Superior.
[00:10:33 --> 00:10:36] I have brought some experts here today.
[00:10:37 --> 00:10:41] Sister Margaret Mary folded her hands to calm her nerves.
[00:10:41 --> 00:10:43] Experts on what she asked.
[00:10:44 --> 00:10:47] One of the scholars stepped forward and said,
[00:10:47 --> 00:10:49] and has come to our attention that you claim
[00:10:49 --> 00:10:51] to be having visions of our Lord.
[00:10:52 --> 00:10:55] Sister Margaret Mary coiled in on herself
[00:10:55 --> 00:10:57] claim she asked.
[00:10:57 --> 00:11:01] The man continued. I must say it is extremely rare
[00:11:01 --> 00:11:04] that one is gifted with mystical encounters,
[00:11:04 --> 00:11:07] and I don't believe you are the type of person
[00:11:07 --> 00:11:09] who would receive such a gift.
[00:11:11 --> 00:11:13] Sister Margaret Mary swallowed in an attempt
[00:11:13 --> 00:11:15] to hold back her tears,
[00:11:15 --> 00:11:17] but she felt them streaming down her face.
[00:11:17 --> 00:11:22] Nonetheless, while I sister Margaret couldn't even get
[00:11:22 --> 00:11:27] her words out, she was so hurt by what she was hearing.
[00:11:27 --> 00:11:30] Her heart ached, but she silently prayed.
[00:11:30 --> 00:11:32] I unite my aching heart to yours.
[00:11:32 --> 00:11:36] Lord, the scholar continued.
[00:11:36 --> 00:11:39] We do not believe these visions to be authentic,
[00:11:39 --> 00:11:42] and we strongly encourage you not to speak to anyone
[00:11:42 --> 00:11:43] of these encounters.
[00:11:43 --> 00:11:46] You are likely experiencing delusions
[00:11:46 --> 00:11:49] and you ought to consider eating more.
[00:11:49 --> 00:11:52] If you fast too much, you may start to see things
[00:11:52 --> 00:11:54] that aren't there.
[00:11:54 --> 00:11:57] Sister Margaret Mary said through her tears,
[00:11:57 --> 00:12:00] Jesus wants us all to hear what He's telling me.
[00:12:01 --> 00:12:03] The scholar harshly said,
[00:12:03 --> 00:12:06] I don't think you're understanding.
[00:12:06 --> 00:12:10] Father Claude stepped forward and interrupted the scholar.
[00:12:10 --> 00:12:13] Pardon me, but you're being too harsh with the sister.
[00:12:13 --> 00:12:15] He extended his hand to Sister Margaret Mary
[00:12:15 --> 00:12:18] and said, good to see you, sister.
[00:12:18 --> 00:12:21] Sister Margaret. Mary Timidly extended her hand
[00:12:21 --> 00:12:23] and said, you as well, father.
[00:12:24 --> 00:12:26] Father Claude asked, may I talk
[00:12:26 --> 00:12:29] with you privately in the chapel
[00:12:29 --> 00:12:31] sister Margaret Mary nodded her head.
[00:12:31 --> 00:12:34] Father Claude gently helped Sister Margaret Mary out
[00:12:34 --> 00:12:37] of her chair and stepped out of the office.
[00:12:38 --> 00:12:40] Mother Superior looked at the other men not
[00:12:40 --> 00:12:42] knowing what to think.
[00:12:42 --> 00:12:45] They waited a long time until the office door opened
[00:12:45 --> 00:12:47] and Father Claude entered.
[00:12:47 --> 00:12:50] He gently closed the door behind him, smiled
[00:12:50 --> 00:12:53] and let out a friendly sigh of relief.
[00:12:53 --> 00:12:55] The sister is telling the truth.
[00:12:55 --> 00:12:58] He said Her humility and simplicity speak for themselves.
[00:12:59 --> 00:13:02] She has all the makings of a mystic
[00:13:02 --> 00:13:04] and her visions are all in a alignment
[00:13:04 --> 00:13:06] with the heart of God.
[00:13:06 --> 00:13:09] The other men rolled their eyes and scoffed,
[00:13:09 --> 00:13:12] but Father Claude continued smiling.
[00:13:12 --> 00:13:15] Where is she? Asked Mother Superior.
[00:13:15 --> 00:13:18] She's in the chapel praying, said Father Claude.
[00:13:18 --> 00:13:22] He continued. Mother Superior. May I have a word with you?
[00:13:23 --> 00:13:25] Mother Superior nodded her head
[00:13:25 --> 00:13:27] and stepped out of the office with Father Claude
[00:13:30 --> 00:13:31] mother Superior.
[00:13:31 --> 00:13:34] He said, I believe this young sister
[00:13:34 --> 00:13:36] to be a very special case.
[00:13:36 --> 00:13:38] Cherish her. It is a gift
[00:13:38 --> 00:13:41] to have a delicate soul like this in your care.
[00:13:42 --> 00:13:44] I believe that the encounters she is having
[00:13:44 --> 00:13:46] with our Lord should be listened to
[00:13:46 --> 00:13:50] and given time even taken to our Holy Father.
[00:13:50 --> 00:13:54] The Pope mother's superior's, eyes grew wide.
[00:13:54 --> 00:13:59] Father Claude said. It is, of course up to your discernment,
[00:13:59 --> 00:14:01] but I think she would make an excellent superior.
[00:14:01 --> 00:14:05] One day, mother Superior was surprised
[00:14:05 --> 00:14:08] and had a hard time gathering her thoughts,
[00:14:08 --> 00:14:10] but she was able to muster up the words.
[00:14:10 --> 00:14:12] Well, thank you Father.
[00:14:12 --> 00:14:14] Father Claude smiled
[00:14:14 --> 00:14:18] and gently squeezed mother superior's hand in affection,
[00:14:18 --> 00:14:20] mother Superior let out a deep sigh.
[00:14:20 --> 00:14:24] She walked on the hallway to the chapel, opened the door
[00:14:24 --> 00:14:26] and peeked inside to look at Sister Margaret.
[00:14:26 --> 00:14:30] Mary praying. She saw in this young woman a level
[00:14:30 --> 00:14:33] of peace she had never encountered before.
[00:14:34 --> 00:14:37] Mother superior's eyes followed the gaze
[00:14:37 --> 00:14:41] of Sister Margaret Mary to the tabernacle,
[00:14:41 --> 00:14:45] and she became entranced as she pondered all
[00:14:45 --> 00:14:46] that Father Claude had said,
[00:14:50 --> 00:14:52] whoa, that heart isn't just beautiful.
[00:14:52 --> 00:14:56] It's a message. Jesus's sacred heart shows us
[00:14:56 --> 00:14:58] how much he loves us.
[00:14:58 --> 00:15:02] His heart is on fire with love wrapped in thorns
[00:15:02 --> 00:15:05] because he suffered for us and topped with a cross
[00:15:05 --> 00:15:08] because he gave everything to bring us close.
[00:15:08 --> 00:15:11] So when you see the sacred heart, remember Jesus loves you
[00:15:11 --> 00:15:13] with his whole heart.
[00:15:13 --> 00:15:14] Thanks for watching today, friends,
[00:15:14 --> 00:15:16] and don't forget to subscribe so
[00:15:16 --> 00:15:19] that we can keep building up our faith together.
[00:15:19 --> 00:15:20] See you next time. Now
[00:15:20 --> 00:15:23] that we've learned about the sacred heart of Jesus,
[00:15:23 --> 00:15:26] let's look at the Holy Family.
[00:15:26 --> 00:15:29] Jesus, Mary and Joseph all show us how to love God
[00:15:29 --> 00:15:31] with our whole hearts.
[00:15:31 --> 00:15:34] What's something you love about your family?
[00:15:34 --> 00:15:36] Maybe it's how your mom hugs you
[00:15:36 --> 00:15:38] or how your dad plays games,
[00:15:38 --> 00:15:41] or maybe when everyone is together for your favorite meal.
[00:15:41 --> 00:15:43] Well, God loves family too.
[00:15:43 --> 00:15:46] So much that he sent his son Jesus to be born
[00:15:46 --> 00:15:48] to the best family ever.
[00:15:48 --> 00:15:50] The Holy Family.
[00:15:50 --> 00:15:54] The Holy Family is made up of three very special people.
[00:15:54 --> 00:15:57] Jesus, Mary and Joseph.
[00:15:57 --> 00:16:02] They are an example of love, faith, and trust in God.
[00:16:02 --> 00:16:05] Well, let's meet them and learn more Jews.
[00:16:08 --> 00:16:12] First, we have Jesus. Jesus is the son of God.
[00:16:12 --> 00:16:15] He came to earth to teach us about God's love
[00:16:15 --> 00:16:17] and to save us from our sins.
[00:16:18 --> 00:16:21] He grew up a lot like you and me learning and playing,
[00:16:21 --> 00:16:24] but he was special and he had a very special mission.
[00:16:25 --> 00:16:28] He taught everyone about God's kingdom
[00:16:28 --> 00:16:30] and died for our sins.
[00:16:34 --> 00:16:37] Next we have Mary. Mary is Jesus' mother.
[00:16:39 --> 00:16:42] She was chosen by God to be the mother of his son
[00:16:42 --> 00:16:44] because she was full of grace
[00:16:44 --> 00:16:46] and always trusted in God's plan.
[00:16:51 --> 00:16:54] She loved Jesus very much and took care of him.
[00:17:50 --> 00:17:54] And then there's Joseph. Joseph was a carpenter.
[00:17:54 --> 00:17:56] He built furniture and other things out of wood.
[00:18:06 --> 00:18:09] He protected and provided for Jesus and Mary.
[00:18:11 --> 00:18:15] He always listened to God's messages and did what was right.
[00:19:23 --> 00:19:25] You will also notice that Jesus, Mary,
[00:19:25 --> 00:19:29] and Joseph have very interesting hearts.
[00:19:29 --> 00:19:32] The three hearts of the Holy family are the sacred heart
[00:19:32 --> 00:19:35] of Jesus, the immaculate heart of Mary
[00:19:35 --> 00:19:37] and the chaste heart of St.
[00:19:37 --> 00:19:40] Joseph. Each heart has its own special meaning.
[00:19:42 --> 00:19:45] The sacred heart of Jesus has a flame to show
[00:19:45 --> 00:19:47] how Jesus's love burns for us.
[00:19:54 --> 00:19:56] It also has a crown of thorns
[00:19:56 --> 00:20:01] and a wound in its side that reminds us
[00:20:01 --> 00:20:03] of Jesus dying on the cross for us.
[00:20:03 --> 00:20:07] It reminds us how badly our sin hurts Jesus' heart,
[00:20:10 --> 00:20:12] but Jesus loves us so much.
[00:20:12 --> 00:20:15] He was willing to sacrifice his own life to save us.
[00:20:19 --> 00:20:21] The immaculate heart of Mary is shown
[00:20:21 --> 00:20:24] with a sword piercing the heart and surrounded by roses.
[00:20:29 --> 00:20:30] This heart shows us
[00:20:30 --> 00:20:35] how much pain Mary felt seeing her son Jesus be crucified.
[00:20:40 --> 00:20:44] It also symbolizes her purity and love for God.
[00:20:44 --> 00:20:48] Her yes to God's will and the mission of Jesus.
[00:21:03 --> 00:21:07] The third heart is the most chased heart of St. Joseph.
[00:21:10 --> 00:21:12] His heart is shown with lilies around it,
[00:21:12 --> 00:21:16] representing his chastity as the earthly father of Jesus.
[00:21:24 --> 00:21:27] Joseph loved and protected his family with all of his heart.
[00:21:29 --> 00:21:32] Sometimes his heart is also shown with carpenter tools
[00:21:32 --> 00:21:35] to remind us how hard he worked for his family.
[00:21:42 --> 00:21:45] The hearts of the Holy family are so cool.
[00:21:45 --> 00:21:47] They really show us how much Jesus, Mary
[00:21:47 --> 00:21:51] and Joseph loved each other, loved God and love us.
[00:23:44 --> 00:23:46] Remember when the angel Gabriel came to Mary
[00:23:46 --> 00:23:51] and told her God wanted her to be the mother of Jesus?
[00:23:51 --> 00:23:54] Mary was probably so scared, but she said yes
[00:23:54 --> 00:23:57] because she trusted God with all of her heart.
[00:23:58 --> 00:24:02] Joseph was freaked out when he found out about Mary having a
[00:24:02 --> 00:24:04] baby from God.
[00:24:04 --> 00:24:06] What would other people around town think?
[00:24:06 --> 00:24:10] They'll probably think I'm crazy. I don't wanna do this,
[00:24:16 --> 00:24:18] but God sent an angel to Joseph.
[00:24:21 --> 00:24:24] Joseph, you don't have to worry so much.
[00:24:24 --> 00:24:29] God will be with you. You will be a wonderful dad to Jesus.
[00:24:36 --> 00:24:38] I'm sorry Mary.
[00:24:38 --> 00:24:43] I'll be your husband and I'll love this baby Jesus.
[00:24:43 --> 00:24:45] Oh, Joseph, I love you so much.
[00:24:47 --> 00:24:50] And then when it was time for Jesus to be born,
[00:24:50 --> 00:24:54] the Holy Family had to travel very far to Bethlehem.
[00:24:54 --> 00:24:57] There were no hotels for them to stay at, so they had
[00:24:57 --> 00:25:00] to stay in a barn and that's where Jesus was born.
[00:25:01 --> 00:25:04] It wasn't ideal, but they stuck together as a family.
[00:25:05 --> 00:25:10] The Holy Family is amazing and it's the coolest family ever,
[00:25:10 --> 00:25:13] but in a lot of ways they're like your family too.
[00:25:13 --> 00:25:16] They have worries and they have troubles,
[00:25:16 --> 00:25:19] but they put all of their love and trust in God
[00:25:19 --> 00:25:21] and that helps them love each other more
[00:25:21 --> 00:25:23] and help them get through anything.
[00:25:24 --> 00:25:26] Well, thank you so much for coloring
[00:25:26 --> 00:25:28] and getting to know the Holy Family today.
[00:25:28 --> 00:25:32] Check out the description for this coloring page, the Dolls
[00:25:32 --> 00:25:34] and More from The Little Rose Shop,
[00:25:34 --> 00:25:37] and don't forget to subscribe to Juice Box
[00:25:37 --> 00:25:38] for more fun videos.
[00:25:38 --> 00:25:41] See you next time, friends. Bye.
[00:25:41 --> 00:25:44] The sacred heart shows us that Jesus loves us
[00:25:44 --> 00:25:47] and Divine mercy shows us that his love is full
[00:25:47 --> 00:25:48] of forgiveness.
[00:25:48 --> 00:25:50] Jesus wants us to trust him
[00:25:50 --> 00:25:53] and run back to him when we need mercy.
[00:25:53 --> 00:25:56] Hi, it's Di with a special prayer video.
[00:25:56 --> 00:25:59] Today will be all about the Divine Mercy chaplain.
[00:25:59 --> 00:26:01] You might have seen this image,
[00:26:01 --> 00:26:03] but we'll tell you all about it
[00:26:03 --> 00:26:06] and we'll also show you how to pray it with some
[00:26:06 --> 00:26:09] of my juice box friends just to have a little extra fun.
[00:26:09 --> 00:26:13] We'll also recreate the image from Legos. Let's get started.
[00:26:14 --> 00:26:19] Juice found. - Okay, let's go.
[00:26:19 --> 00:26:22] What is the divine mercy and where did it come from?
[00:26:22 --> 00:26:25] Divine mercy is a prayer.
[00:26:25 --> 00:26:27] It came from us sister
[00:26:29 --> 00:26:32] that was really close to Jesus.
[00:26:32 --> 00:26:36] Do you remember her name? That sounds right.
[00:26:36 --> 00:26:40] She was praying and Jesus came
[00:26:40 --> 00:26:43] and asked to paint an
[00:26:44 --> 00:26:48] and he also taught her this special divine mercy. Prayer.
[00:26:48 --> 00:26:52] Mercy, that's a big word. Do you know what it means?
[00:26:53 --> 00:26:57] Mercy is when you have power, but you use it for good.
[00:26:57 --> 00:26:59] God has mercy for us
[00:26:59 --> 00:27:01] because even though we do bad stuff,
[00:27:01 --> 00:27:03] he forgives us and loves us.
[00:27:03 --> 00:27:07] Yay. Do you think God has a little bit of mercy
[00:27:07 --> 00:27:08] or a lot of mercy?
[00:27:08 --> 00:27:11] He has an ocean of mercy.
[00:27:11 --> 00:27:15] What does the image of the divine mercy look like?
[00:27:15 --> 00:27:17] Jesus was raising his hand
[00:27:17 --> 00:27:20] and out of his heart was coming a
[00:27:21 --> 00:27:22] red rays and the blue rays
[00:27:23 --> 00:27:25] Blue and red.
[00:27:25 --> 00:27:28] That's interesting. What do those rays mean?
[00:27:28 --> 00:27:32] The red means how much he loves us
[00:27:32 --> 00:27:37] and the water means when he washes off all
[00:27:37 --> 00:27:38] of our bad stuff.
[00:27:38 --> 00:27:42] It sounds like Jesus has a lot of mercy for us. Everyone
[00:27:42 --> 00:27:44] Gets God's love.
[00:27:44 --> 00:27:45] That sounds amazing.
[00:27:45 --> 00:27:48] I'm going to try to make my own divine mercy image out
[00:27:48 --> 00:27:49] of these legos.
[00:27:49 --> 00:27:51] Should we try to pray the chaplain? It's
[00:27:51 --> 00:27:53] Time to pray.
[00:27:53 --> 00:27:56] Yay. I can't wait for us to all pray together.
[00:27:56 --> 00:27:59] I asked some of my other juice box friends to help us.
[00:27:59 --> 00:28:02] If you have a rosary, you can use one.
[00:28:02 --> 00:28:05] First we make the sign of the cross
[00:28:05 --> 00:28:06] And the name of the Father
[00:28:06 --> 00:28:10] and the sun, the Holy Spirit. Amen.
[00:28:10 --> 00:28:12] Then we say this three times.
[00:28:12 --> 00:28:16] Oh, blood and water, which gushed forth from the heart
[00:28:16 --> 00:28:19] of Jesus as a fountain of mercy for us.
[00:28:19 --> 00:28:21] I trust in you.
[00:28:21 --> 00:28:25] Oh, blood and water that gust from the heart of Jesus
[00:28:25 --> 00:28:28] as a fountain of mercy for us.
[00:28:28 --> 00:28:29] I trust in you.
[00:28:29 --> 00:28:33] Oh, blood and water which gushed forth from the heart
[00:28:33 --> 00:28:36] of Jesus as a fountain of mercy for us.
[00:28:36 --> 00:28:37] I trust in you.
[00:28:37 --> 00:28:39] Then we say the Lord's prayer.
[00:28:39 --> 00:28:42] We say that our Father on the first little beat
[00:28:42 --> 00:28:47] Our father horn heaven - Be by kingdom.
[00:28:47 --> 00:28:49] Come th will be done
[00:28:49 --> 00:28:51] On earth as it is in heaven.
[00:28:51 --> 00:28:56] Give F. Stay our dairy with and forgive us our trespasses
[00:28:57 --> 00:29:00] As we forgive those who dress pierce against us
[00:29:00 --> 00:29:03] And lead us not into temptation.
[00:29:03 --> 00:29:05] They lost from amen.
[00:29:05 --> 00:29:08] That was great. On the next little bead, we pray,
[00:29:08 --> 00:29:09] the hail Mary,
[00:29:09 --> 00:29:13] Hail Mary, full of grace. The Lord is worth
[00:29:13 --> 00:29:14] Bless.
[00:29:14 --> 00:29:15] You are among women
[00:29:15 --> 00:29:18] And blesses the fruit of D Jesus Jesus.
[00:29:18 --> 00:29:21] Holy Mary, mother of God, pray for us sin enemies now.
[00:29:21 --> 00:29:24] Now, now we're. Amen. Amen.
[00:29:24 --> 00:29:27] And then say the apostles creed once.
[00:29:27 --> 00:29:29] Oh, I know this one. I can do it.
[00:29:29 --> 00:29:34] I believe in God, the Father Almighty, creator of heaven
[00:29:34 --> 00:29:39] and earth and in Jesus Christ, his only son, our Lord
[00:29:39 --> 00:29:42] who is conceived by the holy born
[00:29:42 --> 00:29:47] of the Virgin Mary suffered under Pontius Pilate was
[00:29:47 --> 00:29:50] crucified, died, and was buried.
[00:29:50 --> 00:29:52] He descended into hell.
[00:29:52 --> 00:29:55] The third day he rose again from the dead.
[00:29:55 --> 00:29:59] He ascended into heaven, seated at the right hand of God,
[00:29:59 --> 00:30:01] the Father Almighty.
[00:30:01 --> 00:30:05] From there he shall come to judge the living and the dead.
[00:30:05 --> 00:30:09] I believe in the Holy Spirit, the holy Catholic church,
[00:30:09 --> 00:30:13] the communion of saints, the forgiveness of sins,
[00:30:13 --> 00:30:17] the resurrection of the body and life everlasting.
[00:30:17 --> 00:30:21] Amen on this be that's by itself.
[00:30:21 --> 00:30:25] We say the eternal Father. I'll help you with that one too.
[00:30:25 --> 00:30:30] Eternal Father, I offer you the body and blood, soul,
[00:30:30 --> 00:30:32] and divinity of your dearly beloved son,
[00:30:32 --> 00:30:36] our Lord Jesus Christ in atonement for our sins
[00:30:36 --> 00:30:39] and for those of the whole world.
[00:30:39 --> 00:30:42] On each of the 10 small beads, let's say
[00:30:42 --> 00:30:46] For the sake of his sorrowful passion, have mercy on us
[00:30:46 --> 00:30:48] and on the whole world.
[00:30:48 --> 00:30:50] For the sake of his sorrowful passion,
[00:30:50 --> 00:30:53] have mercy on us and the whole world.
[00:30:53 --> 00:30:57] For the sake of sorrowful passion, have mercy on us
[00:30:57 --> 00:30:59] and on the whole world.
[00:30:59 --> 00:31:03] For the sake of his sorrowful passion, have mercy on us
[00:31:03 --> 00:31:04] and on the whole world.
[00:31:04 --> 00:31:07] For the sake of his sorrowful passion, have mercy
[00:31:07 --> 00:31:09] for us and the whole world.
[00:31:09 --> 00:31:13] For the sake of his sorrowful passion, have mercy on us
[00:31:13 --> 00:31:14] and on the whole world.
[00:31:14 --> 00:31:18] For the sake of his sorrowful passion, have mercy on us
[00:31:18 --> 00:31:20] and on the whole world. For the
[00:31:20 --> 00:31:23] Sake of his sorrowful passion, have mercy
[00:31:23 --> 00:31:25] for us and the whole world.
[00:31:25 --> 00:31:29] For the sake of his sorrowful passion, have mercy on us
[00:31:29 --> 00:31:31] and on the whole world.
[00:31:31 --> 00:31:35] For the sake of his sorrowful passion, have mercy on us
[00:31:35 --> 00:31:37] and on the whole world.
[00:31:37 --> 00:31:40] If you want to do the whole divine mercy, go all the way
[00:31:40 --> 00:31:45] around and do all the beats, but today we'll just do 10.
[00:31:45 --> 00:31:49] Okay, we're almost done. To finish up the divine mercy.
[00:31:49 --> 00:31:51] This is what we'll say three times.
[00:31:51 --> 00:31:55] Holy God, holy mighty, one, holy immortal, one,
[00:31:55 --> 00:31:58] have mercy on us and the whole world.
[00:31:58 --> 00:32:02] Holy God. Holy mighty one, holy immortal, one,
[00:32:02 --> 00:32:05] have mercy on us and the whole world.
[00:32:05 --> 00:32:08] Holy God. Holy mighty one, holy immortal, one,
[00:32:08 --> 00:32:12] Have mercy on us and the whole world
[00:32:12 --> 00:32:16] and by making the sign of the cross the name of the
[00:32:17 --> 00:32:19] sign of the Holy Spirit.
[00:32:19 --> 00:32:22] Amen. That was kind of hard.
[00:32:22 --> 00:32:23] That is a long prayer,
[00:32:23 --> 00:32:27] but it makes Jesus so happy when we pray it, especially
[00:32:27 --> 00:32:29] for those that need his love most.
[00:32:29 --> 00:32:32] Let's take a look at our divine mercy image.
[00:32:32 --> 00:32:35] That looks great. I can't wait to pray
[00:32:35 --> 00:32:37] with you next time. Bye. He
[00:32:38 --> 00:32:40] Loves you, - So
[00:32:40 --> 00:32:44] how do we receive Jesus's mercy in a special way?
[00:32:44 --> 00:32:47] One beautiful way is confession. In confession.
[00:32:47 --> 00:32:49] Jesus forgives our sins
[00:32:49 --> 00:32:52] and helps our hearts become clean again.
[00:32:52 --> 00:32:53] Hi kids. My name is Dili
[00:32:53 --> 00:32:57] and today we're building this super cool Lego confessional.
[00:32:57 --> 00:32:59] Do you know what confession is?
[00:32:59 --> 00:33:03] Let me tell you all about it. As we build juice.
[00:33:03 --> 00:33:07] Bomb Confession is one
[00:33:07 --> 00:33:08] of the seven sacraments.
[00:33:08 --> 00:33:12] Sacraments are special gifts from God.
[00:33:12 --> 00:33:14] It involves some kind of sign
[00:33:14 --> 00:33:18] or real life thing that we can see or touch or hear.
[00:33:18 --> 00:33:20] Confession is when you tell your sins
[00:33:20 --> 00:33:24] to a priest in the sacrament of confession, you hear
[00:33:24 --> 00:33:27] through the priest the words of Jesus forgiving you.
[00:33:28 --> 00:33:31] Ignoring our sins doesn't make them go away,
[00:33:31 --> 00:33:35] so just like you go to the doctor to heal when you're sick
[00:33:35 --> 00:33:40] or break a bone, going to confession heals us of our sins.
[00:33:40 --> 00:33:43] Jesus gave priests that special job of helping us.
[00:33:44 --> 00:33:46] Do you know what sin is?
[00:33:47 --> 00:33:49] Sin is when we do something that is wrong
[00:33:49 --> 00:33:51] and makes you turn away from God.
[00:33:51 --> 00:33:56] Hmm. God wants
[00:33:56 --> 00:33:58] to be our friend and when we do bad things,
[00:33:58 --> 00:34:00] it hurts our friendship.
[00:34:01 --> 00:34:04] So when you go to confession, it's like telling your friend
[00:34:04 --> 00:34:07] that you're really sorry and then you can be friends again
[00:34:07 --> 00:34:10] and the best part, God will always forgive you.
[00:34:12 --> 00:34:13] Do you know what to do in confession?
[00:34:14 --> 00:34:17] Let me help you first.
[00:34:17 --> 00:34:20] Pray to the Holy Spirit and ask for help.
[00:34:20 --> 00:34:22] Sometimes we need extra courage.
[00:34:22 --> 00:34:25] It can feel scary, but there's nothing to be scared of.
[00:34:25 --> 00:34:27] Confession will make you feel better.
[00:34:27 --> 00:34:29] Think about the things that you're really sorry about
[00:34:29 --> 00:34:31] and make you feel icky.
[00:34:31 --> 00:34:32] Ask yourself some questions.
[00:34:32 --> 00:34:34] If you're having trouble thinking
[00:34:34 --> 00:34:36] of something, here are a few.
[00:34:37 --> 00:34:39] Have I prayed every day?
[00:34:40 --> 00:34:43] Am I trying my best at everything or am I being lazy?
[00:34:44 --> 00:34:47] Have I been respectful to my parents and my teachers?
[00:34:48 --> 00:34:51] Have I gotten mad at my friends or hit somebody?
[00:34:52 --> 00:34:54] Am I having trouble forgiving someone?
[00:34:55 --> 00:34:58] Nothing is too big or too small to say.
[00:35:05 --> 00:35:08] When you walk into the confessional, make the sign
[00:35:08 --> 00:35:12] of the cross in the name of the Father and the Son
[00:35:12 --> 00:35:13] and the Holy Spirit.
[00:35:14 --> 00:35:17] Then tell the priest your sins. Be honest.
[00:35:18 --> 00:35:22] Feel free to tell him why you did them if you need to,
[00:35:22 --> 00:35:23] it might feel like the priest is going
[00:35:23 --> 00:35:26] to be upset at you, but he won't.
[00:35:26 --> 00:35:28] He won't judge you and he won't tell anyone.
[00:35:28 --> 00:35:32] He's not allowed to. He has to keep it a secret forever.
[00:35:36 --> 00:35:38] Wow, we're not done building yet.
[00:35:44 --> 00:35:46] When you're done with your confession,
[00:35:46 --> 00:35:49] the priest will give you some advice and app penance.
[00:35:49 --> 00:35:50] This may be a prayer
[00:35:50 --> 00:35:53] or something nice you have to do for someone else.
[00:35:54 --> 00:35:56] A penance isn't a punishment.
[00:35:56 --> 00:35:58] It shows that you really are sorry
[00:35:58 --> 00:35:59] and you want to do better.
[00:36:08 --> 00:36:10] Wow. Whoa, those are so cool.
[00:36:10 --> 00:36:13] In a confessional, when the light is red, someone is inside
[00:36:13 --> 00:36:14] and you have to wait your turn.
[00:36:16 --> 00:36:19] After you receive app penance, the priest will ask you
[00:36:19 --> 00:36:21] to say the act of contrition.
[00:36:21 --> 00:36:24] That's a prayer you say to God saying how sorry you are
[00:36:26 --> 00:36:29] and promising you'll try not to do bad things anymore.
[00:36:29 --> 00:36:31] Your act of contrition may be something like this.
[00:36:32 --> 00:36:36] Dear God, I am very sorry that I have sinned.
[00:36:36 --> 00:36:39] You are so good and I have hurt our friendship.
[00:36:39 --> 00:36:41] With your help, I will not sin again
[00:36:41 --> 00:36:43] and promise to do better.
[00:36:43 --> 00:36:48] Amen. If you ever forget what to say in
[00:36:48 --> 00:36:49] confession, don't worry.
[00:36:49 --> 00:36:51] The priest is there to help you.
[00:36:53 --> 00:36:55] The coolest part of confession is the absolution.
[00:36:57 --> 00:37:00] The priest will raise his hands and ask God to forgive you.
[00:37:00 --> 00:37:03] In the name of the church, he will say,
[00:37:03 --> 00:37:06] I absolve you from your sins in the name of the Father
[00:37:06 --> 00:37:09] and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit.
[00:37:09 --> 00:37:11] When he does that, your soul will be clean
[00:37:11 --> 00:37:13] like it took a shower.
[00:37:13 --> 00:37:16] Don't forget to do your penance as soon as you can.
[00:37:16 --> 00:37:19] Confession is awesome and feels really nice.
[00:37:36 --> 00:37:38] The priest is wearing a stole.
[00:37:38 --> 00:37:41] This symbolizes that his job is very important.
[00:37:41 --> 00:37:45] That's kind of like when a police officer wears his badge.
[00:37:45 --> 00:37:46] The stole is purple
[00:37:46 --> 00:37:48] because purple represents healing, which is
[00:37:48 --> 00:37:50] what is happening when we go to confession.
[00:38:07 --> 00:38:09] I hope you liked building my new Lego
[00:38:09 --> 00:38:11] and learning about confession.
[00:38:11 --> 00:38:12] Come back soon and see
[00:38:12 --> 00:38:14] what other cool toys I'll be sharing with you.
[00:38:14 --> 00:38:18] Bye. Jesus doesn't just love us from far away.
[00:38:18 --> 00:38:21] He comes close to us in the Eucharist.
[00:38:21 --> 00:38:23] Corpus Christi means we celebrate the body
[00:38:23 --> 00:38:25] and blood of Jesus.
[00:38:25 --> 00:38:28] Have you noticed that at church we talk a lot about bread.
[00:38:28 --> 00:38:32] I love bread, pizza, bread, cheesy bread,
[00:38:32 --> 00:38:35] lemon bread, banana bread.
[00:38:35 --> 00:38:38] Well, I wanna talk about the best bread of all time,
[00:38:39 --> 00:38:40] Bread with butter.
[00:38:40 --> 00:38:42] Even better. We're talking about the bread of life.
[00:38:42 --> 00:38:44] Jesus himself,
[00:38:44 --> 00:38:47] and we're gonna talk about a feast called Corpus Christi.
[00:38:47 --> 00:38:50] Oh, I think I had a girl named Christi in my class Once.
[00:38:50 --> 00:38:53] Corpus Christi isn't a person. It's Latin.
[00:38:53 --> 00:38:57] Corpus means a body, and then Christi means of Christ.
[00:38:57 --> 00:39:00] The body of Christ.
[00:39:00 --> 00:39:02] Exactly. That's the feast where we celebrate
[00:39:02 --> 00:39:06] that Jesus is truly present in the bread we receive at mass.
[00:39:06 --> 00:39:09] You have me a bread, juice barn.
[00:39:11 --> 00:39:15] I don't get it. How is Jesus like breath?
[00:39:15 --> 00:39:17] Do you remember what Jesus said at the last supper?
[00:39:17 --> 00:39:20] This is my body which is giving up for you.
[00:39:20 --> 00:39:23] Do this in memory of me.
[00:39:23 --> 00:39:26] So he really meant it. It's not pretend.
[00:39:26 --> 00:39:27] What he says was real.
[00:39:27 --> 00:39:30] He wants to stay close to us in a very real way,
[00:39:30 --> 00:39:32] and Jesus taught this even
[00:39:32 --> 00:39:36] before the last supper in John chapter six, he said,
[00:39:36 --> 00:39:38] I am the living bread that came down from heaven.
[00:39:38 --> 00:39:40] Whoever eats my flesh
[00:39:40 --> 00:39:44] and drinks, my blood will have life in him.
[00:39:44 --> 00:39:46] That sounds kind of mysterious.
[00:39:46 --> 00:39:49] It's a mystery, but we call a sacrament something
[00:39:49 --> 00:39:51] that we see on the outside,
[00:39:51 --> 00:39:55] but something even greater that's going on on the inside.
[00:39:55 --> 00:39:57] The Eucharist is like super bread.
[00:39:57 --> 00:40:02] You can call it heavenly bread. Let's make a mons stamp.
[00:40:02 --> 00:40:05] That's the golden thing that holds the Eucharist
[00:40:05 --> 00:40:07] during adoration.
[00:40:07 --> 00:40:09] It's like a Jesus spotlight.
[00:40:09 --> 00:40:11] I like finding fun crafts in this book.
[00:40:11 --> 00:40:14] I think there was something with a monster in here.
[00:40:17 --> 00:40:19] It looks like the sun on the stand.
[00:40:48 --> 00:40:49] Let's try the step.
[00:40:56 --> 00:41:00] It worked. - I'll paint in
[00:41:00 --> 00:41:01] the part that didn't step.
[00:41:05 --> 00:41:05] That looks good.
[00:41:11 --> 00:41:13] What's the streamer stuff for?
[00:41:14 --> 00:41:17] On Corpus Christi, people have processions.
[00:41:17 --> 00:41:19] It's like a holy parade.
[00:41:19 --> 00:41:20] I love parades.
[00:41:20 --> 00:41:24] When we have a procession, we do it outside of the church
[00:41:24 --> 00:41:27] and we show other people outside of the church
[00:41:27 --> 00:41:30] that we're walking because we think Jesus is important
[00:41:30 --> 00:41:31] and that Jesus is important not just
[00:41:31 --> 00:41:34] for us, but he's important. The whole world.
[00:41:34 --> 00:41:36] Let's make one for the procession.
[00:41:56 --> 00:41:58] I looked a little crazy.
[00:42:01 --> 00:42:04] So Jesus is really in the bread
[00:42:04 --> 00:42:06] and he wants to be close to us.
[00:42:06 --> 00:42:09] Yes, that's what Corpus Christi is all about.
[00:42:09 --> 00:42:12] Jesus loves us so much that he made himself present
[00:42:12 --> 00:42:14] for us always.
[00:42:14 --> 00:42:16] Thanks Jesus and thanks for the bread.
[00:42:16 --> 00:42:19] Thank you friends, and I'll see you next time.
[00:42:19 --> 00:42:20] Bye juice boxers.
[00:42:20 --> 00:42:24] We've learned so much about Jesus's sacred heart,
[00:42:24 --> 00:42:27] his mercy, his forgiveness, and the Eucharist.
[00:42:27 --> 00:42:30] Now let's make something beautiful to remember His love.
[00:42:30 --> 00:42:32] Love comes in all kinds of forms
[00:42:32 --> 00:42:34] besides just for sweethearts.
[00:42:34 --> 00:42:38] You can show love to your parents, siblings, friends,
[00:42:38 --> 00:42:39] or anyone you care about.
[00:42:39 --> 00:42:43] The greatest love of all is the love Jesus Christ has
[00:42:43 --> 00:42:44] for us today.
[00:42:44 --> 00:42:46] We get to celebrate that love we feel
[00:42:46 --> 00:42:48] for the people in our lives.
[00:42:48 --> 00:42:50] And what better way to celebrate than
[00:42:50 --> 00:42:52] to give others a valentine?
[00:42:52 --> 00:42:55] Today I'll show you how to make Valentine's in the shapes
[00:42:55 --> 00:42:57] of the most merciful hearts.
[00:42:57 --> 00:43:01] The merciful heart of Jesus and Mary Juice bark.
[00:43:04 --> 00:43:06] The merciful hearts became really important.
[00:43:06 --> 00:43:11] A long time ago during the Middle Ages, St.
[00:43:11 --> 00:43:14] Margaret, Mary had lots of visions about these hearts
[00:43:14 --> 00:43:16] and how much Jesus and Mary Love us.
[00:43:17 --> 00:43:19] She shared all her stories so
[00:43:19 --> 00:43:23] that everyone could learn about God's love and mercy.
[00:43:23 --> 00:43:27] The most famous of the hearts is a sacred heart of Jesus.
[00:43:27 --> 00:43:29] It's a symbol of Jesus's amazing love
[00:43:29 --> 00:43:31] and mercy for all of us.
[00:43:32 --> 00:43:36] Mercy means that even when we mess up, Jesus forgives us
[00:43:36 --> 00:43:38] and still loves us so much.
[00:43:40 --> 00:43:42] The sacred heart of Jesus is shown
[00:43:42 --> 00:43:44] with flames coming from it to show
[00:43:44 --> 00:43:46] how his love burns for us.
[00:43:49 --> 00:43:51] It also has thorns around it.
[00:43:51 --> 00:43:53] Can you guess what that reminds us of?
[00:43:56 --> 00:43:58] That's right. The crown of thorns
[00:43:58 --> 00:44:00] that Jesus wore when he died for us,
[00:44:02 --> 00:44:04] the thorns remind us of the pain he went through
[00:44:04 --> 00:44:06] to take away our sins.
[00:44:09 --> 00:44:13] This sacred heart reminds us of the never ending mercy
[00:44:13 --> 00:44:15] and love Jesus has for us.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)

What is the Sacred Heart of Jesus?

The Sacred Heart of Jesus is a Catholic devotion that helps us contemplate Christ Himself: His love, mercy, and sacrifice. It points to the love Jesus continually shows the Father and all people.

How do you explain the Sacred Heart of Jesus to kids?

A simple way to explain the Sacred Heart to kids is this: Jesus loves you with His whole Heart. The flames remind us of His burning love, the thorns remind us of His suffering, and the cross reminds us of His saving sacrifice.

Is the Sacred Heart just a symbol?

No. The Sacred Heart is not just a picture or symbol. It points us to Jesus Himself and helps awaken and nourish faith in the mystery of Christ.

Why are there flames, thorns, and a cross on the Sacred Heart?

They each tell part of the story. Flames show Jesus' love is on fire. Thorns remind us of the suffering and wounds Jesus endured for us. The cross shows His sacrifice and how He gave everything to bring us to God.

Why is the Sacred Heart important for kids?

Because kids need a simple, strong reminder that Jesus' love is real, especially when they feel scared, guilty, or alone. The Sacred Heart teaches that Jesus doesn't get tired of loving us. It helps us want to stay close to Him in prayer and draws us toward the sacraments, especially Holy Communion (with the first Friday being a well-known devotion). And it reminds us that Sunday Mass is always first.
