In September, Pope Francis will publish an apostolic exhortation on the Sacred Heart of Jesus, Archbishop Luis Javier Argüello García of Valladolid, the president of the Spanish Episcopal Conference, said following a May 31 audience.
The Diocese of Autun, France, is celebrating a jubilee year in commemoration of the 350th anniversary of the apparitions of the Sacred Heart of Jesus to St. Margaret Mary Alacoque in Paray-le-Monial.
