    This weekend we join Jesuit communities around the world in reconsecrating our lives, our work, and our Parish to the Sacred Heart of Jesus. During Mass, the presider will offer a prayer written by Servant of God Fr. Pedro Arrupe, S.J. in 1972, and we will respond with the Suscipe, the response to God's love with which St. Ignatius ends the Spiritual Exercises. During this prayer, we offer all that God has given us back to God in love and gratitude.
