We come to know the heart of Jesus in daily personal prayer, and regular, more prolonged periods of prayer and reflection.
The inner dialog with Jesus which expresses itself as outward movement toward God’s people in mercy, justice, forgiveness, love and challenge is strengthened by actively sharing faith, prayer, and Eucharist in our local communities, workplaces and parishes.
Frances Cabrini was an ordinary woman who was transformed by a powerful, personal experience of God’s love as it was lived and symbolized in the life and heart of Jesus. She was on fire with that love. She experienced Jesus not only as one who was loved by God and who loved her, but also as one who was missioned or sent to share that love. This experience created in her an intimate personal relationship with Jesus and, at the same time, sent Frances out to the needs of the earth as missionary of his love.
