The Immaculate Heart of Mary

In the devotion to the Immaculate Heart of Mary, the attraction is the love of her heart for Jesus and for God. Like all good mothers, she teaches us how to love her Son so that we respond through study and imitation. In this holy image expressed as an icon, Mary is bowing her head towards her Son, a perfect companion to the Sacred Heart of Jesus icon.

The Immaculate Heart of Mary also symbolizes her purity, her boundless compassion, and her role as a spiritual mother to all. Her heart, surrounded by roses or pierced by a sword, reflects her deep love and sorrow, inviting us to unite our joys and sufferings with hers. Through this devotion, we are encouraged to grow in humility, selflessness, and a closer relationship with Christ by following Mary’s example of perfect obedience and trust in God’s plan.

This beautiful icon is perfect for personal devotion or as an inspiring addition to sacred spaces. Where in your home would it go...?
