Loading... Please wait...The Immaculate Heart of Mary, also known as the Sacred Heart of Mary, is an image meant to invoke the inner strength and beauty of the Blessed Mother. She is traditionally depicted with Her heart pierced seven times, representing the seven sorrows or dolors, in this case replaced with a halo encircling Her heart. Roses wrap around Her heart as a symbol of Her enduring love and grace.
The pale colors of Mary's clothing allow for a meditative focus on her brilliant Immaculate Heart, and Her serene expression reminds us that even in moments of great sorrow or pain, one may find peace through the grace of God.
