The heart of Jesus
The heart of Jesus (signalled by the Cross) in full: on the upper left hand edge the hand of God is to be seen pointing to the human heart. (The outline of God’s hand reminds us of the famous fresco by Michel Angelo)
The human heart
The human heart which with its hand, stretches upwards so as to touch the hand of God, through the heart of Jesus.
The circle with the meridian and parallels
The circle with the meridian and parallels represents the Earth, within which the heart of man lies hidden.
The face of St Michael Garicoïts
Behind the Heart of Jesus, in the middle distance, we can see the face of St Michael Garicoïts the 150 anniversary of whose death we are commemorating.
150
The number adds weight to the event which we are commemorating, that is the death of St Michael Garicoits
The circle
The circle within which the image is to be seen recalls the shape of the Host. The text is contained on two strips forming a network reminding us of the constant communion between Jesus and his Church.
