BURNING BUSH HOUSE OF PRAYER

COR SACRATISSIMUM IESU

“Lord Jesus, do whatever You want with us!”
Fr. Scott Ardinger, 11/27/04 opening mass

        “… I encourage the initiative known as "Burning Bush", promoted by Renewal in the Spirit. It is about incessant adoration, day and night, before the Blessed Sacrament; it is an invitation to the faithful to "return to the Upper Room", so that, united in contemplation of the Eucharistic Mystery, they  may intercede for full Christian unity and for the conversion of sinners.”

Through the generosity of the Missionaries of the Sacred Heart we are currently located at the Sacred Heart Villa in Center Valley, PA.

Mission Statement

Our mission is to follow the vision of Our Holy Father, Pope John Paul II, in fostering “the spirituality of Pentecost … as a renewed incentive to prayer, holiness, communion and proclamation.” Those who participate in the Burning Bush will be asked to selflessly offer themselves as a sacrifice of prayer for the life of the Church and the world. All those involved with The Most Sacred Heart of Jesus Burning Bush will offer praise, adoration, and intercession to the Heart of Jesus burning with love in the Most Blessed Sacrament. Our mission is rooted in returning to the Upper Room, the Cenacle, where Jesus both offered His Life in the Eucharist, leaving us a Perpetual Communion with Him, and after His Resurrection poured out the promised Gift of the Holy Spirit on Pentecost.

“It is the fullness of the Upper Room experience that the Holy Spirit wants to deepen in us, not only that of Pentecost but also of the Last Supper; always remembering that first the Upper Room was where Jesus established the Eucharist and the ministerial priesthood.”
Kim Catherine-Marie Kollins, her prophetic vision birthed the Burning Bush

“Adoration is the first attitude of man acknowledging that he is creature before his creator. It exalts the greatness of the Lord who made us (Psalm 95, 1-6) and the almighty power of the Savior who sets us free from evil...” (CCC 2628).

Father, I simply come to You
I come the way I am in all my poverty
I know I can come to You no matter what
I come to seek Your mercy and grace anew
Forgive me for my mistakes and failures
The times when I have lost my way
When my priorities have not been in a proper order
I accept anew the free gift of Your love that You offer me,
The free gift of life eternal through
Your son Jesus Christ
I acknowledge anew Jesus as Lord and Saviour  of my life
Father, I want to start anew today
Send Your Holy Spirit to fill my heart afresh
Let the fire of Your spirit purify my heart
Seize my heart in the fire of Your Love
Come in Your power and empower my life
Set free in me the gifts that You have for my life.
Stir a fervent desire to commune with You daily
Release the gift of true and preserving prayer
Transform me into a Burning Bush
Use me as an instrument for the building of
Your kingdom
In Jesus’ Name, for this I pray.
Amen

“…it is always an intercession that awaits and prepares for the intervention of the Savior God, the Lord of history” (CCC 2584).
