The Missionaries of the Sacred Heart are delighted to introduce a fresh new look and design. Along with the launch of our new website, we are delighted to reveal our new logo, which is a more modern representation of our traditional values and beliefs.
We’ve developed our new logo with our time-honoured mission in mind: “To be on earth the heart of God”. The main elements of our logo have not changed, as we continue to use the image of the Sacred Heart and the cross to represent our Society.
The Heart
The heart in our logo represents the heart of Christ, God’s compassionate love as it was made real on earth. The open heart creates an embrace, wrapping around the cross in a protective and caring way, just as our mission is to help and care for others in the image of God’s merciful love.
The Cross
 The cross in our logo represents Jesus. It is positioned in the middle of the Sacred Heart, as Jesus is right at the centre of everything that we stand for and do as Missionaries of the Sacred Heart. This is not a cross of pain or suffering, but a joyful celebration of the life of Christ and the love of God.
These elements come together to represent the Missionaries of the Sacred Heart and our ongoing work in today’s world. Our mission remains the same as ever: to make God’s love known everywhere and to everyone, without conditions. In the combination of the Sacred Heart and the Cross, our new MSC logo pays a respectful nod to our heritage, our history, and our traditions, while the new design also reflects our sense of hope and forward-thinking for the future of our missions.
Since our foundation in the 1800s, the Missionaries of the Sacred Heart have worked to make God’s love known throughout the world, bringing hope to the people and places that need it most. We now look ahead to a new and exciting chapter in the MSC story as we strive to continue this great work, growing and adapting to the different challenges and circumstances of today’s world. We hope you will join us on our journey.
