The motto of the Missionaries of the Sacred Heart is: May the Sacred Heart of Jesus be loved everywhere![1] The priests, deacons and brothers of the Missionaries of the Sacred Heart are known as MSCs (from the Latin, Missionarii Sacratissimi Cordis). The international headquarters is in Rome with numerous communities throughout the world.[2]
