Where can I get a nice Sacred Heart badge?
« on: May 10, 2021, 09:09:08 PM »
I want to get an old fashioned looking Sacred Heart badge to put on my fleece jacket that would qualify for the indulgence granted by Pope Pius IX. I especially want to wear it in June cause it is Month of the Sacred Heart and I want to wear it in defiance to the sodomites celebrating their mortal sin that month. I found an Italian one that looks nice but I am not sure if it qualifies for the indulgence given by Pius IX. I also would like to make sure the badge has no text or the text in Latin, Italian, or French (the first and latter preferably) Let me know where I could find one for a cheaper price. Thanks for your answers in advance and God bless you.

You could check out Etsy and see if anyone has any vintage Sacred Heart badges there. Otherwise, it looks like the ones available are predominantly of the paper/felt/plastic variety. That one honestly looks like one of the best you will find, at least from my preliminary web search. I will let you know if I find any others.

I can't find much information about the indulgence granted by Pius IX. Would this work? This might be the original design of the Sacred Heart badges.

This site mentions the badge used by the Vendee when recounting the history of the Sacred Heart badge devotion. I suspect it might be acceptable, given the intent is to practice the devotion, I seriously doubt Our Lord would scrutinize the style of the badge itself (much like how brown Scapulars are miniature versions of the traditional garb of the Carmelites).
