This weekend, we celebrate Divine Mercy Sunday. In 2000, Pope John Paul II declared that the second Sunday of the Easter season would be known as Divine Mercy Sunday. This reflects the devotion that so many Catholic faithful have to Christ’s divine mercy. Sister Faustina had Christ’s divine mercy revealed to her in visions in 1931, but this devotion also dates back to traditions in the early Church. God’s mercy meets us in the midst of our suffering and our brokenness. May the message of Divine Mercy Sunday be an integral part of our faith. Blessings to all of you as we commemorate Divine Mercy Sunday this week in the midst of our joyful Easter season. Father Lincoln.
