The Feast of
D
Mercy
uring the course of Jesus’ revelations to Saint
Faustina on the Divine Mercy He asked on
numerous occasions that a feast day be dedicated to the
Divine Mercy and that this feast be celebrated on the
Sunday after Easter. The liturgical texts of that day, the 2nd
Sunday of Easter, concern the institution of the Sacrament
of Penance, the Tribunal of the Divine Mercy, and are thus
already suited to the request of Our Lord. This Feast,
which had already been granted to the nation of Poland
and been celebrated within Vatican City, was granted to
the Universal Church by Pope John Paul II on the occasion
of the canonization of Sr. Faustina on 30 April 2000.
In a decree dated 23 May 2000, the Congregation for
Divine Worship and the Discipline of the Sacraments
stated that “throughout the world the Second Sunday of
Easter will receive the name Divine Mercy Sunday, a
perennial invitation to the Christian world to face, with
confidence in divine benevolence, the difficulties and trials
that mankind will experience in the years to come.” These
papal acts represent the highest endorsement that the
Church can give to a private revelation, an act of papal
infallibility proclaiming the certain sanctity of the mystic,
and the granting of a universal feast, as requested by Our
Lord to St. Faustina.
Concerning the Feast of Mercy Jesus said:
“Whoever approaches the Fountain of Life on this day will be granted
complete forgiveness of sins and punishment.” (Diary of St. Faustina 300)
“I want the image solemnly blessed on the first Sunday after Easter, and
I want it to be venerated publicly so that every soul may know about
it.” (Diary of St. Faustina 341)
Sunday, April 12 at St. Mary Help of Christians
Divine Mercy Novena and Chaplet - 3:00 PM.
Sacramental Confession will be available
