Divine Mercy Sunday

Born in 1905, Saint Faustina joined the Congregation of the Sisters of Our Lady of Mercy at age 20.  While at the convent, beginning in February 1931, she received revelations from Jesus who communicated to her the depth of his mercy and his desire that all be merciful to one another. The Lord also shared with her his desire that a feast day be dedicated to Divine Mercy and that it be celebrated on the Sunday after Easter. On May 5, 2000, Pope Saint John Paul II decreed that the Second Sunday of Easter would be known as Divine Mercy Sunday. On April 11th, 2021, EWTN is televising a Divine Mercy preview show at noon followed by Mass and Celebration of Divine Mercy from the National Shrine of the Divine Mercy in Stockbridge, MA, at 1:30pm. Jesus, I trust in you!
