Hello, just a reminder of Divine mercy Sunday this year, here is an extract from a website about the greatness of the feast:
The Lord expressed His will with regard to this feast in His very first revelation to St. Faustina. The most comprehensive revelation can be found in her Diary entry 699:
My daughter, tell the whole world about My inconceivable mercy. I desire that the Feast of Mercy be a refuge and a shelter for all souls, and especially for poor sinners. On that day the very depths of My tender mercy are open. I pour out a whole ocean of graces upon those souls who approach the fount of My mercy. The soul that will go to Confession and receive Holy Communion shall obtain complete forgiveness of sins and punishment. On that day are opened all the divine floodgates through which graces flow. Let no soul fear to draw near to Me, even though its sins be as scarlet. My mercy is so great that no mind, be it of man or of angel, will be able to fathom it throughout all eternity. Everything that exists has come from the very depths of My most tender mercy. Every soul in its relation to Me will contemplate My love and mercy throughout eternity. The Feast of Mercy emerged from My very depths of tenderness. It is My desire that it be solemnly celebrated on the first Sunday after Easter. Mankind will not have peace until it turns to the Fount of My mercy.

My parish observes it every year. Extra-big-deal this year, with the canonization of Blessed John Paul II.
 
I always look forward to it but it isn’t much more than a normal Mass where I am, no blessing of the Image or anything.
 
Its going to be a wonderful day this year with the canonizations- and we now have another Pope who understands and proclaims the message of Divine Mercy

The Divine Mercy Novena begins on Good Friday, too! For anyone who wants to devote the nine days of prayer in preparation.

Peace.

I look forward to the Divine Mercy Sunday. I love it.

The parish I live in now doesn’t celebrate Divine Mercy Sunday. Well at least they didn’t celebrate it last Easter. That was my first Easter here. This will be my second and I’ve not heard a peep out of anyone about it. I don’t think they will be celebrating this year either. If I want to celebrate it, I need to either keep it in my heart or travel elsewhere for the day. 😦
