Why Do We Do That - Catholic Life Explained Question: What is the story behind Divine Mercy Sunday? Answer: In Poland during the early 1930s, Jesus appeared to a religious sister, St. Maria Faustina Kowalska. These private reve-lations had one key theme: the love and mercy of God. The rele-vance of this message was evident then and would continue to
resound in importance throughout the social and political upheaval of the 20th century.
One of Jesus' requests was the insti-tution of a feast of God's mercy. St. Faustina records in her diary, "I desire that the Feast of mercy be a refuge and shelter for souls. let no soul fear to draw near to me. It is my desire that it be solemnly celebrated on the first Sunday after Easter" (Diary, no. 699). After St. Faustina's canonization in 2000, the Vatican declared that the Second Sunday of Easter would be known as Divine Mercy Sunday.
The greatest attribute of God is love and mercy.
-St. Faustina Kowalska
Divine Mercy Weekend is Coming Up In this week’s FORMED Pick, join Fr. Michael Gaitley on a breath-taking journey to uncover the reality of God’s merciful love. In this Telly-award-winning Augustine Institute series, Fr. Gaitley weaves together history, Sacred Scripture, the prophetic appari-tions of Fatima, and the world-changing witnesses of Sts.
