DIVINE MERCY SUNDAY Divine Mercy Sunday is rooted in the writings of a poor Polish nun, St. Faustina Kowalska (1905–1938), and her revelations about God’s mercy. Her message is that God is merciful and loving and so must we be to others. Today is a national feast in Poland and is celebrated in the Vatican. Soon after St. Faustina was canonized in 2000, Pope John Paul II decreed that today be “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.” Since today’s readings touch on the sacrament of penance, it is a natural day to celebrate this devotion. DIVINO MISERICORDIO DOMINGO El domingo de la Divina Misericordia tiene sus raíces en los escritos de una pobre monga polaca, Sta. Faustina Kowalska, y sus revelaciones de la misericordia de Dios. Su mensaje es que Dios es misericordioso y amoroso y así debemos ser a los demás. Hoy es una fiesta nacional en Polonia y se celebra en el Vaticano. Poco después de que Sta. Faustina fue canonizada en el año 2000, el Papa Juan Pablo II decretó que hoy sea “una invitación perenne para que el mundo Cristiano afronta con confianza en la benevolencia divina, las dificultades y pruebas que la humanidad experimentará en los próximos años.” Puesto que las lecturas de hoy nos apuntan al Sacramento de la Penitencia, es un día natural para celebrar esta devoción.
