Morning Prayer - SUNDAY, 16 Apr 2023

LISTEN | Morning Prayer - April 16, 2023 | Second Sunday of Easter (Divine Mercy Sunday)

"I shall sing forever the Lord's mercy" (Ps 89)

Today is the Sunday of Divine Mercy, the Octave Day of Easter.

From Creation, God has revealed his nature as love itself, in Sacred Scripture and most perfectly in the life, Passion, death and Resurrection of his Son, Jesus.

The Divine Mercy Sunday origin is from a revelation to Saint Faustina, a Sister of Mercy in Poland who initiated the Divine Mercy devotion. Between 1930 and 1938 Jesus requested numerous times a Feast of Divine Mercy. On May 5, 2000, five days after the canonization of Saint Faustina, the Vatican decreed that the Second Sunday of Easter would henceforth be known as Divine Mercy Sunday.
