Divine Mercy Sunday, April 11, 2021
CTK - Christ the King ...
Mankind’s need for the message of Divine Mercy took on dire urgency in the
twentieth century, when civilization began to experience an “eclipse of the sense
of God,” and therefore, to lose the understanding of the sanctity and inherent
dignity of human life. In 1931, Jesus appeared to Sr. Faustina in Poland and
expressed his desire for a feast celebrating his mercy. The Feast of Mercy was to
be on the Sunday after Easter and was to include a public blessing and liturgical
veneration of His image with the inscription “Jesus, I trust in You.

This promise of mercy has been affirmed by the Church, which has made Divine
Mercy Sunday an occasion for receiving a plenary indulgence, “the remission
before God of the temporal punishment due to sin whose guilt has already been
forgiven” (CCC, no. 1471). The plenary indulgence is granted to the faithful under
the usual conditions (Confession, Eucharist, prayer for the intentions of the pope,
and complete detachment from sin, even venial sin). The faithful may either take
part in the prayers and devotions held in honor of Divine Mercy in any church or
chapel or recite the Our Father and Creed in the presence of the Blessed
Sacrament exposed or reserved in the tabernacle, adding a devout prayer to the
merciful Lord Jesus.

There are many aspects of the Divine Mercy devotion, including the Chaplet, the
Divine Mercy image, and the “hour of great mercy” (3:00 p.m.). The popularity of
these devotions, focused on the Lord’s infinite mercy, has grown rapidly in recent
decades. Regarding the Chaplet of Divine Mercy, St. Faustina wrote that Jesus
said to her, “At the hour of their death, I defend as My own glory every soul that
will say this chaplet; or when others say it for a dying person “ (Divine Mercy in My
Soul, no. 811).
