The message of Divine Mercy Sunday is a powerful reminder of God’s infinite compassion and love for all people. It emphasizes that no matter how great our sins may be, God’s mercy is always greater.

The central theme is trust—trust in divine mercy and the assurance that anyone who approaches God with a sincere heart will never be turned away. The simple yet profound prayer, “Jesus, I trust in You,” captures the essence of this message, encouraging a deep surrender to divine love and forgiveness.

Divine Mercy Sunday calls for repentance, humility, and renewal through the sacraments, particularly Confession and the Eucharist. It is not just about receiving mercy but also about living it. The message urges us to be merciful to others, to forgive, to show kindness, and to be instruments of peace in our daily lives.

This message is especially important in a world marked by pain, division, and conflict. Divine Mercy invites us to reflect God’s love in our actions, reminding us that healing and transformation are possible. It is a call to trust, to forgive, and to live in the light of mercy every day—not just for ourselves, but for the sake of the world.

Your Priest,
