Sunday, April 24, 2022: (Divine Mercy Sunday)

Jesus said: “My people, I love the little children, and I thank all of the parents and grandparents for entering their children into the First Penance and First Holy Communion programs of preparation. You enabled the children to be baptized and now they need Confession and Holy Communion as well. The parents are responsible for the souls of their children and their faith formation. It was appropriate that your priest invited all of the people to pray the Divine Mercy Chaplet on this feast of My Divine Mercy. You can also share in the Divine Mercy services at many of your churches this afternoon. Encourage your families to come to Sunday Mass and monthly Confession. I know you pray for the souls of your family every day, and continue to give them good example to help save their souls. This is why you are seeing your reward in encouraging Baptism, Holy Communion, and Confession for all of your children, grandchildren, and great grandchildren.”

(Afternoon Divine Mercy service) Jesus said: “My people, My mercy is the greatest on Mercy Sunday as you receive your plenary indulgence to make reparation for all of your sins. This blessing is given to those people, who pray the Divine Mercy Novena of St. Faustina, and come to Confession in the week before or after this Sunday. I am showing you the souls in the flames of lower purgatory. Your rosaries today can release souls from purgatory, especially those of your deceased family members. You have heard how souls are released from purgatory on Christmas and Easter, but they are also released on Divine Mercy Sunday. You were impressed at how many churches were having afternoon services for Divine Mercy Sunday this year. This is a special day, and people need to take advantage of My many mercies and graces that I am granting you on this day.”
