DIVINE MERCY SUNDAY
APRIL 8, 2018
First Reading: Acts 4:32-35 This passage describes the actions of the first community of Christians. They were of “one heart and one mind.” They had no rich or poor among them, for they shared all necessary items with one another.
Second Reading: I John 5:1-6 John explains that we become God’s children by believing in Jesus. When we love God and concern ourselves only with pleasing God, our faith is strong enough to conquer the evil in our world.
Gospel: John 20:19-31 Jesus appeared to the disciples despite locked doors,
breathed on them so that they could receive the Holy Spirit, and gave them the power to forgive sins in his name. Thomas, who was not present, refused to believe without seeing Jesus for himself. Jesus appeared again when Thomas was present, and told him, “Blest are they who have not seen and have believed.”

PARISH DIVINE MERCY CHAPLETTE
THIS SUNDAY, APRIL 8th – 3 PM Please join us for the celebration of Divine Mercy Sunday right here in our own parish church. Divine Mercy Sunday is a very special Solemnity which is always celebrated on the first Sunday after Easter. It is a day that celebrates the merciful love of God shining through the whole of the Easter Triduum and the whole Easter mystery. It is a day of declaration of reparation for all sins. On this day, Jesus offers us the opportunity of receiving a plenary indulgence - the total forgiveness of all sins and punishment - to anyone who goes to confession (within 20 days of the feast) and receives Him in Holy Communion on that day. _____________________________________________
