What is Divine Mercy Sunday?

Among all of the elements of devotion to the Divine Mercy requested by our Lord through Saint Maria Faustina Kowalska, the Feast of Mercy holds first place. The Lord’s will with regards to its establishment was already made known in His first revelations to the saint, as recorded in her Diary.

Our Lord’s explicit desire is that this feast be celebrated on the first Sunday after Easter.

On April 30, 2000, Pope John Paul II, during his homily at the canonization of Saint Faustina declaured:

“It is important then that we accept the whole message that comes to us from the word of God on this second Sunday of Easter, which now on throughout the Church will be called Divine Mercy Sunday.
