RANDOM MUSINGS FROM THE TOP OF THE HILL

SUNDAY SERVICE

This weekend at Catholic mass you will note that this first Sunday after Easter, the second Sunday of Easter, is known as Divine Mercy Sunday.  This designation was established in the year 2000 by Pope John Paul II.

The readings you will hear from the New Testament and the Gospel lend themselves to this idea of Divine Mercy.  This day it is recalled that Jesus met with his Apostles after his death and gave to them the power to forgive or retain sin.

Let it be for us a reminder to pray to Jesus as our merciful God.  Say that even though we are sinners, we pray with faith in His mercy that He will be ever with us.
