Having celebrated the Feast of Divine Mercy on the 2nd Sunday of Easter, on the 3rd Sunday we are reminded that Divine Mercy continues to act down to the present day. As Tony explains, God’s Mercy is present and active in our world through the Church and its members, who Jesus entrusts with carrying on His mission through history. Concretely, this looks like living out the corporeal and spiritual works of mercy.
