1 We Care Because We Pray Sunday of Divine Mercy April 8, 2018 Solemnity of the Divine Mercy By: Pisha Banaag Divine Mercy Sunday is celebrated on the 2nd Sunday of Easter. Based on a devotion to the Divine Mercy coming from documented revelations of Jesus to St. Faustina Kowlaska, it was declared a part of the official Church Calendar by Pope John Paul II when he canonized St. Faustina in He emphasized its importance in the context of resurrection during Easter naming Divine Mercy as the Easter gift that the Church receives from the risen Christ and offers to humanity. As recorded by St. Faustina in her diary, Jesus makes several promises of Grace and Mercy in relation to the Feast of Divine Mercy. One in particular is where Jesus offers us the total forgiveness of all sins and punishment to any soul who goes to Confession and receives Him in Holy Communion on that day. This means that these souls will immediately after death go to Heaven without suffering in Purgatory or without going to Hell. Likewise, plenary indulgences are also granted to Catholics who recite specifi c prayers on that day. Perhaps the most recognized image of the Divine Mercy is a depiction of Jesus based on a vision that St. Faustina had in He is shown as raising His right hand in blessing and pointing His left hand on His chest. From His left hand are two rays one red, which represents the blood of Jesus (the Life of Souls) and one pale blue, which represents water (with justify souls) -- often with the words Jesus, I trust in You at the bottom of the image. Beyond the Feast, devotees of the Divine Mercy can celebrate their devotion in other ways. These practices include the Divine Mercy Novena, the Chaplet of Divine Mercy (a series of prayers similar to the Rosary) and the Hour of Great Mercy (a time of prayer celebrated at 3 PM).

2 PARISH BULLETIN SUNBURN, SWEAT, AND SORENESS AT THE SHRINE OF THE DIVINE MERCY By: Elise P. Yabut Paint an image according to the pattern you see, with the inscription Jesus, I trust in You. He then went on to say that He wanted this image venerated in the chapel at the convent and then throughout the world. My face was sunburnt because of the scorching sun. My legs were sore because of all the walking in my journey. My clothes were all sweaty and wrinkled because of the crowds -- of different colors and shapes of people -- from all over the world. Yet these were not the focus of my journey this day. The Shrine of Divine Mercy in Kraków, Poland is the center of the message of God s Mercy. In its heart stands the chapel where the miraculous image of Merciful Jesus and the tomb of St. Faustina are to be found. The miraculous image of Merciful Jesus -- which was blessed by Sister Faustina s spiritual director on the fi rst Sunday after Easter is based on the Christological apparitions of Jesus reported by Saint Faustina Kowalska, known as the Apostle of Mercy. In my journey to the Shrine of the Divine Mercy last July 2016 for World Youth Day in Poland, I remember the beautiful, pure architecture of the Shrine made just for the Divine Mercy. The serene faces and stories on the different patron saints on poster; the faces of the pilgrims showcasing their great Faith -- the sight of them kneeling down on the fl oor and praying with tears in their eyes amidst hundreds of other Catholics; the gathering of different Catholics all over the world -- just to receive the graces of seeing the image of the Divine Mercy, inspired my own Faith. All this, for a marvelous painting of Jesus, with the inscription, Jesus, I trust in You -- the Divine Mercy. This sight made all the sunburn, the sweat, and the soreness of my body worth it. 2 Zoe Gonzales (left) and Elise Yabut (right) with a cardboard cut-out of Sr. Faustina Elise Yabut (left) and Zoe Gonzales (right) with the Shrine of Divine Mercy in the background
3 Forgiveness as a Grace from God By: Joyce Maglaque April 8, 2018 In 2014, sometime after my father completed chemotherapy, an alleged syndicate group, consisting of our former household help, attempted to extort money from our family, lest they would slander my father s name. Members of the law enforcement were apparently involved in the group. Processing the situation, I reeled in anger: at our community for allowing the group to reside there and our local government for the injustice. I abhorred our neighbors for gossiping about my family, especially since they also served Mass with my father. At work, my initial passion and excitement as a fi rst year Resident in Psychiatry diminished, and I did my duties begrudgingly, just meeting the bare minimums. I asked myself, What can a resident-in-training, who is on duty most of the time, earning minimum wage, do to help why am I so helpless? Soon, I also questioned God Why did You let this happen? I asked my dad why he continues serving in Mass despite what happened. He admitted that it was hard, but what else can he do than to have Faith and look at Jesus as an example: Jesus experiences were unjust, yet He still found it in His heart to pray and forgive people. I was speechless. I never realized how hatred could devour me. I kept thinking, It is easy to forgive but hard to forget. I then realized: a) Forgiveness is a purposeful act. It is not passive but rather, a process and a commitment to that process. My dad was able to move on because of his intent to eventually forgive. To forgive, I realized that I should fi rst have the grace of humility, which enabled me to believe that each of us is capable of committing wrongdoings and likewise capable of good acts and forgiving. I recognized the importance of understanding one s context and differentiating the act from the actual person (i.e. Our maid is not all bad). I also realized that we all carry our own crosses and no one is entitled to a life without challenges. b) Forgiveness is a grace from God. Who else can we hold on to in situations like these? Holding on to the anger made me at odds with myself, and the only way to attain peace was to return to God. Not wanting to forgive also isolated myself from God; Jesus life was full of tribulations and injustice from other people, yet He still forgave them. c) Forgiveness alleviates the burden in our souls. With this experience, I realized that holding on to anger made me angry with myself. I saw how anger impacted my work and also refl ected how disillusioned I became with people and life in general. I was wrong to harbor negative feelings towards God, towards my Parish and for my inauthentic patient care. When I committed to forgive and patiently allowed myself to go through the process, I became softer and more attuned with life again, allowing me to experience life in all its color. Slowly, accepting what happened and turning to the Father helped in coping with the situation. Letting go was freeing. I also learned not to judge the world as a dichotomy but also to look always at how all of us have the capacity to do good as well. Santuario de San Antonio Pastoral Team Fr. Baltazar A.
