We wish you a blessed Divine Mercy Sunday. Here is the background of this most special devotion.

Fr. Maximo Stock explains the forgiveness at the center of Jesus' Passion and death. Although many of the figures at the center of the story understand who Jesus is, they do not understand what He has come to do.

We are judged with the justice and mercy of God. Indulgences help take away the punishments associated with our sin.

Msgr. Watkins reflects on Christ's successful defense of an adulterous woman from a crowd wishing to stone her and shares a meditation from St. Teresa of Calcutta, Mother Teresa, on Jesus' patience in waiting for us to invite him into our lives.

Do you identify with more with the younger brother or with the older brother? Do you fall more into legalism or worldliness?

Repent! And remember. This is a call to all of us, not just some, this Lent.

At the 7:00pm Mass Sundays, we continue our series on hope this Jubilee Year concentrating on the virtue of hope that is essential to Christians, a community of hope.

Msgr. Watkins urges us to focus on the purpose of Lent, rather than the shortcomings and trivial complaints. He reminds us that the substance and true purpose of our 40 day 40 night preparation is an act of love for Jesus and his sacrifice.

The Father will give His all to make sure you come to Him.

Here is how to make fully trained disciples.
