The Feast of Divine Mercy Sunday is occurring this weekend on 7 April. 

Celebrated on the first Sunday after Easter, Divine Mercy Sunday focuses on the gift of mercy and love given through Christ’s death, burial and resurrection.

“Our goal to show to the contemporary lost man the richness of God’s Mercy, from the source of which he can draw strength every day to become a more readable icon of God’s presence in today’s world,” says Fr Lukasz Mazurek, director of London's Divine Mercy Apostolate in Ealing, which will be celebrating the Feast day with Masses and various prayers and processions throughout the day. 

Today the world is “hurting” and “needs to hear the Good News of God’s Merciful love as never before,” notes the Apostolate's website. “Therefore, we need courageous apostles of His Mercy to proclaim this message to the world.”
