You Are the Ocean of Mercy and Compassion

In a series of revelations to St. Maria Faustina Kowalska in the 1930s, our Lord called for a special feast day to be celebrated on the Sunday after Easter.  Today, we know that feast as Divine Mercy Sunday, named by Pope St. John Paul II at the canonization of St. Faustina on April 30, 2000. 

O Christ our God, you are the Ocean of mercy and compassion. Maronite Liturgy

Hosanna Sunday
As we prepare for the great week of the Lord's passion and death, and as we follow the Lord on the way to the cross, may we remain ever faithful to Him who is our Savior and Lord.

In our hands we carry olive branches and with love sing along with the children: “Blessed is he who comes in the name of the Lord.”
Hosanna Sunday Morning, second prayer, Maronite Liturgy.

​Tomorrow is the Feast Day of Saint Rafqa, the Maronite nun.
“Suffering always tormented her during the last twenty-nine years of her life. By it, Saint Rafqa always manifested a generous and passionate love for the redemption of her brothers, counting on her union with the crucified Christ for the strength to voluntarily accept and love the suffering as an authentic path to sainthood.” From the homily of Saint Pope John Paul II during the Canonization of Saint Rafqa.
