Divine Mercy Sunday | Year A
Ordinary Time
Experience the Power of Divine Mercy
Welcome to River Oaks Church, a community centered around faith and beliefs. We invite you to join us as we celebrate Divine Mercy Sunday, a special day in the liturgical calendar dedicated to reflecting on and embracing the merciful love of God.
Celebrating Divine Mercy Sunday
Divine Mercy Sunday is celebrated on the Sunday following Easter, as established by Saint Pope John Paul II in the year 2000. It is a day of devotion and reverence, where we honor the boundless mercy and love of God towards all humankind. This solemn and joyful occasion commemorates the resurrection of Jesus Christ and emphasizes the infinite mercy extended to sinners who seek forgiveness and redemption. At River Oaks Church, we believe in the power of God's mercy and its ability to transform lives.

A Time for Contemplation and Renewal
Divine Mercy Sunday provides a time of deep contemplation and renewal. It is an opportunity to reflect on our own lives and seek forgiveness for our shortcomings, while also extending mercy and forgiveness to others. It reminds us that no sin is too great to be forgiven, as long as we approach the throne of God with a contrite heart.
The Divine Mercy Chaplet
One of the central devotions associated with Divine Mercy Sunday is the Divine Mercy Chaplet. This powerful prayer combines the recitation of the Rosary and specific prayers invoking God's mercy. The chaplet highlights the profound message of God's love and mercy, as revealed to Saint Faustina Kowalska, a Polish nun and mystic.
During our Divine Mercy Sunday celebration, we gather as a community to recite the Divine Mercy Chaplet, immersing ourselves in its profound spirituality and seeking God's mercy for ourselves and the whole world.
