One of God’s Greatest Attributes is His Mercy. Today we as the Universal Church celebrate that very Ocean of His Mercy. Below is some history and facts about the Message of Divine Mercy. I hope you enjoy it. Have a Blessed Week and hope to see you at the special 3:00pm Mercy Holy Hour Today. Fr. Harrigan Pastor St. Pope John Paul II The Great Mercy Pope Pope John Paul II, both in his teaching and personal life, strove to live and teach the message of Divine Mercy. As the great Mercy Pope, he wrote an encyclical on Divine Mercy: "The Message of Divine Mercy has always been near and dear to me… which I took with me to the See of Peter and which it in a sense forms the image of this Pontificate." long time when he wrote his encyclical on Divine Mercy. Further, the Holy Father has frequently quoted from the Diary of St. Faustina and has prayed The Chaplet of The Divine Mercy at the saint’s tomb. Beyond the Life of John Paul II Given all these connections to Divine Mercy and St. Faustina, is it any wonder that Pope John Paul II died on the Vigil of Divine Mercy Sunday (the evening before the feast day), which fell that year on April 3. It is also no surprise that the Great Mercy Pope left us a message for Divine Mercy Sunday, which was read on the feast day by a Vatican official to the faithful in St. Peter’s after a Mass that had been celebrated for the repose of the soul of the Pope. Repeatedly Pope John Paul II has written and spoken about the need for us to turn to the mercy of God as the answer to the specific problems of our times. He has placed a strong and significant focus on the Divine Mercy message and devotion throughout his pontificate that will carry the Church long after his death. In his writings and homilies, he has described Divine Mercy as the answer to the world’s problems and the message of the third millennium. He beatified and canonized Sr. Maria Faustina Kowalska, the nun associated with the message, and he did it in Rome and not in Poland to underscore that Divine Mercy is for the whole world. Establishing Divine Mercy Sunday for the Entire Church When Pope John Paul canonized Sr. Faustina (making her St. Faustina), he also, on the same day, surprised the entire world by establishing Divine Mercy Sunday (the feast day associated with the message) as a feast day for the entire Church. The feast day falls on the Second Sunday of the Easter season. On that day, Pope John Paul II declared, "This is the happiest day of my life." Entrusting the World to Divine Mercy In 2002, the Pope entrusted the whole world to Divine Mercy when he consecrated the International Shrine of The Divine Mercy in Lagiewniki, a suburb of Krakow in Poland. This is where St. Faustina’s mortal remains are entombed. The saint lived in a convent nearby. The Pope himself remembers as a young man working in the Solvay Quarry, just a few meters from the present-day Shrine. He also says that he had been thinking about Sr. Faustina for a 2 April 12, 2015 Today’s Readings First Reading—With great power the apostles bore witness to the resurrection of the Lord Jesus (Acts 4:32-35). Psalm—Give thanks to the Lord for he is good, his love is everlasting (Psalm 118). Second Reading—The victory that conquers the world is our faith (1 John 5:1-6). Gospel—Blessed are those who have not seen and have believed (John 20:19-31). TODAY is Divine Mercy Sunday 12:00 Noon: Special Mass in the church 3:00 pm: In the church, there will be exposition of the Blessed Sacrament, the Chaplet of Divine Mercy in song, the Litany of Mercy, Benediction, and individual veneration of a first class relic of St. Faustina. The celebration will conclude with a reception in the parish center. Our Lord asked St. Faustina to pray and work towards establishing a feast of the Divine Mercy on the Sunday after Easter. He told her: “On this day, the very depths of My tender mercy are open. I pour out a whole ocean of graces upon souls who approach the fount of My Mercy. The soul that will go to confession and receive Holy Communion shall obtain complete forgiveness of sins and punishment.” (Diary of St. Faustina 699) John Paul II proclaimed Mercy Sunday an official feast of the church in April of 2000 when he canonized St. Maria Faustina. There will be free Divine Mercy Literature in English and Spanish available on the patio after all the morning masses. Of One Heart and Mind Reading about the faith of the early Christian believers can be a real inspiration to those of us who have been Christians for a long time, as well as for those who are newly baptized. Can you imagine people of this world being “of one heart and mind” as was the first community of believers? Today’s First Letter of John seems to hold the key to how this can be accomplished. Keeping God’s commandments and loving all of God’s children seems to be the start of being “of one heart and mind.” We live in a world that stresses differences—differences among religions, among races, between genders, and among economic classes. Today we are summoned to focus on what we all share in common on this fragile planet of ours.

Italian Mass, there will be a celebration of the feast of the Madonna dell’Arco. The Italian community has been long devoted to the Madonna dell’Arco. The name of the Madonna dell’Arco originates from an area where there were many aqueduct with arches (arco) and columns built during the Roman Empire. On one of these columns a devoted artist painted the image of the Blessed Virgin and Child. Many centuries later, youths were playing bocce ball near the shrine. After a clumsy throw, the ball of one of the players hit a tree that shaded the sacred shrine. The youth, blinded by anger, retrieved the ball and threw it against the image of Our Lady, hitting her the right cheek. To the shock of all those present, the cheek was seen to bleed, as if it were of real flesh. The original image is in the Sanctuary in Naples, Italy. Many miracles were recorded since then and in March 1675 for about a month, the image of Our Lady was seen surrounded by stars, while the right cheek appeared red with blood. A picture of the image of the Madonna dell’Arco was dedicated on January 27, 2013 at Mary Star by the Italian Catholic Federation and was placed in the Shrine of Saint John Joseph of the Cross. Please join us to celebrate the Feast Day of Our Lady of the Arch. Bring flowers from your garden to place them at the image. 4 Stella Maris Catholic Books & Gift Store Goal: $84,000.00 Amount pledged: $49,000.00 Spaghetti & Meatball Dinner Please join us for a Spaghetti and Meatball Dinner on Sunday, April 26, 2015 in honor of St. Restituta.

More information is available at marystar.org God’s Word Today Easter changes everything. Listen carefully to today’s Gospel passage, and notice the fact that this account includes Jesus breathing on his disciples. The same Greek word for breathing used in this passage also appears at the very beginning of the Bible. There, in Genesis, the Lord God breathes upon Adam, giving him life. In the Gospel passage, through this act of breathing on the disciples, the risen Jesus gives them new life. What does new life in the resurrected Christ look like? We need only look at the first reading to discover what a community of believers acts like when its members are living lives in the risen Christ. As we prepare to listen to the scriptures, let us pray that the breath of God will fill us with new life and help us live like the early Christian communities, when there was no needy person among them.
