Happy Easter!
And a special hello to our sisters and brother who have visited this page within the last thirty days - from India, the Philippines, and the United States.
Eucharistic Miracle. The conversion of the atheist writer Andre Frossard, in the presence of the Holy Eucharist, has had great repercussions in the world. He himself recounted how his conversion came about in his book, God Exists. I Have Met Him (1969). Up to his final years, up to his final days, he would only say: “Since the time when I encountered God, I have never succeeded in growing tired of the mystery of God. Every day is something new for me. And if God exists, I should speak of it; if Christ is the Son of God, I should proclaim it loudly; if there is Life Eternal, I should preach it.”

Divine Mercy Sunday. April 8, 2018 is Divine Mercy Sunday. This great feast day is always celebrated on the first Sunday after Easter. The feast is a part of Easter and is the "concluding day of the Easter octave." The graces received are more abundant than a plenary indulgence, although a person may gain a plenary indulgence on that day, as well. Jesus promised that "The soul that will go to Confession and receive Holy Communion shall obtain the complete forgiveness of sins and punishment." He went on to say "I want to grant a complete pardon to the souls that will go to Confession and receive Holy Communion on the Feast of My Mercy."

We honor Jesus best by honoring Mary. "We never give more honour to Jesus than when we honour his Mother, and we honour her simply and solely to honour him all the more perfectly. We go to her only as a way leading to the goal we seek - Jesus, her Son." --Saint Louis Marie de Montfort.
