The Feast of Mercy
The Words that Christ spoke to Sister Faustina and

The Extraordinary Graces of Divine Mercy Sunday.
 † My daughter, tell the whole world about My Inconceivable mercy. I desire that the Feast of Mercy be a refuge and shelter for all souls,
      and  especially for poor sinners.
 † On that day the very depths of My tender mercy are open. I pour out a whole ocean of graces upon those 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.
 † On that day all the divine floodgates through which grace flow are opened.
 † Let no soul fear to draw near to Me, even though its sins be as scarlet.
 † My mercy is so great that no mind, be it of man or of angel, will be able to fathom it throughout all eternity.
 † Everything that exists has come forth from the very depths of My most tender mercy.
 † Every soul in its relation to Me will I contemplate My love and mercy throughout eternity.
 † The Feast of Mercy emerged from My very depths of tenderness.
 It is My desire that it be solemnly celebrated on the first Sunday after Easter.
 † Mankind will not have peace until it turns to the Fount of My Mercy. (Diary 699)


IMPORTANT UPDATE:
WORLD MERCY CONGRESS

The first World Mercy Congress will begin on the third anniversary of the death of Pope John Paul II April 2-6, 2008, in Rome, Italy, with Pope Benedict the XVI presiding.  Pope John Paul II helped ignite a spark that created a movement of mercy in the Church and needs to be passed on to the world.  In the years 2009-10 National Mercy Congresses will start in the United States, Mexico, Europe, Latin America, Oceania, and Asia.
