Teresa & Deacon Dominick

I encourage you to set aside some time time during Holy Week to read and ponder EWTN’s Holy Week Page to learn all about why we commemorate Holy Week. Be sure to scroll down to the very bottom of the page to the excellent “Links” and “Devotions” they list there.Be sure to also visit the EWTN Special Programming Page for important programming for this holiest of weeks and into Easter and the Feast of Divine Mercy, including solemn events from Rome with Pope Francis.

Set your DVR or alarm to wake up to tune into Pope Francis’ “Ubi et Orbi” Blessing to the world (Sunday, 6amET on EWTN).

Check out Pope Francis’ Schedule for Holy Week and Easter HERE.

Divine Mercy Novena

On Good Friday, April 7th, we start the Divine Mercy Novena to pray for souls, as requested by Our Lord, to St. Faustina. Visit DivineMercy.org to learn about the Novena, a special nine day prayer ending just before Divine Mercy Sunday, and how to pray it.

Attached to this Novena is a Plenary Indulgence. Learn more about that here. To receive the Indulgence be sure to go to Confession within 8 days of the Feast of the Divine Mercy, and to receive more special graces be sure to receive the Eucharist on Divine Mercy Sunday, if you are able to receive it.
