Her spiritual director told her to record the revelations that she received about God's mercy. The desires and promises of Our Lord are recorded in the diary of Saint Faustina Kowalska. This Feast, was granted to the Universal Church by Pope John Paul II on the occasion of the canonization of Sr. Faustina on April 30, 2000. (Diary, 699) 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… To observe the Feast of Divine Mercy, we should: Celebrate the Feast on the Sunday after Easter Sincerely repent of our sins: Place our complete trust in Jesus Go to Confession (3 weeks or 20 days before or after Divine Mercy Sunday) Receive Holy Communion on the day of the Feast Venerate (an act or gesture of deep respect) the image of Divine Mercy Say the prayers required for the Plenary Indulgence as stated above. Be merciful to others in our actions, words and prayers for them.

Para mas información: www.divinemercy.org www.ewtn.com DOOR OF MERCY Pope Francis speaks on plenary indulgence on this Year of Mercy which include indulgence given to those who will enter into this holy door. http://w2.vatican.va/content/francesco/en/letters/2015/ documents/papa-francesco_20150901_lettera-indulgenzagiubileo-misericordia.html PLENARY INDULGENCE Pope Francis offers the opportunity to be closer to God on this Year of Mercy. He wants us all to work for our holiness, but this entails opening our heart to others, especially to the most poor and abandoned. As a special motivation to encourage us on this, we are offered a gift that the Church has to bring salvation to others and it is called Plenary Indulgence. The Plenary Indulgence is a more complete forgiveness, as it provides purification that is necessary to come before God. The Catechism says: “An indulgence is a remission before God of the temporal punishment due to sins whose guilt has already been forgiven, which the faithful Christian who is duly disposed gains under certain prescribed conditions through the action of the Church which, as the minister of redemption, dispenses and applies with authority the treasury of the satisfactions of Christ and the saints” (1471). The way to gain a plenary indulgence is both very simple and very difficult at the same time, here you have the external conditions: 1. Go through the door of the Year of Mercy. This is a pilgrimage to the temple with the intention of starting a true conversion. 2. Go to Confession with this same intention. 3. Receive Holy Communion with the desire to practice the mercy that Jesus taught us. 4. Recite the Creed, or prayer expressed as the faith of the Church. 5. Pray for the Holy Father and his intentions. 6. The Pope also notes that you can obtain the Plenary Indulgence when we practice the Works of Mercy, because this way we become like Christ. The hardest condition to gain the plenary indulgence is letting go of all attachments to sin. Be free for God, loving our brothers and sisters. That is why gaining the indulgence is painful; it is sacrifice because it means breaking with all that separates us from God. The purpose of the Holy Year is that we work every day so that our desires are God’s desires, or so that in our lives we are truly capable of doing God’s will, loving our brothers and sisters. The Pope explains that the sick who cannot make this pilgrimage may obtain the grace of the Holy Year, living this difficult year with joy, receiving the Eucharist, and attending Mass albeit electronically (Internet, TV, Radio). The Pope has also thought of the imprisoned and invites them to join this effort of purification participating through personal prayer thinking about their own conversion when they cross the door of their cell. PUERTA DE LA MISERICORDIA El Papa Francisco habla sobre la Indulgencia Plenaria en este año de Misericordia que se le concederá a los que entrarán por dicha puerta Santa de la indulgencia. http://w2.vatican.va/content/francesco/en/letters/2015/ documents/papa-francesco_20150901_lettera-indulgenzagiubileo-misericordia.html INDULGENCIA PLENARIA El Papa Francisco ofrece la oportunidad de estar más cerca de Dios en Este año de Misericordia. Él quiere que todos trabajemos por nuestra santidad, aunque esto implique abrir nuestro corazón a los demás, especialmente a los más pobres y abandonados. Como una motivación especial para animarnos a lograr esto, la iglesia nos ofrece un regalo para traer salvación a otros y se llama indulgencia plenaria. La indulgencia plenaria es un perdón más completo ya que proporciona la purificación necesaria para presentarse ante Dios. El Catecismo dice: “La indulgencia es la remisión ante Dios de la pena temporal por los pecados, ya perdonados en cuanto a la culpa, que un fiel dispuesto y cumpliendo determinadas condiciones consigue por mediación de la Iglesia, la cual, como administradora de la redención, distribuye y aplica con autoridad el tesoro de las satisfacciones de Cristo y de los santos” (1471). La manera de ganar una indulgencia plenaria es muy simple y muy difícil al mismo tiempo, estas son las condiciones externas: 1. Pasar por la puerta del Año de la Misericordia. Se trata de una peregrinación al templo con la intención de iniciar una verdadera conversión. 2. Confesarse con esta misma intención. 3. Recibir la Sagrada comunión con el deseo de practicar la misericordia que Jesús nos enseñó. 4. Recitar el credo, o alguna otra oración expresada en la fe de la iglesia. 5. Orar por el Santo Padre y sus intenciones. 6. El Papa también señala que se puede obtener la Indulgencia Plenaria cuando practicamos las obras de Misericordia, porque de esta manera nos convertimos como Cristo. La condición más difícil para ganar la Indulgencia Plenaria es soltar todas las ataduras que nos unen al pecado. Estar libre para Dios, amar a nuestros hermanos y hermanas. Por eso ganar la Indulgencia es doloroso ; es sacrificio porque significa romper con todo lo que nos separa de Dios. El objetivo del Año Santo es que trabajemos cada día para que nuestros deseos sean los deseos de Dios, o que en nuestras vidas seamos verdaderamente capaces de hacer la voluntad de Dios, amara a nuestros hermanos y hermanas. El Papa explica que los enfermos que no pueden hacer esta peregrinación pueden obtener la gracia del año santo, viviendo este año difícil con alegría, recibiendo la Eucaristía y asistiendo a Misa aunque sea vía electrónica (Internet, TV, Radio). El Papa también ha pensado en los encarcelados y les invita a unirse a este esfuerzo de purificación participando a través del pensamiento de oración personal sobre su propia conversión al cruzar la puerta de su celda.
