MARRIAGE TIP:
A rule of thumb
in marriage or parenting is to be careful what you take credit for lest you
also be willing to take the blame. Often success is earned but sometimes it’s
just good luck or good genes. Be humble today Find more Marriage Rx at www.foryourmarriage.org.

DIVINE MERCY SUNDAY: The Second Sunday of Easter has been named Divine Mercy Sunday, a yearly
invitation to Catholics to face, with confidence, the difficulties and trials
that persons experience throughout the year. Devotion to Divine Mercy was
promoted by Saint Faustina, a Polish nun born in Glogowiec, Poland, on August
25, 1905. She became a nun in the Congregation of the Sisters of Our Lady of
Mercy. Beginning on February 22, 1931, and through her death in 1938, Saint
Faustina received revelations and visits from Christ. In 1934, she began
recording these in a diary, Divine Mercy
in My Soul.

CANONIZATION:
Canonization is the formal recognition by the Catholic Church of the heroic
sanctity of one of its deceased members. By canonization a person’s name is
entered in the list of saints meaning that it is forever part of the Church’s
official list of those venerated universally by Catholics. This weekend two recent Popes will be
canonized in Rome. They are Angelo Giuseppe Roncalli (1881-1963), born in Italy
and former Pope John XXIII, and Karol Jozef Wojtyla. (1920-2005) born in
Wadowice, Poland and former Pope John Paul II.
