We continue with the Easter Octave praying the Glorious Mysteries of the Rosary all week in honor of Our Lord Jesus Christ’s resurrection.
Easter culminates this Sunday, April 12, with Divine Mercy Sunday, because MERCY is why Jesus came. The schedule is the following:
- (10:30 am) DOORS OPEN (not earlier) & Exposition of the Most Blessed Sacrament & Confessions (Fr. Steve Mateja & Fr. Alex)
- (12:00 pm) Talk: “The Gaze of Mercy” by Fr. Steve Mateja (Priest of Archdiocese of Detroit)
- (12:30 pm) Rosary: The Glorious Mysteries
- (1:00 pm) Holy Mass: Fr. Stever Mateja, presider & preacher; Fr. Alex Kratz, OFM concelebrant
- (2:15 pm) Exposition & Confessions: followed by the relic of St. Faustina: Veneration & Blessing
- (3:00 pm) Hour of Mercy: Chaplet of Divine Mercy chanted & Eucharistic Benediction
A Divine Mercy Sunday booklet will be provided (limited supply: first come, first serve).
Third Monday, April 20, is our Evening of Reparation—so important for the apocalyptic times. At 6:30 pm Doors Open, Eucharistic Exposition and Confession upon request. A 7:00 pm Holy Hour of Reparation follows as does a Mass of Reparation to conclude.
