SUNDAY 12th April 2026
Second Sunday of Easter (or Sunday of Divine Mercy)
On this Divine Mercy Sunday we recall the words of Saint Thomas Aquinas: “Mercy consists in bringing a thing out of non-being into being.” We see this transpire concretely in the life of the early Church. The believers “devoted themselves to the Apostles’ teaching and the fellowship, to the breaking of bread and the prayers”. They were filled with awe; they were witnesses of wondrous signs; they lived for the good of the other; they were selfless and generous; they overflowed with “glad and generous hearts”. God in “his great mercy” caused them—and us—“to be born again to a living hope” through the Resurrection of Jesus Christ. That is what the Apostle Thomas is looking for in the Lord’s open side.
