Second Sunday of Easter / Divine Mercy Sunday April 19, 2020
Tithing is “Stewardship In Action”
Divine Mercy Sunday Pope John Paul II officially designated the
first Sunday after Easter as Divine Mer-cy Sunday. Jesus revealed
to Sister Faustina that on that day a person’s sins would be
for-given and the temporal punishment associated with them if
certain conditions are fulfilled: 1) Place complete trust in God’s
Mercy 2) Go to Confession-preferably before
that Sunday 3) Receive Communion on Divine Mercy Sunday 4)
Respect the image of the Most Merci-ful Savior
(A picture will be displayed on the side altar on the day)
5) Be merciful to others by your actions, words and prayers
DIVINE MERCY NOVENA: The Divine Mercy Novena allows one to more
fully experience the mercy that Jesus extends to all. The novena
begins on Good Friday and can be said privately. There is one short
prayer for each of the nine days and the Divine Mercy chaplet
should be said at the same time. Pamphlets with the novena and the
chaplet will be at each entrance of the Church.

PRAYER CHAIN: Anyone in need of spiritual support may place
their requests on the prayer chain by calling Barbara at
215-345-6219.
From the Desk of Our Pastor Being pro life means supporting life
in all its stages and aspects. In particular, Christians today are
called to protect the right to life for the unborn and the elderly.
Some would have us believe that the stance one takes on these
critical issues in merely a question of one's personal philosophy.
The founders of our nation, however, sought to guarantee "the right
to life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness" for everyone.
Msgr. Charles H. Hagan
PETITION BOOK: The petition book is available in the rear
vestibule for those who wish to enter their concerns in that way.
Requests placed in the petition book are also honored in a general
way by the members of the prayer chain. The petition book will be
brought up to the altar the first Sunday of every month.
