Family Reflection Video: Jubilee Year of Mercy

Family Reflection Video: Jubilee Year of Mercy

celebration  |  inspiration

Our God is a God of love and His mercy endures forever!

With one month left of the Jubilee Year of Mercy, let us pause briefly today to think about how merciful Our Lord is.

God is full of power and majesty … and somehow manages to provide us with mercy. In all His authority, He chooses to save and heal us. Why? Because He knows we cannot do it on our own.

As a family, pray Pope Francis’ beautiful prayer for the Jubilee Year of Mercy together and discuss ways each of you can show mercy to one another and others.

Let us pray together that your family and all families around the world will grow to be more merciful like Our Father in heaven. Amen.
