Blessed Michael Sopoćko: Why the Feast of the Divine Mercy

Hear Fr. Matthew Tomeny, MIC, read from Blessed Michael Sopoćko's article "The Feast of the Most Merciful Savior", arguing why the Feast of the Divine Mercy should be instituted and why Low Sunday (the Sunday after Easter) is the most suitable day for this feast. This article was originally published in Polish in 1947, and translated and published in English in 1952 by the Marians Fathers in Stockbridge, MA. (Nihil Obstat: Rt. Rev. Msgr. Grupa and Imprimatur: Edward Cardinal Mooney; Detroit, MI, 1951)

In his vow, he promised to promote and defend her honor even to the cost of his life. Today, Fr. Matt reminds us that this mission continues.
