Joe Roesch, MIC, share the inspiring story of Our Lady of Kibeho (feast day: Nov. 28) and the good work of the Marian Fathers in Rwanda for the past 40 years, sharing God's Divine Mercy to serve people in need.

Chris Alar, MIC, and the Marian Fathers and Brothers from the National Shrine of The Divine Mercy on our weekly show, "Living Divine Mercy," airing on EWTN every Wednesday at 6:30 pm ET, with an encore presentation on Mondays at 9:00 am ET.  Through teaching segments, Bible and St. Faustina's Diary excerpts, as well as real-life examples of people who are living Divine Mercy in their lives, you will learn why Jesus said Divine Mercy is mankind's last hope of salvation!
