The Image of Divine Mercy
The Image of Divine Mercy is one of the three greatest images in the history of Sacred Art (along with the Shroud of Turin and Our Lady of Guadalupe). So what makes this icon so important? Why did Jesus say He wants it in every home and why did he offer so many promises to those who do? What is the theology behind it? In addition, there are several versions of the Divine Mercy Image. Which version has the most graces? Once again this week, Fr. Chris Alar, MIC and Vinny Flynn discuss the elements of the Divine Mercy devotion and specifically, the Image of Divine Mercy. Learn more about how the veneration of this Image can help bring about abundant graces.
Watch Fr. Chris Alar and the Marian Fathers and Brothers from the National Shrine of Divine Mercy on our new show Living Divine Mercy airing every Wednesday at 6:30 p.m. ET on EWTN. Through teaching segments, Bible and St. Faustina 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!
