Watch "Gospel Picnic" every Wednesday, exclusively here on Divine Mercy Plus and on the DM+ app.

Like Moses, Jesus ascended on a mountain to bring a rule for living to the people. He showed them how to find permanent bliss that nothing can take away: not sickness, not poverty, nor persecution. These are the Beatitudes, and Fr. Chris Alar, MIC, explains their meaning and application in our daily lives. Then pay a visit to the National Shrine of Our Lady of Champion in Wisconsin, a special place where Mary appeared and the Beatitudes came alive. 

Fr. Andy reads from Luke 13:22-30, the Gospel reading for Sunday, August 24, 2025.
