“As far as possible citizens should take an active part in public life…Catholics have a moral obligation to promote the common good through the exercise of their voting privileges” (Catechism 1915, 2240).
Gospel
Jn 20:19-31
On the evening of that first day of the week, when the doors were locked, where the disciples were, for fear of the Jews, Jesus came and stood in their midst and said to them, “Peace be with you.”

“Give thanks to the Lord, for He is good; for His mercy endures forever.” (Ps 117:1).
Today the Church celebrates the Feast of Divine Mercy. Have you read: Divine Mercy In My Soul – a compilation of Sister Faustina Kowalska’s diaries in which she recorded revelations she received about God’s mercy? Pope John Paul II canonised her on April 30, 2000.
