Pope Francis wrote in his\u00a0Bull of Induction of the Jubilee Year of Mercy entitled\u00a0Misericordiae Vultus,\u00a0\u00a0“The initiative of ’24 Hours for the Lord,’\u00a0to be celebrated on the Friday and Saturday preceding the Fourth Week of Lent, should be implemented in every diocese.\u00a0Let us place the Sacrament of Reconciliation at the center once more in such a way that it will enable people to touch the grandeur of God\u2019s mercy with their own hands. For every penitent, it will be a source of true interior peace.” (no. 17)<\/p>\n

Schedule for \u201824 hours for the Lord\u2019 Saturday, March 5, 2016<\/span><\/span><\/strong> This is a moment of RENEWAL, a moment of REJUVENATION to get back to CHRIST. The Year of Mercy calls us for a renewed fidelity to Christ, to His Calling and to His Mission. Christ, who blessed all with His healing hands, who absolved sins and genuinely loved sinners; Christ, who consoled and comforted the afflicted by offering His love and hope, WELCOMES ALL with a warm heart to feel the soothing presence of His mercy and compassion. Let\u2019s get charged and thrilled to meet Jesus in the Blessed Sacrament and in the Sacrament of Confession. Let\u2019s radiate Christ to others. Let our presence make Christ vibrant. May His mercy transform us.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Friday, March 4 to Saturday, March 5, 2016 Pope Francis wrote in his\u00a0Bull of Induction of the Jubilee Year of Mercy entitled\u00a0Misericordiae Vultus,\u00a0\u00a0“The initiative of ’24 Hours for the Lord,’\u00a0to […]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paid_content":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[6],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-1650","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-parish-news"],"jetpack_featured_media_url":"","jetpack_sharing_enabled":true,"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.catholic.az\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1650","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.catholic.az\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.catholic.az\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.catholic.az\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.catholic.az\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=1650"}],"version-history":[{"count":2,"href":"https:\/\/www.catholic.az\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1650\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":1652,"href":"https:\/\/www.catholic.az\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1650\/revisions\/1652"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.catholic.az\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=1650"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.catholic.az\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=1650"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.catholic.az\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=1650"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
