Mercy In Teachings of Popes

"Thus the Jubilee will be celebrated both in Rome and in the Particular Churches as a visible sign of the Church's universal communion."
Pope Francis

For over a hundred years, the Church has been guided by popes who encouraged us to meditate on Christ, the center of mercy. Now in Mercy in the Teaching of the Popes we can treasure a collection of teachings of popes Pius XI, Pius XII, John XXIII, Paul VI, Benedict XVI, John Paul II, and Francis on subjects like: the source of divine mercy; Mary, mother of mercy; mercy, the life of the Church; and much more.

This book is one in a series of eight, promulgated by the Pontifical Council for the Promotion of the New Evangelization, which are the official catechetical resources for the Jubilee Year of Mercy (December 8, 2015 - November 20, 2016). Pope Francis will be speaking on these themes in his weekly catechesis throughout the year.

"At time we are called to gaze even more attentively on mercy so that we may become a more effective sign of the Father's action in our lives."
Pope Francis
