Parables of Mercy

About this Book:

"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

Many of the Parables in this book are familiar to us: the prodigal son, the lost coin, the lost sheep, the rich man and Lazarus. The Parables of Mercy provides us with an invitation to see them in a new way, recognizing ourselves in the stories.

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
