The Son of God hangs naked on the cross; the soldiers took his tunic and cast lots for it (cf. 1 Cor 13:7). Our life, with its joys and sorrows, is something unique and unrepeatable that takes place under the merciful gaze of God. This Jubilee Year cannot overlook the complexity of the current realities of family life. He returns to the central theme contained in the document Amoris LaetitiaAmoris Laetitia Jesus’ life and preaching decisively marked the history of the Christian community, which has viewed its mission in terms of Christ’s command to be a permanent instrument of his mercy and forgiveness (cf. Mt 13:33), or the mustard seed that grows into a tree (cf. One of the features of the Jubilee was the institution of “missionaries of mercy,” priests, presumably with a special mission to promote mercy in … Continue reading → Now is the time to unleash the creativity of mercy, to bring about new undertakings, the fruit of grace. On Monday 21st November 2016, Pope Francis issued an Apostolic Letter Misericordia et Misera following the closure of the Jubilee Year of Mercy on the Solemnity of Christ the King. We have to remember each of us carries the richness and the burdens of our personal history; this is what makes us different from everyone else. Through Sacred Scripture, kept alive by the faith of the Church, the Lord continues to speak to his Bride, showing her the path she must take to enable the Gospel of salvation to reach everyone. Let us make every effort, then, to devise specific and insightful ways of practising charity and the works of mercy. They are pleading for our help to be set free from the slavery of the contemporary world. It is the road of mercy, on which we meet so many of our brothers and sisters who reach out for someone to take their hand and become a companion on the way. Hence the importance of the homily, in which “truth goes hand in hand with beauty and goodness”[12] so that the hearts of believers may thrill before the grandeur of mercy! With what hope can they face their present or their future? The misery of sin was clothed with the mercy of love. How are we preparing them to live with dignity and responsibility? 3. [17], The title of the document references Saint Augustine's commentary on Jesus and the woman taken in adultery in the Gospel of John. During the “Jubilee for Socially Excluded People”, as the Holy Doors of Mercy were being closed in all the cathedrals and shrines of the world, I had the idea that, as yet another tangible sign of this Extraordinary Holy Year, the entire Church might celebrate, on the Thirty-Third Sunday of Ordinary Time, the World Day of the Poor. After Jesus challenges her accusers and they withdraw, Augustine says that only misera et misericordia (misery and mercy)[a] remain. God has subdued our iniquities and cast all our sins into the depths of the sea (cf. In the face of such attacks, Christian mercy responds above all with vigilance and solidarity. I come to realize that I am truly a “new creation” (Gal 6:15): I am loved, therefore I exist; I am forgiven, therefore I am reborn; I have been shown mercy, therefore I have become a vessel of mercy. After the Our Father, the priest continues the prayer by invoking peace and liberation from sin by the “help of your mercy”. In all religions, the moment of death, like that of birth, is accompanied by a religious presence. Misericordia et misera sono le due parole che sant’Agostino utilizza per raccontare l’incontro tra Gesù e l’adultera (cfr Gv 8,1-11). 17. [10], The official hymn, with most verses derived from the Gospels, First Corinthians and Psalms, was written by Eugenio Costa, S.J., with original music composed by Paul Inwood. I thank all of you from the heart for your ministry, and I ask you to be welcoming to all, witnesses of fatherly tenderness whatever the gravity of the sin involved, attentive in helping penitents to reflect on the wrong they have done, clear in presenting moral principles, willing to walk patiently beside the faithful on their penitential journey, far-sighted in discerning individual cases and generous in dispensing God’s forgiveness. This extraordinary ministry does not end with the closing of the Holy Door. The Holy Mother of God always looks upon us with her eyes of mercy. Nor should we ever forget what the Apostle Paul tells us about his meeting with Peter, James and John after his conversion. [5] The Fourth Eucharistic Prayer is a hymn to God’s mercy: “For you came in mercy to the aid of all, so that those who seek might find you”. The temptation to theorize “about” mercy can be overcome to the extent that our daily life becomes one of participation and sharing. This Gospel account, however, is not an encounter of sin and judgement in the abstract, but of a sinner and her Saviour. We know that God punished them, yet he also “made for Adam and for his wife garments of skins, and clothed them” (Gen 3:21). The works of mercy are “handcrafted”, in the sense that none of them is alike. I greatly desire that God’s word be increasingly celebrated, known and disseminated, so that the mystery of love streaming from this font of mercy may be ever better understood. Jesus’ only judgement is one filled with mercy and compassion for the condition of this sinner. She is an adulteress and, in the eyes of the Law, liable to be stoned. Hence we are called to give new expression to the traditional works of mercy. vv. Another face of mercy is consolation. In this Holy Year, the Church listened attentively and experienced intensely the presence and closeness of the Father, who with the Holy Spirit has enabled her to see with greater clarity the gift and mandate of Jesus Christ regarding forgiveness. Mt 25:31-46). With this confidence, the community gathers in the presence of the Lord, particularly on the holy day of the resurrection. Each Sunday, God’s word is proclaimed in the Christian community so that the Lord’s Day may be illuminated by the paschal mystery. 20. Nothing of what a repentant sinner places before God’s mercy can be excluded from the embrace of his forgiveness. On November 21, 2016, the Holy See published Pope Francis’ Apostolic Letter Misericordia et Misera, dated November 20.In paragraph 12 of the document, the Holy Father extends beyond the Year of Mercy the faculty to hear confessions granted on September 1, … His word gives a voice to our inmost needs and worries, and offers a fruitful response, so that we can concretely experience his closeness to us. In the midst of the Year of Mercy, questions occasionally arose regarding the place of repentance, conversion, and reconciliation in the broader scheme of mercy. From generation to generation, it embraces all those who trust in him and it changes them, by bestowing a share in his very life. And before the sign of peace, exchanged as an expression of fraternity and mutual love in the light of forgiveness received, the priest prays: “Look not on on our sins but on the faith of your Church”. May we never allow this joy to be robbed from us by our troubles and concerns. We cannot forget the poor: this is an injunction as relevant today as ever, and one that compels by its evangelical warrant. This Day will also represent a genuine form of new evangelization (cf. [20] Cf. Our hearts of stone become hearts of flesh (cf. This initiative, already in place in many dioceses, has great pastoral value in encouraging a more fervent experience of the sacrament of Confession. [3] It is the 27th holy year in history, following the ordinary 2000 Jubilee during John Paul II's papacy. Here we feel the embrace of the Father, who comes forth to meet us and grant us the grace of being once more his sons and daughters. How much sorrow in the face of the death of a loved one! [1] [3], Francis wished for the Jubilee to be celebrated not only in Rome but all around the world; for the first time holy doors are open in single dioceses, either in the cathedral or in historical churches. [16] He signed it in a public ceremony on 20 November and presented copies to representatives chosen to represent the universal audience for his message: Philippine cardinal Luis Antonio Tagle of Manila, Scottish archbishop Leo Cushley, two missionary priests from Brazil and the Democratic Republic of the Congo, a Roman deacon and his family, two women religious from South Korea and Mexico, three generations of a U.S. family, an engaged couple, religious instructors, and two people representing the disabled and the sick. The title can be translated as "Mercy and Misery". Jesus looked that woman in the eye and read in her heart a desire to be understood, forgiven and set free. Everything is revealed in mercy; everything is resolved in the merciful love of the Father. 5. Nombreuses ont été les grâces reçues et partagées pendant cette Année Sainte. Non poteva trovare espressione più bella e coerente di questa per far comprendere il mistero dell’amore di Dio quando viene incontro al peccatore: «Rimasero soltanto loro due: la misera e la misericordia». Jesus had taught this clearly on another occasion, when he had been invited to dine at the home of a Pharisee and a woman, known by everyone to be a sinner, approached him (cf. [9] In the Church’s prayer, then, references to mercy, far from being merely exhortative, are highly performative, which is to say that as we invoke mercy with faith, it is granted to us, and as we confess it to be vital and real, it truly transforms us. Filter . Many concrete signs of mercy have been performed during this Holy Year. We were the first to be forgiven in view of this ministry, made witnesses at first hand of the universality of God’s forgiveness. Entitled Misericordia et Misera (Mercy with Misery), this letter highlights the “the mystery of God’s love when it touches the sinner”. 9. Let us keep in mind, then, the words of the Apostle: “Rejoice in the Lord always” (Phil 4:4; cf. Like previous jubilees, it was seen by the Church as a period for remission of sins and universal pardon focusing particularly on God's forgiveness and mercy. It requires us to banish indifference and hypocrisy, lest our plans and projects remain a dead letter. We feel responsible, then, for actions and words that can touch the heart of penitents and enable them to discover the closeness and tenderness of the Father who forgives. In the liturgy, mercy is not only repeatedly evoked, but is truly received and experienced. The Church today needs to tell of those “many other signs” that Jesus worked, which “are not written” (Jn 20:30), so that they too may be an eloquent expression of the fruitfulness of the love of Christ and of the community that draws its life from him. Misericordia et Misera is Pope Francis’ apostolic letter released at the end of the Mercy Jubilee. “I thank him who has given me strength for this, Christ Jesus our Lord, because he judged me faithful by appointing me to his service, though I formerly blasphemed and persecuted and insulted him; but I received mercy” (1 Tim 1:12-13). It would be difficult to imagine a more beautiful or apt way of expressing the mystery of God’s love when it touches the sinner: “the two of them alone remained: mercy with misery ”. Misericordia et misera is a phrase used by Saint Augustine in recounting the story of Jesus’ meeting with the woman taken in adultery (cf. I am convinced that our faith-filled pastoral activity should lead to a direct experience of how the liturgical signs and our prayers are an expression of the Lord’s mercy.

Remaining only at the level of the law is equivalent to thwarting faith and divine mercy. “Comfort, comfort my people” (Is 40:1) is the heartfelt plea that the prophet continues to make today, so that a word of hope may come to all those who experience suffering and pain. 1 Thess 5:16). The Jubilee now ends and the Holy Door is closed. 16. Even in the most complex cases, where there is a temptation to apply a form of justice derived from rules alone, we must believe in the power flowing from divine grace. It is the time of mercy because no sinner can ever tire of asking forgiveness and all can feel the welcoming embrace of the Father. Now, at the conclusion of this Jubilee, it is time to look to the future and to understand how best to continue, with joy, fidelity and enthusiasm, experiencing the richness of divine mercy. A reassuring word, an embrace that makes us feel understood, a caress that makes us experience love, a prayer that makes us stronger… all these things express God’s closeness through the consolation offered by our brothers and sisters. Once clothed in mercy, even if the inclination to sin remains, it is overcome by the love that makes it possible for her to look ahead and to live her life differently. Let us think only about the many children who suffer from forms of violence that rob them of the joy of life. What great suffering is caused by the experience of betrayal, violence and abandonment!

[8] In the second, the formula of anointing reads: “Through this holy anointing, may the Lord in his love and mercy help you with the grace of the Holy Spirit”. [3][8], In the bull, Pope Francis stated about the opening of the holy door, "the Holy Door will become a Door of Mercy through which anyone who enters will experience the love of God who consoles, pardons, and instils hope".[3]. His words highlight an essential aspect of his own mission and of the Christian life as a whole: “Only they would have us remember the poor, which very thing I was eager to do” (Gal 2:10). Henceforth, if she so desires, she can “walk in charity” (Eph 5:2). Yet death must be faced and prepared for as a painful and inescapable passage, yet one charged with immense meaning, for it is the ultimate act of love towards those we leave behind and towards God whom we go forth to meet. Given this need, lest any obstacle arise between the request for reconciliation and God’s forgiveness, I henceforth grant to all priests, in virtue of their ministry, the faculty to absolve those who have committed the sin of procured abortion. APOSTOLIC LETTER OF THE HOLY FATHER FRANCIS AT THE CONCLUSION OF THE EXTRAORDINARY JUBILEE OF MERCY. Creative initiatives can help make this an opportunity for the faithful to become living vessels for the transmission of God’s word.

At a special press conference today, the Vatican released Francis’ latest official document, the “Apostolic Letter” Misericordia et Misera . It would be difficult to imagine a more beautiful or apt way of expressing the mystery of God’s love when it touches the sinner: “the two of them alone remained: mercy with misery”.

For all who are joyful do what is good, think what is good, and despise sadness… All who put aside sadness and put on joy will live in God”.
