EWTN Divine Mercy Programming Press Release

EWTN’s Divine Mercy Programming Includes
Live Novena to the Divine Mercy in Time of Pandemic


Irondale, AL (EWTN) – Beginning Easter Sunday, EWTN Global Catholic Network will broadcast a live “Novena to the Divine Mercy in Time of Pandemic.” The novena will air shortly after the conclusion of the live Daily Mass, which airs at 8 a.m. ET. (The text to the novena can be found at www.ewtn.com/mercy.)

“The graces of Divine Mercy Sunday are so extraordinary that every Catholic should take full advantage of them, especially since Our Lord made them so easy to obtain,” said EWTN Chairman and Chief Executive Officer Michael P. Warsaw. “Although EWTN viewers can recite the Chaplet of Divine Mercy every weekday at 3 p.m. ET along with EWTN’s friars, the Network makes even more programs available on Divine Mercy Sunday itself, and during the week leading up to it.”
