The Divine Mercy Eucharistic Society will be holding its annual Regional American Congress On Mercy (RACOM) at the Hotel Marriot in San Ramon, CA, the weekend of February 10-12, 2012.

The following statements testify that Mercy is today more than ever, the “unique hope” for the world. “The truth, revealed in Christ, about God the "Father of mercies," (2 Cor 1,13) enables us to "see" Him as particularly close to man especially when man is suffering, when he is under threat at the very heart of his existence and dignity. And this is why, in the situation of the Church and the world today, many individuals and groups guided by a lively sense of faith are turning, I would say almost spontaneously, to the mercy of God. They are certainly being moved to do this by Christ Himself, who through His Spirit works within human hearts. For the mystery of God the "Father of mercies" revealed by Christ becomes, in the context of today’s threats to man, as it were a unique appeal addressed to the Church.” (Dives in misericordia)

A National Congress on Divine Mercy-(NZACOM) will be held in Christchurch over the weekend of August 26-28 this year. (See leaflet for details and registrations)
