"Missionary of Mercy" Fr. Panneer Selvam, part 1
This year’s Ash Wednesday and the Lenten Season have taken on a special connotation and colour, occurring during the Jubilee Year of Mercy. Pope Francis marked the beginning of the church's Lenten journey by sending off several hundred religious and diocesan priests on their own special path as "Missionaries of Mercy" in local dioceses and parishes. At the Feb. 10 Ash Wednesday Mass, the Pope officially commissioned 762 priests from around the world to go out as special Missionaries of Mercy, empowering them to forgive even the sins that are reserved for the Holy See to pardon.
