In a joint message for Holy Week and Easter, the two archbishops of Armagh have asked that all Christian will “show something of the immeasurable mercy of God” in their daily lives.
In the message, Archbishop Eamon Martin and Archbishop Richard Clarke point out that while this is a particular Year of Mercy in the Catholic tradition, that mercy is a central message for all Christian disciples, of whatever tradition.
“As disciples of Jesus Christ, we are called to respond to the mercy of God, shown to us most vividly in the happenings of Holy Week and Easter,” the message states.
“There are those further afield who are have lost everything in this world and who are the recipients only of suspicion and even hatred. We cannot simply stand aloof, if we claim the name of Christ.”
