About this episode

Sr. Ann reflects on the readings that illustrate God's infinite love and mercy.

Today’s readings show us just how much God loves us and has mercy on us. From the First Reading, in which God promises to “espouse us in Love and Mercy,” to the Gospel, where Jesus raises the daughter of Jairus, we see how God works with infinite love. He loves us beyond all price.
