Happy and holy Easter to you and your family! In this issue, we’re sharing Knights of Columbus-produced documentaries about two great saints. First is a new documentary highlighting St. Junípero Serra’s heroic missionary activity to Indigenous peoples in 18th-century North America. Second, as we approach Divine Mercy Sunday, April 11, is a 2016 documentary about the message of Divine Mercy received by St. Faustina Kowalska and the dramatic impact of this message on the lives of individuals today.

Junípero Serra: A Man of God, A Mission of Love This film tells the remarkable story of one of the most influential figures in American history. Canonized in 2015 by Pope Francis, St. Junípero Serra was a courageous witness to the Catholic faith and a defender of human dignity. WATCH

The Face of Mercy This documentary examines how St. Faustina’s powerful visions of a merciful God have impacted people around the world, including a woman whose family was wiped out by genocide in Rwanda; a priest with a criminal past; and a young widow who forgave her husband’s killer. WATCH
