Growing up near the Marian Fathers on Eden Hill, Vinny Flynn was influenced by their proclamation of Divine Mercy from an early age. His later service leading their Editorial Department, helping edit the English-language edition of the Diary of St. Faustina, and helping create some of the best-known Divine Mercy publications (such as the Divine Mercy Message and Devotion booklet) prepared him to craft Mercy’s Gaze, a powerful aid to prayer before Jesus in the Divine Mercy Image and in Eucharistic Adoration.

Many Catholics have heard the term “the Immaculate Conception.” Many also don’t know what it means, or why it matters to them. Father Thaddaeus Lancton, MIC, author of Shining in Spotless Splendor: Consecration to the Immaculate Conception, explains that, and discusses how the heart of the founding charism of the Marian Fathers is God’s work of sanctification, of making Our Lady (and, gradually, all her children) immaculate.
