Hoess was shown such human kindness by his guards that he asked for an Auschwitz surviving Polish Jesuit priest, Fr Lohn, to enable him to be sacramentally reconciled. On Divine Mercy Sunday, this is an example of recognizing God’s boundless limits of mercy as well as a demonstration of the transformative power of mercy when we show it to others

Company Mother Hilda says true transformation, or metanoia, doesn't eliminate suffering but brings a deeper peace by aligning us with God's will rather than our expectations.

Fr Tony Percy says there is no possible way of living like Jesus Christ unless the power of his resurrection resides within us.
