Divine Mercy Sunday is almost upon us. It's a magnificent feast day and, like the rest of our liturgical calendar, can serve to inspire Gospel Magicians.
Consider the meaning of the holiday for the Church and for your own life. Think about its themes which include God's mercy (obviously), sacrifice, joy and prayer. Next, think about how you would want to use sleight-of-hand and stage effects to get across these points to your audience. This is basically how any magician works but, more specifically, how a Gospel Magician works. Ours is a sacred duty because we are cathechists and mystagogues charged with the task of passing on the knowledge of the Faith to children, catechumens and even those who are questioning their faith and possibly those curious about the Faith. Let the Spirit guide you. He will always offer inspiration when it comes to the Faith.
