Divine Mercy

St. Mary's will have a Holy Hour with Eucharistic Adoration on Divine Mercy Sunday, April 7th, from 2:30 to 3:30 PM in the church. The Divine Mercy Chaplet will be prayed at 3 PM, completing the Divine Mercy Novena, and we will pray the Litany to Divine Mercy.

 
Our Lord Jesus said to St. Faustina:
Encourage souls to say the Chaplet which I have given you….Whoever will recite it will receive great mercy at the hour of death….When they say this Chaplet in the presence of the dying, I will stand between My Father and the dying person, not as the Just Judge, but as the Merciful Savior.
I desire to grant you imaginable graces to those souls who trust in my mercy….Through this chaplet, you will obtain everything, if what you ask for is compatible with My will.
 (Diary 687,1541,1731)

The Divine Mercy Novena began on Good Friday. It is prayed nine days prior to Divine Mercy Sunday, April 7th. For each of the nine days, our Lord gave Saint Faustina a different intention.
