PARISH DIVINE MERCY APOSTOLATE

 

Listen to the song “Eternal Comfort”  

5 OCT

Feast of St Faustina

St Faustina serves as a constant reminder of the message to trust in Jesus’ endless mercy, and to live life mercifully toward others. We also turn to her in prayer and request her intercession to our merciful Saviour on our behalf. The following prayer may be included along with the devotion to the Divine Mercy:

“St Faustina, You told us that your mission would continue after your death and that you would not forget us. Our Lord also granted you a great privilege, telling you to “distribute graces as you will, to who you will, and when you will.”

Relying on this, we ask your intercession for the graces we need, especially for the intentions just mentioned. Help us, above all, to trust in Jesus as you did and thus to glorify His mercy every moment of our lives. Amen”

“ I have been praying the Chaplet of Divine Mercy daily for 10 years now and it is one of the most comforting experience for me having gone through 2 medical life crises. Through this weekly Healing Chaplet, I have seen how through our prayer intervention for others in need of healing, a former colleague had recovered from gall bladder removal surgery and another friend successfully completed 8 cycles of chemotherapy ”! Jesus – I Trust in You! “

Divine Mercy Apostolate

  1. The mission of the Divine Mercy Apostolate is to spread God’s message of mercy to all parishioners and visitors.
  2. To foster unity among devotees through retreats, feast-day celebrations, Novena, etc.
  3. To provide uniform and authentic version of true devotion to all who are holding divine mercy prayers in their neighbourhood.

Divine Mercy Message

    The message of The Divine Mercy is simple. It is that God loves us – all of us.  And, he wants us to recognize that His mercy is greater than our sins, so that we will call upon Him with trust, receive His mercy, and let it flow through us to others.

    There are three main themes to the Divine Mercy Devotion:

    • to ask for and obtain the mercy of God
    • to trust in Christ’s abundant mercy
    • to show mercy to others.
