About Us
Devotion to the Divine Mercy involves a total commitment to God as Mercy. It is a decision to place complete trust in Him, to accept His mercy with thanksgiving, and to be merciful as He is merciful.
God is Love and His is the Kingdom of Love.
God is merciful to us and forgives us because of His self-emptying Love for us.
Here are some aspects of the Divine Mercy Devotion:–
-
- Veneration of the picture with the signature ‘Jesus, I trust in You’ ;
- The significance of prayer and adoration at the hour of grace (3PM, when Jesus died on the cross for our sins);
- The Divine Mercy Chaplet and the promises Jesus attached to it;
- Works of mercy.
Faith without action is useless. There, we are called to do corporal and spiritual works of mercy along with the Divine Mercy devotion. As they say, ‘a picture is worth a thousand words’ — and the sacred image has many mystical symbolisms, which help us focus on God and His mercy, and to go to Him in trust.
Roles & Responsibilities
Jesus taught that man not only receives and experiences the mercy of God, but that he is also called ‘to practice mercy’ towards others.
As Matthew 5:7 writes, “Blessed are the merciful, for they shall obtain mercy,” — man attains the merciful love of God. His mercy is to the extent that he is interiorly transformed in the Spirit of that Love towards his neighbour.
Tasks & Practices
It helps to remember the ABCs of Mercy:–
-
- Ask for Mercy,
- Be Merciful,
- and have Complete trust in Jesus.
“Be merciful as your Father is merciful,” – Luke 6:36

Our ministry hosts a monthly Divine Mercy devotion on the second Saturday of the month at 3PM in the Main Church, just before the evening 4:30PM Mass.
The special mission of involving the Divine Mercy in atonement for our sins was given to an obscure, uneducated Polish nun — St. Faustina Kowalska.
Pope John Paul II (often referred to as the Mercy Pope) instituted the Feast of the Divine Mercy on the following Sunday after Easter. He greatly encouraged this devotion. The extraordinary and overwhelming response of the people to the Divine Mercy Devotion points out that now is the time for mercy.
By being devoted to the Divine Mercy, we understand the immense forgiving love of God for us and His longing to see us back in His arms. We close our doors to Him and His love, time and again, because of our sins. Jesus paid the highest ransom for us through His blood to set us free — this goes way back to Calvary, when the soldier pierced His side with a lance, causing blood and water to gush out.
He gave us His all, so we remain thankful for His mercy. Jesus has stored great promises in this devotion. We can understand the magnitude when He said to St. Faustina, “Even if a hardened sinner recites the Chaplet with a contrite heart, he will receive the graces of conversion.”
"Be persevering in your prayers and be thankful as you stay awake to pray. Pray for us especially, asking God to show us opportunities for announcing the message and proclaiming the mystery of Christ."
Colossians 4:2-3
