In your compassion, please join me in praying a 54 day rosary novena, starting today (December 6th, 2023), for my health and for my husband and I to be able to conceive. If you cannot commit to that, please keep us in your prayers, and I will also be doing a Divine Mercy Chaplet for the same intentions for the duration.

This is not something I thought I would have to deal with, but it's been really weighing heavily on me the past month and a half, so I will be laying my grief at Our Lady's feet.

Thank you so much, and God bless you all 🩷🌹

the other day while praying the chaplet of divine mercy, day 2 of the novena, I had a vision... I was at the foot of the cross looking up at Jesus crucified, and was overcome with immense sorrow.

[perpetual-help]

Can I ask you what are your daily prayers? Apart from the rosary, what would you suggest me pray every day and at what times? I need a prayer routine as a new born christian

In the morning (as soon as I wake up - usually 5:30 AM - 6:00 AM), I pray my daily devotionals. This includes the prayers of St. Bridget of Sweden and any novenas that I am saying. Afterwards, I read and reflect on the daily readings and pray the rosary. Around 3 PM, I pray the Divine Mercy Chaplet. At night (around 8 PM) I do an examination of conscience, I thank God for the day / blessings, I pray novenas for friends and family, I ask the intercession of Mary, angels, and saints, and give my daily intentions. I like to end with a prayer for humility, St. Michael prayer, and I read the gospel reading once more for further reflection.

If you are just beginning, I recommend checking out the liturgy of hours. I used to say the morning and evening prayers because I wasn’t sure what else I should pray.

In addition to the rosary, I think the Divine Mercy Chaplet would be a great thing for you to pray daily. It only takes about 6 minutes. God bless you, Anon! I’ll be praying for you. ❤️ Feel free to message me if you have any further questions.

Peace be with you!

Today is the day of Victory! Victory over sin and death!   

Pray with us and the whole Church today in thanksgiving for our Lord's saving Passion, Death and Resurrection!

Let's pray today with exaltation and gratitude for the great gift of Mercy poured out through the resurrection of Christ our Savior! 

Here are the prayers for today:

Day 3 - Divine Mercy Novena

(Audio/Video Version)

In the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Spirit. Amen.

"Today bring to Me ALL DEVOUT AND FAITHFUL SOULS, and immerse them in the ocean of My mercy. The souls brought Me consolation on the Way of the Cross. They were that drop of consolation in the midst of an ocean of bitterness." 

Most Merciful Jesus, from the treasury of Your mercy, You impart Your graces in great abundance to each and all. Receive us into the abode of Your Most Compassionate Heart and never let us escape from It. We beg this grace of You by that most wondrous love for the heavenly Father with which Your Heart burns so fiercely. 

Eternal Father, turn Your merciful gaze upon faithful souls, as upon the inheritance of Your Son. For the sake of His sorrowful Passion, grant them Your blessing and surround them with Your constant protection. Thus may they never fail in love or lose the treasure of the holy faith, but rather, with all the hosts of Angels and Saints, may they glorify Your boundless mercy for endless ages. 

Amen.

In the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Spirit. Amen.

Pray the Divine Mercy Chaplet. 

Share the Divine Mercy Novena!

SAINT OF THE DAY (October 5)

On October 5, the church celebrates the Memorial of St. Mary Faustina Kowalska, virgin.

St. Faustina was born Helena Kowalska on 25 August 1905 to a poor but devout Polish family in 1905.

At the age of 20, with very little education, and having been rejected from several other convents because of her poverty and lack of education, Helen entered the Congregation of the Sisters of Our Lady of Mercy.

There, she took the name Sr. Faustina and spent time in convents in both Poland and Lithuania.

Throughout her life, Jesus appeared to Sr. Faustina.

He asked her to become an apostle and secretary of his mercy by writing down his messages of Divine Mercy for the world in her diary.

Jesus also asked Sr. Faustina to have an image painted of his Divine Mercy, with red and white rays issuing from his heart, and to spread devotion to the Divine Mercy novena.

Even before her death on 5 October 1938, devotion to Divine Mercy began to spread throughout Poland.

This little nun and Jesus’ message of Divine Mercy impacted Karol Wojtyla greatly, which became obvious to the world when he was elected pope.

“It is truly marvelous how her devotion to the merciful Jesus is spreading in our contemporary world and gaining so many human hearts!

This is doubtlessly a sign of the times — a sign of our twentieth century.

The balance of this century, which is now ending, in addition to the advances which have often surpassed those of preceding eras, presents a deep restlessness and fear of the future.

Where, if not in the Divine Mercy, can the world find refuge and the light of hope? Believers understand that perfectly,” Pope St. John Paul II wrote.

On 30 April 2000, Pope John Paul II canonized St. Faustina in what he was widely reported as saying was “the happiest day of my life.”

“Today, my joy is truly great in presenting the life and witness of Sr. Faustina Kowalska to the whole Church as a gift of God for our time.

By divine Providence, the life of this humble daughter of Poland was completely linked with the history of the 20th century, the century we have just left behind.

In fact, it was between the First and Second World Wars that Christ entrusted his message of mercy to her.

Those who remember, who were witnesses and participants in the events of those years and the horrible sufferings they caused for millions of people, know well how necessary was the message of mercy,” the Pope said in his homily that day.

It was also on this day, the Sunday after Easter, that Pope John Paul II instituted the Feast of Divine Mercy, which Jesus had asked for in his messages to Sr. Faustina.

Chaplet of Archangel St. Michael

"The history of this Chaplet goes back to a devout Servant of God, Antonia d'Astonac, who had a vision of St. Michael. He told Antonia to honor him by nine salutations to the nine Choirs of Angels. St. Michael promised that whoever would practice this devotion in his honor would have, when approaching Holy Communion, an escort of nine angels chosen from each of the nine Choirs. In addition, for those who would recite the Chaplet daily, he promised his continual assistance, and the company of all the holy angels during life and after death, and deliverance from purgatory for themselves and their relations."

The St. Michael Chaplet was recommended by St. Padre Pio to all of his spiritual children and to those who were suffering from temptations. It can be prayed daily or at any time and is especially recommended on the following feasts: • Apparition of St. Michael the Archangel (May 8) • Archangels Michael, Gabriel and Raphael (September 29) • Holy Guardian Angels (October 2) • Archangel St. Raphael (October 24) • And on Tuesdays Commence a novena to complete on the feast of Our Lady of the Rosary (October 7)

Act of Contrition

O God, come to my assistance. O Lord, make haste to help me.

Glory be ...

(Say one Our Father and three Hail Mary's after each of the following nine salutations in honor of the nine Choirs of Angels)

By the intercession of St. Michael and the celestial Choir of Seraphim, may the Lord make us worthy to burn with the fire of perfect charity. Amen.

By the intercession of St. Michael and the celestial Choir of Cherubim may the Lord grant us the grace to leave the ways of sin and run in the paths of Christian perfection. Amen.

By the intercession of St. Michael and the celestial Choir of Thrones may the Lord infuse into our hearts a true and sincere spirit of humility. Amen.

By the intercession of St. Michael and the celestial Choir of Dominations may the Lord give us grace to govern our senses and overcome any unruly passions. Amen.

By the intercession of St. Michael and the celestial Choir of Virtues may the Lord preserve us from evil and falling into temptation. Amen.

By the intercession of St. Michael and the celestial Choir of Powers may the Lord vouchsafe to protect our souls against the snares and temptations of the devil. Amen.

By the intercession of St. Michael and the celestial Choir of Principalities may God fill our souls with a true spirit of obedience. Amen.

By the intercession of St. Michael and the celestial Choir of Archangels may the Lord give us perseverance in faith and in all good works in order that we may attain the glory of Heaven. Amen.

By the intercession of St. Michael and the celestial Choir of Angels may the Lord grant us to be protected by them in this mortal life and conducted in the life to come to Heaven. Amen.

In honour of St. Michael: Our Father … In honour of St. Gabriel: Our Father … In honour of St. Raphael: Our Father… In honour of our Guardian Angel: Our Father …

Concluding prayers:

O glorious Prince St. Michael, chief and commander of the heavenly hosts, guardian of souls, vanquisher of rebel spirits, servant in the house of the Divine King and our admirable conductor, thou who dost shine with excellence and superhuman virtue vouchsafe to deliver us from all evil, who turn to thee with confidence and enable us by thy gracious protection to serve God more and more faithfully every day.

Pray for us, O glorious St. Michael, Prince of the Church of Jesus Christ. That we may be made worthy of His promises.

Almighty and Everlasting God, Who by a prodigy of goodness and a merciful desire for the salvation of all men, hast appointed the most glorious Archangel, St. Michael, Prince of Thy Church, make us worthy, we beseech Thee, to be delivered from all our enemies that none of them may harass us at the hour of death, but that we may be conducted by him into the august presence of Thy Divine Majesty. This we beg through the merits of Jesus Christ, our Lord. Amen.

Who is like unto God? Who can withstand the sword of St. Michael?
