The Divine Mercy

Divine Mercy Sunday

Divine Mercy Sunday is always the first Sunday after Easter, and on this day if we go to communion and confession we shall obtain complete forgiveness of all our sins and more importantly any punishment those sins may have incurred. This great indulgence given to us by the Church is only available one day a year on this great feast day.

On Divine Mercy Sunday April 30th 2000 Pope John Paul II. Canonised St Maria Faustina, and at the same time He decreed That the Second Sunday of Easter be henceforth known as "Divine Mercy Sunday". Five days later on May 5th 2000 by Virtue of a decree issued by the Sacred Congregation for the Divine Mercy and the Discipline of the Sacraments, The Holy See Proclaimed the Second Sunday of Easter as Divine Mercy Sunday. The Congregation for the Divine Worship and the Discipline of the Sacraments now publishes these decisions of the Supreme Pontiff so that they may take immediate effect.
"I promise that the soul that will venerate this image will not perish, I also promise victory over its enemies already here on earth, especially at the hour of death. I myself will defend it as MY own glory."
  • Three O'clock Prayer

     I desire He said: That every family prominently display this image in their homes. I wish every family to place itself under My special protection. There every day the family will share with me its needs, its works, its sorrows, its sufferings, its desires, its joys. I will let a ray of peace fall upon all families that honour me and trust me. This family will be relieved in all its troubles, all its worries, all its sufferings. If families love and honour me I will give them my peace together with my providence. What a wonderful promise from God our loving Father. I cannot begin to tell you all the light, peace and understanding I have received from praying before this icon. This icon makes our Father alive and present with us. I am sure that this icon is a window of the Divine. This icon helps us all to meet Almighty God, Abba our Father. This icon must be contemplated in silent prayer, God is a friend of silence, He is waiting for us all, to speak to us, and to listen to us in the silence of our hearts. Place before our loving Father all your desires and all your needs.

  • Three Requests From Jesus

    It is the desire of our Lord Jesus that we contemplate his passion at this hour, especially his abandonment during His agony. Then as he told Sr.Faustina: “ At three o’clock implore my mercy, especially for poor sinners; and if only for a brief moment, immerse yourself in My Passion, particularly in my abandonment at the moment of agony. This is the HOUR OF GREAT MERCY for the whole world. In this hour I will refuse nothing to the soul that makes a request of me in virtue of My Passion.”(ref1320) Jesus imposed 3 conditions that were necessary for the prayers addressed to him during the hour of hercy to be heard:'


    1) The prayer has to be directed to Jesus. 

    2) It must be said at 3 o’clock in the afternoon 

    3) It has to call on the merits and value of the Lord’s Passion
