HYMN Surely It Is God Who Saves Me OPENING PRAYER You expired, Jesus, but the source of life gushed forth for souls, and the ocean of mercy opened up for the whole world. O Fount of Life, unfathomable Divine Mercy, envelop the whole world and empty Yourself out upon us. Amen. ACT OF SPIRITUAL COMMUNION My Jesus, I believe that you are present in the Blessed Sacrament. I love you above all things and I desire you in my soul. Since I cannot now receive you sacramentally, come at least spiritually into my heart. As though you were already there, I embrace you and unite myself wholly to you; permit not that I should ever be separated from you. Amen. THE LORD’S PRAYER Our Father, Who art in heaven, hallowed be Thy Name; Thy kingdom come; Thy will be done on earth as it is in heaven. Give us this day our daily bread; and forgive us our trespasses as we forgive those who trespass against us; and lead us not into temptation, but deliver us from evil. Amen. HAIL MARY Hail Mary, full of grace. The Lord is with thee. Blessed art thou among women, and blessed is the fruit of thy womb, Jesus. Holy Mary, Mother of God, pray for us sinners, now and at the hour of our death. Amen. APOSTLES’ CREED I believe in God, the Father Almighty, Creator of heaven and earth; and in Jesus Christ, His only Son, Our Lord, (All bow) Who was conceived by the Holy Spirit, born of the Virgin Mary, suffered under Pontius Pilate, was crucified; died, and was buried. He descended into Hell; the third day He arose again from the dead; He ascended into Heaven, and is seated at the right hand of God, the Father Almighty; from there He shall come to judge the living and the dead. I believe in the Holy Spirit, the holy Catholic Church, the communion of saints, the forgiveness of sins, the resurrection of the body, and the life everlasting. Amen. (For the following, see music on the next page.) On the large bead before each decade: Eternal Father, I offer You the Body and Blood, Soul and Divinity of Your dearly beloved Son, Our Lord Jesus Christ, in atonement for our sins and those of the whole world. On the 10 small beads of each decade: For the sake of His sorrowful Passion, have mercy on us and on the whole world. Concluding Doxology after five decades (said 3 times): Holy God, Holy Mighty One, Holy Immortal One, have mercy on us and on the whole world. CLOSING PRAYER Eternal God, in whom mercy is endless and the treasury of compassion inexhaustible, look kindly upon us and increase Your mercy in us, that in difficult moments we might not despair nor become despondent, but with great confidence submit ourselves to Your holy will, which is Love and Mercy itself. Amen. HYMN Jesus Christ Is Ris’n Today ORGAN VOLUNTARY Improvisation on O Sons and Daughters Please join us via Internet live-stream from the Cathedral of St. Mary of the Immaculate Conception.

  • Divine Mercy Sunday
    Divine Mercy Sunday SAINT OF THE DAY 19-04-2020 On 22 February 1931 Jesus first communicated to St. Faustina Kowalska His desire for a Feast of Divine Mercy to be celebrated on the first Sunday after Easter, asking her to announce the extraordinary graces He would bestow. He appeared to her in a white robe with his right hand blessing and his left hand resting on his chest, from which two large rays poured out, one red and the other pale. He ordered her to paint an image depicting what she saw and bearing the inscription: “Jesus I trust in You”. On that same occasion Our Lord made her a solemn promise, valid for every pilgrim soul on earth: “I promise that the soul that will venerate this image will not perish. I also promise already on this earth, but especially at the hour of death, victory over enemies. I myself will defend it as My own glory”. Through the revelations to Sister Faustina, Jesus asked priests to announce “My great Mercy for the souls of sinners,” asking every person to invoke His forgiveness with confidence. After 22 February 1931, as proof of how important the Feast of Divine Mercy is in His plan for salvation, he reminded the saint of His request in 14 other apparitions, each time giving new elements on how to celebrate it and why. The choice of the first Sunday after Easter indicates precisely the intimate link between the mystery of the Redemption and this feast, a link that is made even more evident by its novena (“during this novena I will bestow all kinds of graces”, said the Lord), which begins on Good Friday.

  • Divine Mercy Sunday
    AMDG Second Sunday of Easter Year B 8th April 2018 Divine Mercy Sunday Opening Prayer God of everlasting mercy, who, in the very recurrence of the paschal feast kindle the faith of the people you have made your own, increase, we pray, the grace you have bestowed, that all may grasp and rightly understand in what font they have been washed, by whose Spirit they have been reborn, by whose blood they have been redeemed. Since 2000, at the instigation of Pope John Paul II, the Roman Catholic church has kept the Feast of Divine Mercy on the Sunday after Easter. The readings, however, are still bathed in the joy of the Resurrection. In the First Reading we see the effect the Risen Lord has on the life of the young Christian communities, led and guided by the Apostles. The Psalm joyfully shows that Jesus, through his Resurrection, is the rejected cornerstone first mentioned by Isaiah (Isaiah 28: 16). St John is his letter (Second Reading) reminds his readers that the true believer is the one who loves God by keeping his commandments – that is, by loving one another as he loved us. Jesus, fully man and fully God, was baptised by water but shed his blood for us. In the multi-faceted Gospel text, we encounter the Risen Lord twice, as well as the Holy Spirit and the disbelieving Thomas. We are reminded of Jesus’s patience and infinite mercy; we are also able to witness at first- hand the transformation of Thomas and his deep act of faith as he comes to believe that the Lord is truly risen.

  • St. Faustina, Apostle of Divine Mercy 3
    CHAPTER 1 St. Faustina, Apostle of Divine Mercy How long shall I put up with you and how long will you keep putting Me off? (9) “Faustina, please,” I (Michele) told the cab driver, pointing to a small picture of Jesus hanging from his rearview mirror as my friends and I clambered into the back seat. He nodded. I had traveled to Kraków, Poland, for a weekend trip during my college semester abroad at the Francis- can University of Gaming, Austria. Although I spoke no Polish, the cab driver knew from my request exactly where to take us. He knew I had come to visit the shrine of the great saint Sr. Maria Faustina Kowalska. She was 1 2 D IVINE M ERCY FOR M O M S a young Polish religious sister who in the 1930s expe- rienced extraordinary visions of Jesus and his mother. Although Faustina was not very well known in the United States at the time of my visit to Kraków, she was widely celebrated in Poland. Hanging from the cab’s mirror was a distinctive picture known as the Image of Divine Mercy; it was painted at the direction of St. Faustina to portray Jesus as she had seen him in her visions. Devotion to the Image was already very popular among the Polish people and in recent times has surged in popularity in the United States, where the Image hangs in many Catholic homes and parishes, especially on the Sunday after Easter (Divine Mercy Sunday). As the cab driver headed for the Shrine of The Divine Mercy in Kraków-Łagiewniki, the monastery of the Sisters of Our Lady of Mercy where Faustina had once lived, I tried to soak in as much as I could through the windows.

    THE ORIGINAL IMAGE OF DIVINE MERCY An Extraordinary Film for an Extraordinary Year The Director’s Cut Film Presentation If you are considering bringing The Director’s Cut Film Presentation to your parish, event or diocese, you are in for a very special and meaningful event. Daniel diSilva, director of the new documentary The Original Image of Divine Mercy, brings to life a whole new perspective on, not only the film, but on the masterpiece at hand. Having shot the film across six countries, diSilva has accumulated more information about St. Faustina’s work of art than any film could hold. After speaking with some of the most knowledgeable and “connected” people surrounding the painting, diSilva has collected the most fascinating details about why the Original Image of Divine Mercy took the arduous journey that it did, some of which have been “top secret” until now! Even after the making of this beautiful film, there is still so much to tell about the painting that has captivated the world and why the real story behind the Original Image has remained relatively unknown until the making of this film. Be part of the discussion concerning the implications of the “Vilnius Image” in Theology and in the Art World – a conversation which has only just begun.

  • Mensaje De Pascua 2020
    aster E April 10, 2020 Message Vol. LX, No. 26 2020 Dear Sisters and Brothers in Christ, Alleluia! Let us rejoice in the Risen Lord Jesus Christ! After a Lenten Season and Holy Week like none other in our lifetimes, and though it may not “feel” like it to many, this year’s celebration of Easter should hold even more profound meaning for us. It is with firm conviction of faith and hope, not mere “feeling,” that prompts us to rejoice in the Resurrection of the Lord and look forward to Archbishop Charles our own resurrection. C. Thompson Given the suspension of public Mass and other liturgical celebrations these last several weeks, as well as various parish gatherings and activities, our desire to encounter the empty tomb of our Savior is greatly heightened beyond anything the world can match or satisfy. Hopefully, the measures taken to combat the spread of the coronavirus have intensified our Lenten prayer, fasting and almsgiving to further enrich our appreciation for all that Jesus endured in his passion and death for our salvation. Taking up our cross has perhaps taken on new meaning for many of us, for it is in times of crisis and challenge that we discover whether we are truly Christ-centered or self-centered. It is in Him, not ourselves, that we are saved. Like those first Apostles to the empty tomb, we may be wondering what this particular Easter experience might mean for us. Unlike those first Apostles, we know the rest of the story. Jesus Christ is alive! Having conquered sin and death, He is Risen! He has won victory for us over all things of this world.

Ivan Gaskell Modern and contemporary Western art has little place for organized religion. In the accepted scheme, serious artistic endeavor, rattling unconstrained and at full tilt to impressionism, through cubism, and on to abstraction, has no time for the stifling institutional demands of churches. Art, as understood within Western institutions principally concerned with art as such, no longer serves Christian cult practices. Those who meet such needs have equivocal roles at best within the artworld of artists, critics, gallerists, curators, collectors, and art historians.1 Perhaps the last prominent canonical Western artists to produce devotional works for ecclesiastical use in the normal course of their careers were J.-A.-D.

  • The Divine Mercy Novena
    The Divine Mercy Novena Divine Mercy, Eugeniusz Kazimirowski, 1934 Painting in Divine Mercy Sanctuary in Vilnius Jesus asked that the Feast of the Divine Mercy be preceded by a Novena to the Divine Mercy which would begin on Good Friday. He gave St. Faustina an intention to pray for on each day of the Novena, saving for the last day the most difficult intention of all, the lukewarm and indifferent of whom He said: "These souls cause Me more suffering than any others; it was from such souls that My soul felt the most revulsion in the Garden of Olives. It was on their account that I said: 'My Father, if it is possible, let this cup pass Me by.' The last hope of salvation for them is to flee to My Mercy." Document created by Jean-Marie Lee, 2019 In His revelations to St. Faustina, Our Lord asked for a special prayer and meditation on His Passion each afternoon at the three o’clock hour, the hour that recalls His death on the cross. “At three o’clock, implore My mercy, especially for 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. In this hour, I will refuse nothing to the soul that makes a request of Me in virtue of My Passion (Diary, 1320).” “As often as you hear the clock strike the third hour, immerse yourself completely in My mercy, adoring and glorifying it; invoke its omnipotence for the whole world, and particularly for poor sinners; for at that moment mercy was opened wide for every soul.

  • The Image of the Divine Mercy “By Means of This Image I Shall Be Granting Many Graces to Souls; So, Let Every Soul Have Access to It
    The Image of the Divine Mercy “By means of this image I shall be granting many graces to souls; so, let every soul have access to it. “ (Diary, 570) WEEK THREE We all have an image of the merciful Jesus. Once we have seen it, we fall in love with it, and take it home, right? But have we asked ourselves where it comes from, its meaning and its importance for our salvation? Today, I will speak to you about this image, even if I am not worthy to touch so much sublimity, fine thoughst and fruit of the infinite love that God has for you, for me, for us, for humanity. The image of Merciful Jesus is one of the best known images of Christ cru- cified and risen in the history of the Church, and in the contemporary world. It is an extraordinary painting, not only because it is the most wide- spread, but above all because the model, posing for this painting, is the same Lord Jesus who showed himself in these forms to Sister Faustina in the cell of the convent of the Congregation of the Sisters of the Blessed Virgin Mary of Mercy in Płock on the 22nd February of the year 1931, and he ordered to paint his image, according to that vision. In the evening, standing in the cell – Sister Faustina related this event in her "Diary" - I saw the Lord Jesus dressed in a white robe: one hand raised to bless, while the other touched the robe on the chest, which slightly moved away and let out two large rays , both red and pale.

  • The Tenacity of Popular Devotions in the Age of Vatican II: Learning from the Divine Mercy
    religions Article The Tenacity of Popular Devotions in the Age of Vatican II: Learning from the Divine Mercy Robert E. Alvis Saint Meinrad Seminary and School of Theology, St Meinrad, IN 47577, USA; [email protected] Abstract: Despite is global popularity in recent decades, the Divine Mercy devotion has received scant scrutiny from scholars. This article examines its historical development and evolving appeal, with an eye toward how this nuances our understanding of Catholic devotions in the “age of Vatican II.” The Divine Mercy first gained popularity during World War II and the early Cold War, an anxious era in which many Catholic devotions flourished. The Holy Office prohibited the active promotion of the Divine Mercy devotion in 1958, owing to a number of theological concerns. While often linked with the decline of Catholic devotional life generally, the Second Vatican Council helped set the stage for the eventual rehabilitation of the Divine Mercy devotion. The 1958 prohibition was finally lifted in 1978, and the Divine Mercy devotion has since gained a massive following around the world, benefiting in particular from the enthusiastic endorsement of Pope John Paul II. The testimonies of devotees reveal how the devotion’s appeal has changed over time. Originally understood as a method for escaping the torments of hell or purgatory, the devotion developed into a miraculous means to preserve life and, more recently, a therapeutic tool for various forms of malaise.
