It is the solemn feast of Divine Mercy. It is the day when God's unfathomable Mercy and Goodness penetrate our hearts if we Trust in Him.
Celebrate the Feast of the Divine Mercy in three steps:
- Sacrament of Reconciliation.
Make a good confession seven days before or after the feast. If the sacrament with a priest is unavailable, say an Act of Contrition, with the desire never to sin again. Be contrite and humble as you pray with the goal of detaching from the affection for a sin, even a venial sin. - Go to Mass and receive Holy Communion.
If you are unable to attend Mass in person, watch the Vatican's video stream of the Mass or via EWTN and make a Spiritual Communion with this prayer. - Venerate the image of Divine Mercy.
Pray an Our Father and the Creed in the presence of the Blessed Sacrament exposed or reserved in the tabernacle, adding the prayer "Merciful Jesus, I trust in you." Pray for the Holy Father's intentions. Pray the Chaplet of The Divine Mercy at 3 p.m., in the Hour of Mercy.
Then:
- Place your complete trust in Jesus.
- Practice good works of love and mercy by helping others in trouble and offering prayers to save souls and help the souls in Purgatory.
- Watch live the events at the Shrine of Divine Mercy in Cracow-Lagiewniki, where the image of The Divine Mercy and Saint Faustina's tomb reside.
