The Prayer: Lord Jesus Christ, Son of the living God, have Mercy on me, a poor sinner. Jesus you promised St. Faustina that the soul who has been to confession ( I have) and the soul that receives Holy Communion (I just did) will receive the complete forgiveness of all sin and punishment. Please give me this grace.

[@evapinto2883]

Fear Fathers, Please pray for my daughter, Kristel, 50 years old, married having 2 sons going through very bad depression since sometime! Please pray for my daughter, so that she becomes alright soon from all her sickness. For her speedy recovery, good health, happiness, peace & well being of her whole family. I will be very much grateful to you all. Thank you Jesus . Praise you Jesus.

Wow yesterday was the first time I experienced Divine Mercy Sunday in my entire life. Of course I didn't know if anything changed afterwards but it made me feel better, my soul felt happier. Here's the kicker, I had an unexpected proof that God indeed poured out a lot of graces on us that day. I wouldn't have known something changed in me if I hadn't watched a movie hours after going to the 3 pm fiesta high mass. While I was in line to buy a ticket a woman suddenly cut in front of me like I didn't exist at all! Well I was the only other person in line aside from the couple at the counter and her who suddenly strolled up just looking at the movie schedule above the counter. Usually I would have gotten angry and demand that she wait her turn, bla bla bla but there I was looking at her strolling along towards the teller after the couple left. She did it without a care in the world. Whoa. Surprisingly, no intense anger built up nor bubbled up inside of me. Usually I would have immediately demanded she wait her turn and that she's rude but I was like... nothing. I just looked at her and watched while it happened. My mind eventually made me come up beside her and act upset then say I was in line before her. Boy oh boy I must have said it too nicely that the teller and the woman didn't even bother with what I said at all. Goodness gracious! 😂 Once the woman left, I repeated what I said to the teller. The lady apologized and said she thought I was the buyer's friend or companion! Still I didn't get angry or anything. 😆 If that ain't a miracle I don't know what else to call it. Weird but this is the proof that Jesus fulfills His promises! At that moment it was like I was a totally different person! Glory to God in the highest! Anyway I just prayed for that woman to somehow be changed by God too. 😁🙏 May more people come back and become closer to God to finally be changed by Him. ✝💗

[@Michelle-zk3po]

In penitentiary spirit, I was praying a chaplet for each person I had hurt. When the prayers were completed,, and I could recall no other name, The Lord brought to my mind a person I had completely forgotten. I would never have recalled that person, had God not given me the last person to pray for. I am a FIRM believer in the chaplet...please pray for reparation, God will help you!!!!

[@johns1834]

Only saw this on Friday and we immediately went to confession and will attend Mass on Sunday. Admit to having some doubt since this is NOT heavily advertised by the Church, but our own Fr. Perez said; “Yes, it is true’. I for one do not deserve such mercy, but Thanks Be to God and our Lord Jesus Christ. Incredible. How could anyone in their right mind not want to do this?

You can begin by praying the Chaplet each day to get you gear up for next year, that is what I did! You can pray the "optional" opening and closing prayers of the Chaplet. They are awesome!

Father Chris, Thank you for this Beautiful information you give us every year ❤ I've heard you say this for many years now. I have to tell you that I went to our church to celebrate the Divine Mercy Chaplet, 1st time our church has done this, and it was My Blessing to attend today. While I was there I went to confession, and I was the last one in a very long line! To my surprise, I found out I could now receive Holy Communion, which I haven't been able to receive in many, many years. But in my excitement, I didn't think to stay for 5:00 Mass to receive the Holy Sacrament.. I just finished watching your video and realized I could do a Spiritual Communion, so that's what I did! I feel so Blessed and so Happy on this Divine Mercy Sunday 🙏❤️ GOD BLESS YOU FATHER CHRIS ❤️🙏

Thank you, Father Chris. I never knew about First Saturdays and Divine Mercy Sunday until recently. I now also know about the Divine Mercy Chaplet. Another first. As a child, I went to my weekly CCD classes and was never taught about any of this or of St. Faustina. Sadly, my church doesn't touch upon it now, either. Within the last year, a co-worker introduced me to all of this, and I am truly feeling blessed about it all and for God putting my co-worker in my path. Amen!

Thank you Fr. Alar for doing so much to promote the DM devotion. I'm a revert to the faith, celebrating my first DM Sunday tomorrow (well actually at Vigil mass today) and I find it almost impossible to express fully the AVALANCHE OF GRACES that has been showered upon me as a result of practising daily the devotion (3 PM meditation, chaplet, DM litanies)! It's simply amazing! I had a very sinful lifestyle before my reversion. Jesus somewhere told sister Faustina that the greater the sinner the more generous He is in imparting His Mercy. Well, he wasn't just being nice...He was telling her the literal truth : )

[@saoirsehaslonglegs2313]

My dear Father Chris!, maraming salamat po. I have to pause and pause and pause the video again to take down properly on my notes the prayer you recited. So happy! I just had my confession yesterday, Saturday here in the Philippines, and this afternoon will attend the holy sacrifice of the mass and will receive communion. I will certainly pray this prayer you taught us. And for the benefit of those wanting to recite or pray it as it is, here it goes. Sharing it with you guys, that all of us may be forgiven and start all over again. Lord Jesus Christ, son of the living God, have mercy on me, a poor sinner. You promised St. Faustina that the soul that has been to confession ( i have ) and the soul that receives Holy Communion with trust in Divine Mercy ( i just did) will receive the complete forgiveness of all sins and punishment. Lord, please give me this grace. Jesus, i trust in you. I hope and pray that God will grant us all the grace of final perseverance, amen!
