Divine Mercy

When a soul approaches Me with trust, Jesus explains, I fill it with such an abundance of graces that it cannot contain them within itself, but radiates them to other souls.

The Message of Divine Mercy

The Divine Mercy prayer comes directly from Jesus from the visions and messages He gave to St.Faustina from 1931 to 1938 as He revealed the plan of God’s mercy. Jesus also gave many promises for those who faithfully recite the Divine Mercy chaplet which was written by St.Faustina in her diary. 

“I promise that the soul that will venerate this image (of Divine Mercy) 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.”

(Diary, 48)
“Whoever will recite it will receive great mercy at the hour of death.”

(Diary, 687)
“The souls that say this chaplet will be embraced by My mercy during their lifetime and especially at the hour of their death.”

(Diary, 754)
“Souls who spread the honor of My mercy…at the hour of death I will not be a Judge for them, but the Merciful Savior.”

(Diary, 1075)
“When they say this chaplet in the presence of the dying, I will stand between My Father and the dying person, not as a just Judge but as a merciful Savior.”

(Diary, 1541)
“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…I will refuse nothing to the soul that makes a request of Me in virtue of My Passion.”

(Diary, 1320; also, cf. Diary, 1572)

Let's Pray the Divine Mercy Chaplet

Sign of the Cross

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

Amen

Opening Prayer (Optional)

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.

(3x) O Blood and Water,
which gushed forth from the Heart of Jesus
as a fountain of Mercy for us, I trust in You!

Our Father

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 amongst 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.

The Apostles’ Creed

I believe in God,
the Father almighty,
Creator of heaven and earth,
and in Jesus Christ, his only Son, our Lord,
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;
on the third day he rose again from the dead;
he ascended into heaven,
and is seated at the right hand of God the Father almighty;
from there he will 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 life everlasting. Amen.
