Please join us for the Divine Mercy Chaplet Monday through Thursday of Holy Week at 3pm in Church.

  • The message of the Divine Mercy is simple: God loves all of us. He wants us to remember that His mercy is greater than our sins. God wants us to ask for his mercy and take this mercy and let it flow through to others. In order to receive all of God’s mercy, we need to completely trust in Jesus. Let’s be sure we do this every day of our lives.
