Easter A.D. 2011
Dear Faithful and Friends of the Institute of Christ the King,
It is my great joy to wish you all a very blessed and joyful Easter, Feast of the Resurrection of Our
Lord and Savior Jesus Christ.
Every Sunday when we come to church to attend the Holy Sacrifice of the Mass we celebrate in profound
thanksgiving, praise, and adoration the Resurrection of Our Divine Savior. On Holy Thursday Jesus
celebrated for the first time the Sacrifice of the Mass in the presence of His beloved Apostles in the
Cenacle. On Good Friday our High Priest offered Himself up on the Altar of the Cross of Calvary as our
Immaculate Victim to God the Father in order to atone with the price of His Most Precious Blood for the
sins of all men for all time. On Easter Sunday Jesus rose from the dead and gave us the final proof of His
divine mission and His divinity. The bonds of death could not hold Him back Who is the Author of life.
At the celebration of every Mass Jesus is the main priest and celebrant Who acts through His ordained
minister consecrating the bread into His Body and the wine into His Blood, and thus renewing on our altars
in an unbloody manner the Sacrifice of Calvary. Jesus Himself is the principal priest and celebrant at
every Mass that is offered up. Jesus consecrated His Apostles Bishops at the Last Supper and continues
His saving mission through his bishops and priests in the Catholic Church. The sacramentally ordained
Catholic priesthood is an instrument of holiness, truth, and love that Jesus uses to continue His very own
mission on earth to glorify the Father in the Holy Spirit and to save souls until the end of time.
In the name of my Superiors, the Prior General of the Institute of Christ the King, Msgr. Gilles Wach
and his Vicar General Msgr. R. Michael Schmitz, as well as in the name of our priests, seminarians,
oblates, sisters, and candidates in the Institute, I wish you wholeheartedly the rich blessings of the
Risen Christ. Jesus is King forever and leads us in our spiritual battle to give a living testimony of the
truth, love, and beauty of our Holy Catholic Faith against the powers of evil, darkness, and ungodliness in
an ever more secularized world. The world needs Jesus so much. It needs to be sanctified by the Teachings,
Sacraments and the blessings of Holy Mother Church. It needs to be purified from its vices, its religious
indifference and moral relativism. May the light of the Risen Christ shine in you and may you bring to
those around you the true and authentic joy of Easter!
I would like to express my deep gratitude to all our office staff and volunteers, and our many
volunteers at church who have labored hard to prepare for the great celebrations of Holy Week and
the upcoming First Holy Communion of May 1. Holy Family Parish will have First Holy Communion at
the 10:00 a.m. English Mass, and St. Gianna Oratory at the 1:00 p.m. Latin High Mass. Please keep our
children in your prayers who prepare to receive the sacraments of Penance and of the Eucharist for the very
first time in their lives!
It is my joy to announce that Canon Raphael Ueda, priest of the Institute of Christ the King, will visit with
us during Easter Week. Canon Ueda is from Kobe, Japan and spent Holy Week 2009 as a deacon with us in
Tucson. Abbé Edward Ablang, who spent this past year with us as part of his seminary formation, has
been sent to the Institute’s Apostolate in Oakland, California in order to help Canon Jean-Marie Moreau
during the celebration of Holy Week and they both send you their best wishes for a Happy Easter.
Yours sincerely in Christ the Risen King,
Canon Richard von Menshengen,
Parish Administrator and Rector
Pasqua A.D. 2011
Estimados Feligreses y amigos del Instituto de Cristo el Rey,
Me da mucha alegría desearles a todos ustedes una bendita y feliz Pascua, Cena de Resurrección de
Nuestro Señor y salvador Jesucristo.
Cada domingo cuando venimos a la iglesia a participar en el Santísimo Sacrificio, celebramos y damos
gracias y adoración a la Resurrección de Nuestro Divino Jesucristo. El jueves santo Jesús celebró por la
primera vez el Sacrificio de la Misa en la presencia de sus queridos Apóstoles en el Cénacle. El viernes
Santo, nuestro Sumo Sacerdote se ofreció a Dios el Padre en el altar de la cruz de Calvario como nuestra
víctima inmaculada, para expiar con el precio de su sangre preciosa los pecados de todo hombres para todo tiempo. El Domingo de Pascua Jesús resucitó de los muertos y nos dio la prueba final de su misión divina y su divinidad. Los lazos de la muerte no pudo retenerlo, El que es El autor de la vida.
En la celebración de cada misa Jesús es el sacerdote y celebrante principal que actúa a través de su ministro ordenado la consagración del pan en su cuerpo y el vino en su sangre, renovando así en nuestros altares, en una manera incruenta, el sacrificio del Calvario. Jesús mismo es el sacerdote y celebrante principál en cada misa ofrecida. Jesús consagró sus Apóstoles Obispos en la última cena y continúa su misión de salvación a través de sus obispos y sacerdotes en la Iglesia Católica. El sacerdocio ordenado sacramental es un instrumento de santidad, verdad y amor que Jesús usa para continuar su misión propio en la
tierra para glorificar al Padre en el Espíritu Santo y para salvar almas hasta el fin de tiempo.
En el nombre de mis Superiores, el general del Instituto de Cristo Rey, Msgr., Gilles Wach y su Vicar General Msgr. R. Michael Schmitz, y también en el nombre de nuestros sacerdotes, hermanas y
candidatos en el Instituto , les deseo con todo mi corazón, las profundas bendiciones del Cristo resucitado. Jesús es Rey por siempre y nos guía en nuestra lucha espiritual a dar testimonio de la verdad, el
amor y la belleza de nuestra Sagrada fe Católica y está en contra de los poderes de lo maléfico, la oscuridad, y todo lo que va en contra de Dios en un mundo sin fe. El mundo necesita a Jesús mucho. El mundo
necesita ser santificado por sus enseñanzas, sacramentos y las bendiciones de nuestra Santa Madre Iglesia.
Necesitamos purificarnos de nuestros vicios, la indiferencia religiosa y los defectos morales. !Que la luz
del Cristo Resucitado les alumbre su vida y les traiga la felicidad autentica de la Pascua!
Me gustaría expresar mi sincero agradecimiento a todos los empleados de nuestra oficina y nuestros
voluntarios, que han invertido su tiempo para preparar las celebraciones de Semana Santa y la
próxima Primera Comunión el primero de Mayo. La iglesia de Sagrada Familia va a tener la Primera
Comunión a las 10:00 de la mañana en la misa de Ingles y en el oratorio de San. Gianna a la 1:00 de la tarde en la misa de latín. Por favor tengan a los niños que van a recibir este sacramento en sus oraciones.
Ellos van a recibir los sacramentos de la penitencia y la eucaristía por la primera vez en su vida.
Me alegro de anunciar que el Canon Raphael Ueda, el sacerdote del Instituto de Cristo Rey, va venir a
visitarnos durante la semana de Pascua. Canon Ueda es de Kobe, Japón y el pasó Semana Santa 2009 como diácono con nosotros en Tucson. Abbé Edward Ablang, quien paso este pasado año con nosotros como
parte de su formación seminaria, ha sido enviado a el Instituto Apostolote en Oakland, California para ayudar Canon Moreau durante su celebración de Semana Santa y el les manda a ustedes saludos de Pascua.
Sinceramente en Jesu Cristo resucitado,
Canon Richard von Menshengen
Párroco y Rector
TRADITIONAL EASTER BLESSING OF FOOD
After the 8:00 pm Easter Vigil, after the 8:30 am Low Mass & 1:00pm High Mass on
Easter Sunday
The Easter blessings of food owe their origin to the fact that particular foods, especially meat and milk products,
including eggs, were forbidden in the Middle Ages during the Lenten fast and abstinence. When the feast of Easter
brought the rigorous fast to an end, and these foods were again allowed at table, the people showed their joy and
gratitude by first taking the food to church for a blessing.
Eggs: May the grace of Thy blessing, we beseech Thee, O Lord, + come upon these eggs, that they may become a
wholesome food for Thy faithful, who gratefully receive them in honor of the Resurrection of our Lord Jesus
Christ, who liveth and reigneth unto endless ages. Amen.
Bread: Holy Lord and Father, almighty everlasting God, be pleased to bless + this bread, imparting to it Thy
hallowed favor from on high. May it be for all who eat of it a healthful food for body and soul, as well as a safeguard against every disease and all assaults of the enemy. We ask this of our Lord Jesus Christ, Thy Son, the
Bread of life who came down from heaven and gives life and salvation to the world; who lives and reigns with
Thee, in the unity of the Holy Ghost, God, forever and ever. Amen.
All foods: Lord, bless + this new produce and grant that those who eat of it in praise of Thy holy Name may be
nourished in body and soul; through Christ our Lord. Amen.

Novena to the Divine Mercy of Jesus Christ
The Novena may be prayed any time, but Jesus asked that it especially be prayed beginning on Good Friday and ending the day before Low
Sunday (what is now also known as Divine Mercy Sunday -- the Sunday after Easter).
Fourth Day:
Today bring to Me THE PAGANS AND THOSE WHO DO NOT YET KNOW
ME. I was thinking also of them during My bitter Passion, and their future
zeal comforted My Heart. Immerse them in the ocean of My mercy.
Most Compassionate Jesus, Thou art the Light of the whole world. Receive
into the abode of Thy Most Compassionate Heart the souls of pagans and of
those who as yet do not know Thee. Let the rays of Thy grace enlighten them Divine Mercy Shrine in Krakow, Poland.
that they, too, together with us, may extol Thy wonderful mercy; and do not let
them escape from the abode which is Thy Most Compassionate Heart.
Eternal Father, turn Thy merciful gaze upon the souls of pagans and of those who as yet do not know Thee*, but who are
enclosed in the Most Compassionate Heart of Jesus. Draw them to the light of the
Gospel. These souls do not know what great happiness it is to love Thee. Grant that they, too, may extol the generosity of
Thy mercy for endless ages. Amen.
Recite the Chaplet of Divine Mercy
Fifth Day:
Today bring to me THE SOULS OF HERETICS AND SCHISMATICS, and immerse them in the ocean of My mercy. During
My bitter Passion they tore at My Body and Heart, that is, My Church. As they return to unity with the Church, My wounds
heal and in this way they alleviate My Passion.
Most Merciful Jesus, Goodness Itself, Thou dost not refuse light to those who seek it of Thee. Receive into the abode of
Thy Most Compassionate Heart the souls of heretics and schismatics. Draw them by Thy light into the unity of the Church,
and do not let them escape from the abode of Thy Most Compassionate Heart; but bring it about that they, too, come to
adore the generosity of Thy mercy.
Eternal Father, turn Thy merciful gaze upon the souls of heretics and schismatics**, who have squandered Thy blessings
and misused Thy graces by obstinately persisting in their errors. Do not look upon their errors, but upon the love of Thine
own Son and upon His bitter Passion, which He underwent for their sake, since they, too, are enclosed in the Most Compassionate Heart of Jesus. Bring it about that they also may glorify Thy great mercy for endless ages. Amen.
Recite the Chaplet of Divine Mercy
** These were the original words of Our Lord Jesus Christ to Sister Faustina.
Sixth Day:
Today bring to me THE MEEK AND HUMBLE SOULS AND THE SOULS OF LITTLE CHILDREN, and immerse them in My
mercy. These souls most closely resemble My Heart. They strengthened Me during My bitter agony. I saw them as earthly
Angels, who will keep vigil at My altars. I pour out upon them whole torrents of grace. Only the humble soul is capable of
receiving My grace. I favor humble souls with My confidence.
Most Merciful Jesus, Thou thyself hast said, "Learn from Me for I am meek and humble of heart." Receive into the abode of
Thy Most Compassionate Heart all meek and humble souls and the souls of little
children. These souls send all heaven
into ecstasy, and they are the heavenly Father's favorites. They are a sweet-smelling bouquet before the throne of God;
God Himself takes delight in their fragrance. These souls have a permanent abode in Thy Most Compassionate Heart, O
Jesus, and they unceasingly sing out a hymn of love and mercy.
Eternal Father, turn Thy merciful gaze upon meek and humble souls, and upon the souls of little children, who are enfolded
in the abode which is the Most Compassionate Heart of Jesus. These souls bear the closest resemblance to Thy Son.
Their fragrance rises from the earth and reaches Thy very throne. Father of mercy and of all goodness, I beg Thee, by the
love Thou bearest these souls and by the delight Thou takest in them: bless the whole world, that all souls together may
sing out the praises of Thy mercy for endless ages. Amen.
Recite the Chaplet of Divine Mercy
Seventh Day:
Today bring to me THE SOULS WHO ESPECIALLY VENERATE AND GLORIFY MY MERCY, and immerse them in My
mercy. These souls sorrowed most over my Passion and entered most deeply into My spirit. They are living images of My
Compassionate Heart. These souls will shine with a special brightness in the next life. Not one of them will go into the fire
of hell. I shall particularly defend each one of them at the hour of death.
Most Merciful Jesus, whose Heart is Love Itself, receive into the abode of Thy Most Compassionate Heart the souls of
those who particularly extol and venerate the greatness of Thy mercy. These souls are mighty with the very power of God
Himself. In the midst of all afflictions and adversities they go forward, confident of Thy mercy. These souls are united to
Jesus and carry all mankind on their shoulders. These souls will not be judged severely, but Thy mercy will embrace them
as they depart from this life.
Eternal Father, turn Thy merciful gaze upon the souls who glorify and venerate Thy greatest attribute, that of Thy fathomless mercy, and who are enclosed in the Most Compassionate Heart of Jesus. These souls are a living Gospel; their
hands are full of deeds of mercy, and their spirit, overflowing with joy, sings a canticle of mercy to Thee, O Most High! I
beg Thee O God: Show them Thy mercy according to the hope and trust they have placed in Thee. Let there be accomplished in them the promise of Jesus, who said to them, I Myself will defend as My own glory, during their lifetime, and
especially at the hour of their death, those souls who will venerate My fathomless mercy. Amen.
Recite the Chaplet of Divine Mercy
Eighth Day:
Today bring to me THE SOULS WHO ARE DETAINED IN PURGATORY, and immerse them in the abyss of My mercy.
Let the torrents of My Blood cool down their scorching flames. All these souls are greatly loved by Me. They are making
retribution to My justice. It is in your power to bring them relief. Draw all the indulgences from the treasury of My Church
and offer them on their behalf. Oh, if you only knew the torments they suffer, you would continually offer for them the alms
of the spirit and pay off their debt to My justice.
Most Merciful Jesus, Thou Thyself hast said that Thou desirest mercy; so I bring into the abode of Thy Most Compassionate Heart the souls in Purgatory, souls who are very dear to Thee, and yet, who must make retribution to Thy justice.
May the streams of Blood and Water which gushed forth from Thy Heart put out the flames of the purifying fire, so that, in
that place, too, the power of Thy mercy may be praised.
Eternal Father, turn Thy merciful gaze upon the souls suffering in Purgatory, who are enfolded in the Most Compassionate Heart of Jesus. I beg Thee, by the sorrowful Passion of Jesus Thy Son, and by all the bitterness, with which His most
sacred Soul was flooded, manifest Thy mercy to the souls who are under Thy just scrutiny. Look upon them in no other
way than through the Wounds of Jesus, Thy dearly beloved Son; for we firmly believe that there is no limit to Thy goodness and compassion. Amen.
Recite the Chaplet of Divine Mercy
Ninth Day:
Today bring to me SOULS WHO HAVE BECOME LUKEWARM, and immerse them in the abyss of My mercy. These
souls wound My Heart most painfully. My soul suffered the most dreadful loathing in the Garden of Olives because of
lukewarm souls. They were the reason I cried out: “Father, take this cup away from Me, if it be Thy will.” For them the last
hope of salvation is to run to My mercy.
Most compassionate Jesus, Thou art Compassion Itself. I bring lukewarm souls into the abode of Thy Most Compassionate Heart. In this fire of Thy pure love let these tepid souls, who, like corpses, filled Thee with such deep loathing, be once
again set aflame. O Most Compassionate Jesus, exercise the omnipotence of Thy mercy and draw them into the very
ardor of Thy love; and bestow upon them the gift of holy love, for nothing is beyond Thy power.
Eternal Father, turn Thy merciful gaze upon lukewarm souls, who are nonetheless enfolded in the Most Compassionate
Heart of Jesus. Father of Mercy, I beg Thee by the bitter Passion of Thy Son and by His three-hour agony on the Cross:
Let them, too, glorify the abyss of Thy mercy. Amen.
Recite the Chaplet of Divine Mercy
Optional Concluding Prayer
Eternal God, in whom mercy is endless and the treasury of compassion inexhaustible, look kindly upon us and increase
Thy mercy in us, that in difficult moments we might not despair nor become despondent, but with great confidence submit
ourselves to Thy holy will, which is Love and Mercy itself.
(From the Diary of St. Faustina Kowalska)
El Domingo de Resurrección
Cristo verdaderamente resucitó de la muerte, ganando para nosotros nueva
vida. (Secuencia del Domingo de Resurrección)
Reflexión.
En el Domingo de Resurrección, la Iglesia contempla a Cristo resucitado. Así
revive la experiencia primordial en que descansa la base de su existencia. Ella
experimenta la misma maravilla que María Magdalena y las otras mujeres
que fueron a la tumba de Cristo en la mañana de Pascua y la encontraron vacía. Esa tumba llegó a ser la matriz de la vida. Quienquiera que había condenado a Jesús, creyó que El había enterrado su causa bajo una lápida helada. Los
mismos discípulos experimentaron el sentimiento del fracaso irreparable. Entendemos su sorpresa, entonces, e incluso su desconfianza ante las noticias de la tumba vacía. Pero el Resucitado no demoró en
dejarse ver El mismo y ellos se rindieron a la realidad. ¡Ellos vieron y creyeron! Dos mil años más tarde,
nosotros sentimos todavía la emoción indecible que los venció cuando ellos oyeron el saludo del Maestro: "la Paz esté con ustedes..."
La Resurrección de Cristo es la fuerza, el secreto de la Cristiandad. No es una pregunta de la mitología
ni de mero simbolismo, si no un acontecimiento concreto. Es confirmado por pruebas seguras y convincentes. La aceptación de esta verdad, aunque es fruto de la gracia de Espíritu Santo, descansa al mismo
tiempo en una base histórica sólida. En el umbral del tercer milenio, el nuevo esfuerzo por la evangelización puede empezar sólo de una experiencia renovada de este Misterio, aceptado en la fe y presenciado
en la vida. ... Papa Juan Pablo II
Actos
La Misa deberá ser celebrada en el Día de Pascua con gran solemnidad. Es apropiado que el rito penitencial en este día se acompañe con rocío de agua bendita en la Vigilia, durante la cual se debe cantar la
antífona del Vidi Aquam, o alguna otra canción de carácter bautismal. Las fuentes en la entrada de la
iglesia deben llenarse también con la misma agua. La tradición de celebrar Vísperas bautismales en el
Día de Pascua cantando salmos durante la procesión a la fuente se debe mantener donde está todavía
vigente, o ser reestablecida debidamente. El Cirio Pascual tiene su lugar apropiado cerca del púlpito o en
el altar y debe ser encendida por lo menos en todas las celebraciones litúrgicas más solemnes de la temporada hasta el domingo de Pentecostés, lo mismo en Misa que en la oración Matutina y Nocturna. Después del tiempo de Pascua el Cirio se debe guardar con respeto en el baptisterio, así que en la celebración del Bautismo la vela del bautizado pueda ser encendida de él. En la celebración de funerales, el Cirio Pascual debe estar cerca del ataúd para indicar que la muerte de un cristiano es su propia Pascua. El
Cirio Pascual no debe encenderse ni colocarse en el santuario fuera de la temporada de Pascua .
Oración
Dios nuestro Padre, creador de todo, hoy es el día de la alegría de Pascua. Esta es la mañana en que el
Señor apareció a los hombres que habían comenzado a perder su esperanza y abrieron sus ojos a lo que
las escrituras predijeron: que primero El debió morir, y entonces El resucitaría y subiría en la presencia
gloriosa del Padre. Que el Señor resucitado inspire a nuestras mentes y abra nuestros ojos para que lo
podamos reconocer en la fracción del pan, y seguirlo en su Resurrección. Te lo pedimos por Cristo nuestro Señor. Amen.

Novena a la Divina Misericordia
Empieza el Viernes Santo y termina el domingo después de resurrección, o conocido como el
domingo de la divina misericordia
Cuarto día
Hoy, tráeme a los paganos* y aquellos que todavía no Me conocen. También pensaba en ellos durante Mi amarga
Pasión y su futuro celo consoló Mi Corazón. Sumérgelos en el mar de Mi misericordia.
Jesús compasivísimo, que eres la luz del mundo entero. Acoge en la morada de Tu piadosísimo Corazón a las almas de los
paganos que todavía no Te conocen. Que los rayos de Tu gracia las iluminen para que también ellas unidas a nosotros,
ensalcen Tu misericordia admirable y no las dejes salir de la morada de Tu compasivísimo Corazón.
Padre eterno, mira con misericordia a las almas de los paganos y de los que todavía no Te conocen, pero que están encerrados en el muy compasivo Corazón de Jesús. Atráelas hacia la luz del Evangelio. Estas almas desconocen la gran felicidad
que es amarte. Concédeles que también ellas ensalcen la generosidad de Tu misericordia por los siglos de los siglos.
Amén. Recite la coronilla de la Divina Misericordia.
Quinto día
Hoy, atráeme a las almas de los herejes y de los cismáticos**, y sumérgelas en el mar de Mi misericordia. Durante
Mi amarga Pasión, desgarraron Mi cuerpo y Mi Corazón, es decir, Mi Iglesia. Según regresan a la Iglesia, Mis llagas cicatrizan [333] y de este modo alivian Mi Pasión.
Jesús sumamente misericordioso, que eres la bondad misma, Tú no niegas la luz a quienes Te la piden. Acoge en la morada de Tu muy compasivo Corazón a las almas de los herejes y las almas de los cismáticos y llévalas con Tu luz a la unidad
con la Iglesia; no la dejes alejarse de la morada de Tu compasivísimo Corazón, sino haz que también ellas glorifiquen la
generosidad de Tu misericordia.
Padre eterno, mira con misericordia a las almas de los herejes y de los cismáticos que han malgastado Tus bendiciones y
han abusado de Tus gracias por persistir obstinadamente en sus errores. No mires sus errores, sino el amor de Tu Hijo y su
amarga Pasión que sufrió por ellos ya que también ellos están acogidos en el sumamente compasivo Corazón de Jesús.
Haz que también ellos glorifiquen Tu gran misericordia por los siglos de los siglos. Amén.
Recite la coronilla de la Divina Misericordia.
* Nuestro Señor originalmente usó las palabras “los paganos”, “ herejes y cismáticos”.
Sexto día
Hoy, tráeme a las almas mansas y humildes y a las almas de los niños pequeños, y sumérgelas en Mi misericordia.
Éstas son las almas más semejantes a Mi Corazón. Ellas Me fortalecieron durante Mi amarga agonía. Las veía como Ángeles terrestres que velarían al pie de Mis altares. Sobre ellas derramo torrentes enteros de gracias. Solamente el alma humilde es capaz de recibir Mi gracia; concedo Mi confianza a las almas humildes.
Jesús, tan misericordioso, Tu Mismo has dicho: Aprendan de Mí que soy manso y humilde de corazón. Acoge en la morada de Tu compasivísimo Corazón a las almas mansas y humildes y a las almas de los niños pequeños. Estas almas llevan
a todo el cielo al éxtasis y son las preferidas del Padre celestial. Son un ramillete perfumado ante el trono de Dios, de cuyo
perfume se deleita Dios Mismo. Estas almas tienen una morada permanente en Tu compasivísimo Corazón y cantan sin
cesar un himno de amor y misericordia por la eternidad.
Padre eterno, mira con misericordia a las almas mansas y humilde si a las almas de los niños pequeños que están encerradas en el muy compasivo Corazón de Jesús. Estas almas son las más semejantes a Tu Hijo. Su fragancia asciende desde la tierra y alcanza Tu trono. Padre de misericordia y de toda bondad, Te suplico por el amor que tienes por estas almas
y el gozo que Te proporcionan, bendice al mundo entero para que todas las almas canten juntas las alabanzas de Tu misericordia por los siglos de los siglos. Amén.
Recite la coronilla de la Divina Misericordia.
Séptimo día
Hoy, tráeme a las almas que veneran y glorifican Mi misericordia de modo especial y sumérgelas en Mi misericordia. Estas almas son las que más lamentaron Mi Pasión y penetraron más profundamente en Mi espíritu. Ellas son un reflejo viviente de Mi Corazón compasivo. Estas almas resplandecerán con un resplandor
especial en la vida futura. Ninguna de ellas irá al fuego del infierno. Defenderé de modo especial a cada una
en la hora de la muerte.
Jesús misericordiosisimo, cuyo Corazón es el amor mismo, acoge en la morada de Tu compasivísimo Corazón a las
almas que veneran y ensalzan de modo particular la grandeza de Tu misericordia. Estas almas son fuertes con el
poder de Dios Mismo. En medio de toda clase de aflicciones y adversidades siguen adelante confiadas en Tu misericordia, y unidas a Ti, cargan sobre sus hombros a toda la humanidad. Estas almas no serán juzgadas severamente,
sino que Tu misericordia las protegerá en la hora de la muerte.
Padre eterno, mira con misericordia a aquellas almas que glorifican y veneran Tu mayor atributo, es decir, Tu misericordia insondable y que están encerradas en el compasivísimo Corazón de Jesús. Estas almas son un Evangelio
viviente, sus manos están llenas de obras de misericordia y sus corazones, desbordantes de gozo, Te cantan, oh Altísimo, un cántico de misericordia. Te suplico, OH Dios, muéstrales Tu misericordia según la esperanza y la confianza que han puesto en Ti. Que se cumpla en ellas la promesa de Jesús quien les dijo: A las almas que veneren esta
infinita misericordia Mía, Yo Mismo las defenderé como Mi gloria durante sus vidas y especialmente en la
hora de la muerte. Amen.
Recite la coronilla de la Divina Misericordia.
Octavo día
Hoy tráeme a las almas que están en la cárcel del purgatorio y sumérgelas en el abismo de Mi misericordia.
Que los torrentes de Mi sangre refresquen el ardor del purgatorio. Todas estas almas son muy amadas por
Mi. Ellas cumplen con el justo castigo que se debe a Mi justicia. Está en tu poder llevarles alivio. Haz uso de
todas las indulgencias del tesoro de Mi Iglesia y ofrécelas en su nombre…. OH, si conocieras los tormentos
que ellas sufren ofrecerías continuamente por ellas las limosnas del espíritu y saldarías las deudas que tienen
con Mi justicia.
Jesús misericordiosisimo, Tu Mismo has dicho que deseas la misericordia; heme aquí que llevo a la morada de Tu
muy compasivo Corazón a las almas del purgatorio, almas que Te son muy queridas, pero que deben pagar su culpa
adeudada a Tu justicia. Que los torrentes de Sangre y Agua que brotaron de Tu Corazón, apaguen el fuego del purgatorio para que también allí sea glorificado el poder de Tu misericordia.
Padre eterno, mira con misericordia a las almas que sufren en el purgatorio y que están encerradas en el muy compasivo Corazón de Jesús. Te suplico por la dolorosa Pasión de Jesús, Tu Hijo, y por toda la amargura con la cual su
sacratísima alma fue inundada, muestra Tu misericordia a las almas que están bajo Tu justo escrutinio. No las mires
sino a través de las heridas de Jesús, Tu amadísimo Hijo, ya que creemos que Tu bondad y Tu compasión no tienen
limites. Amen.
Recite la coronilla de la Divina Misericordia.
Noveno día
Hoy, tráeme a las almas tibias y sumérgelas en el abismo de Mi misericordia. Estas almas son las que mas
dolorosamente hieren Mi Corazón. A causa de las almas tibias, Mi alma experimentó la más intensa repugnancia en el Huerto de los Olivos. A causa de ellas dije: Padre, aleja de Mí este cáliz, si es Tu voluntad. Para
ellas, la última tabla de salvación consiste en recurrir a Mi misericordia.
Jesús piadosísimo, que eres la compasión misma, Te traigo a las almas tibias a la morada de Tu piadosísimo Corazón. Que estas almas heladas que se parecen a cadáveres y Te llenan de gran repugnancia se calienten con el fuego de Tu amor puro. OH Jesús tan compasivo, ejercita la omnipotencia de Tu misericordia y atráelas al mismo ardor
de Tu amor y concédeles el amor santo, porque Tú lo puedes todo.
Padre eterno, mira con misericordia a las almas tibias que, sin embargo, están acogidas en el piadosísimo Corazón
de Jesús. Padre de la misericordia, Te suplico por la amarga Pasión de Tu Hijo y por su agonía de tres horas en la
cruz, permite que también ellas glorifiquen el abismo de Tu misericordia. Amen.
