Burton by Janine Burton The Divine Mercy Chaplet The second Sunday of Easter (April 15th) is proclaimed as "Divine Mercy Sunday" to remind us of the mercy that God has for us in his grace to forgive and bestow healing upon us. Here is a very short history of this popular devotion to Divine Mercy: Helena Kowalska was born in the village of Glogowiec west of Lodz, Poland on August 25, 1905. She became a nun in the Congregation of The Sister’s of Our Lady of Mercy on April 30, 1926 and changed her name to Sister Mary Faustina. Sister Faustina began to have a number of religious visions that lasted throughout her entire life. February 22, 1931 Sister Faustina had a vision of the Lord who said:"Paint an image according to the pattern you see, with the signature: Jesus I Trust In You. I desire that this image be venerated, first in your chapel, and throughout the whole world." On September 13, 1935 sister received another revelation that would go hand in hand with the image, known as the Divine Mercy. The revelation came in the form of a prayer that should be said in front of the Image. "Eternal Father, I offer You the Body and Blood, Soul and Divinity of your dearly beloved Son, Our Lord Jesus Christ. In atonement for our sins and those of the whole world. For the sake of His sorrowful passion, have mercy on us and on the whole world." These are the words of the devotion that we now call "the Divine Mercy chaplet." Sister Faustina died on October 5, 1938 and was declared a saint on April 30, 2000. Join us each day at the church at 3pm (Divine Mercy hour when Jesus died on the cross) beginning April 6th to pray a 9-day novena of this simple devotion for ourselves and all those in need of the Lord's mercy.

Abril 01, 2012 Domingo de Ramos “De la Pasión del Señor” Coronilla de la Divina Misericordia El Segundo Domingo de Pascua (Abril 15) es proclamado "Domingo de la Divina Misericordia" para recordarnos de la misericordia que Dios nos tiene por medio de su gracia de perdonar y concedernos la sanación. Esta es una breve historia sobre la devoción popular a la divina misericordia: Helena Kowalska nació en el pueblo de Glogowiec al oeste de Lodz, Polonia el 25 de agosto de 1905. Ella se hizo monja en la Congregación de las Hermanas de Nuestra Señora de la Misericordia el 30 de abril de 1926 y cambio su nombre a Hermana María Faustina. La Hermana Faustina comenzó a tener varias visiones religiosas durante toda su vida. El 22 de febrero de 1931, la Hermana Faustina tuvo una visión de nuestro Señor quien dijo. “Pinta una imagen Mía según la visión que vez, con la inscripción: Jesús, yo Confío en Tí. Deseo que esta imagen sea venerada, primero en tu capilla, y después por el mundo entero.” El 13 de septiembre de 1935 la hermana recibió otra revelación que iría de mano en mano con la imagen, conocida como la Divina Misericordia. La revelación le llego en forma de oración como debía de rezarse en frente de la imagen. “Padre Eterno, te ofrezco el Cuerpo y la Sangre, el Alma y la Divinidad de Tu Amadísimo Hijo, nuestro Señor Jesucristo, como propiciación de nuestros pecados y los del mundo entero.” Estas son las palabras de la devoción que ahora nosotros llamamos "la Coronilla de la Divina Misericordia." La hermana Faustina murió el 5 de octubre de 1938 y fue declarada santa el 30 de abril del año 2000. Acompáñenos en la parroquia todos los días a las 3:00PM (Hora divina misericordiosa cuando Jesús murió en la cruz) comenzando el 6 de abril para rezar la novena de esta sencilla devoción por nosotros mismos y por todos los que necesitan la misericordia de nuestro Señor. Campaña de Desarrollo y Caridad 2012 Esta semana hay una forma adjunta al boletín para el CDA 2012. La meta de nuestra parroquia es de solo $8000 así que aportemos nuestra parte para ayudar a nuestro obispo a pagar por la educación de nuestros seminaristas, el Instituto Kino para educación a los adultos, apoyo a las escuelas Católicas, alberges para embarazos, y agencias de apoyo a las parroquias.
