This Holy Thursday, 17^th April 2014, I was intent on spending one hour in adoration instead of the hurried minutes I had spent in all the previous years. The ambience after mass was perfect when the lights were dimmed in the Church of Divine Mercy, Penang and the solemn voice of our parish priest, Father Martin came through, inviting all present to spend one hour with the Lord.

I didn’t really know what to do or say so I started with praise and thanksgiving for all the blessings I had receive… Read more

I have been married to my wife Daina Sulimin for more than 18 years (she’s a Catholic from Sabah). Never in my wildest dreams did I ever think that I will be accepting Christ & giving my testimony. In fact, I’m a stubborn husband and a staunch Buddhist. I have once told her sarcastically that, “I want to marry you, but not your religion”. I’m not sure how many men dare to say this to your future wife! Please don’t ahhh! ”. She should have asked me to read (1 Corinthians 7: 1-40; About Marriage).… Read more

I was admitted to Island Hospital for a week with a Urinary Tract Infection. During my stay in hospital I met a family (mother and son) from Indonesia who were across the room from mine. The son, Hendrick was very sick and every day from 4pm his temperature spiked and he would shiver uncontrollably while complaining of pain all over. Samples taken from his spinal cord showed that his white cell count was very high and his mother was told that one of his organs was swollen.

Hendrick’s mother… Read more

I had severe pain on my (L) breast on the 7 April 2015 (Tuesday) for no apparent reason. The pain was unbearable & I feared for the worst. I remembered of the Novena in the morning & started to pray the Divine Mercy chaplet. After completing the chaplet, I went on with my work.

A few hours later, my husband camehome to take me to the clinic & only then I realized that there was no more pain! I was healed completely.

Praise the Lord and His mercy on Me! AMEN

For many years, my husband, Francis and I have been giving home tuition and we were also involved in the catering business. 6 months ago, sometime in November 2014, both of the businesses collapsed.

Our source of income was gone and we were filled with a deep sorrow, pain and fear over our future. We approached Father Martin and asked him to pray over our predicament. Surrendering our problems to the Divine Mercy, we started to recite the 3 0’clock prayers. We also offered petitions and c… Read more

Both incidences happened 20 years ago

1) At my work place

Part of my duties was to confirm and verify the chemical that the production line is using. An operator uses an electrical pump to pump the acid from a 200 gallon drum to a big storage tank. One day, during the process of transporting the acid, the pump hose somehow wasn’t locked properly. Acid burst out from the dislodged pump and it sprayed directly on to my wrist and down the lower part of my body.

Somehow, I didn’t panic. I sto… Read more

On May 29th 2016, at Sunday Mass; 10 minutes into the sermon by Fr. Martin at Church of Divine Mercy, I saw a halo around Father Martin from head to toe.

Father Martin was talking about the Eucharist: the significance and importance of partaking in the Eucharist in the Catholic Church. I was attracted to this glowing incessantly bright yellow light which outlined the periphery of the whole body.

The yellow light tapered to white light before it blended into the surrounding environment. Thi… Read more

Our Lord is risen! Our Lord, Jesus Christ is risen indeed! Praise Him our Almighty Lord!

A second chance in life has taken me through a different journey with our Lord Jesus Christ. I used to be a Sunday parishioner, complacent and taking life for granted until that day, 18th September 2014. My experience with God has touched my life to witness how real and alive God is. I hardly had time for God but He was there with me when I had my heart attack.

Ignorantly, the last minor attack came … Read more

Before I retired from my job, I prayed that our Lord will guide and direct me on what I should do next. By the grace of God, I was called to serve in the Finance ministry and from there as PPC chairperson of the Church of Divine Mercy.

It has been an eye opening experience. Everyday Our Lord teaches me humility and how to get things done His way and for His greater glory. In my previous working environment, I was all powerful with authority vested in my by my appointment. In my new role i… Read more

Our Church was celebrating its feast day, Divine Mercy Sunday on 27th April 2014. As I knelt down to pray before mass, my gaze was drawn to the tabernacle. My focus was on what looked like the letter P and I wondered what it meant. As I stared at it, I heard the Lord say to me, “I am truly present in the Eucharist. Every time you look at the P, I want you to remember that it is my real presence there”. Parish: Church of Divine Mercy (Penang) Read more
