When the dark clouds come rolling by,

Sending waves that touch the sky,

Tossing your boat, in the stormy tide of life,

You cried out “O Lord, do not leave me in vain,’

For you have been shunned, a leper and a misfit,

By your very own as in days of old.

Welcoming death you open your arms,

To embrace it,

But the good Lord, full of love and mercy,

Sends his grace and his strength,

To let you bear fruit, in abundance,

To be his missionary and carrier of the Good News,

Touching the hearts… 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

On the 14/2/2015, I attended Mass at the Church of Divine Mercy, Penang in conjunction with the World Day of the Sick. I received the Sacrament of Anointing of the Sick besides the Eucharist. When Rev Fr Martin walked towards me for the anointing, I felt the Lord’s divine presence. My heart was telling me that it was the Lord and not Father Martin coming to meet me. I just knew it was Him.

Suddenly, I felt unworthy and didn’t dare look at His face whilst the prayers were being said together… Read more

It is the LORD!

All glory, power, honor, praise and thanksgiving be unto our God!

My wife Karen and myself were blessed with our first child, Ivana on 12 Feb 2016 after 5 years of marriage.

It has been an interesting journey for both of us as initially we thought of going for an IVF treatment. I was reluctant as I knew pretty well the church’s position on this matter and explained to my wife too. But not wanting to discourage Karen I agreed to just go for the consultation first. It t… Read more

This is the story of a couple from India, who moved to Penang 7 years ago when the husband found work as a guard. They lived happily, having been blessed with two beautiful daughters now aged 5 & 6. Disaster struck a few months ago when the 42-year-old husband suffered a massive heart attack and passed away. Many kind people around them including our CDM parishioners and Caritas helped with funeral arrangements, house rent, food and other basic necessities. All that the now widowed Selvi wan… Read more

Alleluia Alleluia! I adore you Father God, my Lord Jesus! My heart was fired with prayerful worship fragrance as I journeyed during the CDM Novena. As I knelt down in front of the Crucifix of my Lord Jesus at the altar, I felt my soul light up and reach the sanctuary of the Lord. Alleluia Alleluia! Praise Father God for his healing embrace, my Beacon of Light and my Refuge. Through Rev Fr Michael Raymond, His Holy Compassionate heart shines in my heart inspired by the Holy Spirit. Now with peace… Read more

I don’t feel like going to the healing mass initially after a long day at work. The thought getting stronger when I saw Grab fare hikes was high. It was double the price that I usually grab to church. However, I still had to go because I have promised someone that I’ll be there! Healing mass started with praise and worship. The woman sitting next to me caught my attention. She was hopping and clapping with joy throughout the praise and worship. My heart sank for a while. I almost can’t re… Read more

The location of the Jesus image

It was Maundy Thursday April 2nd 2015. My sister, Elizabeth and I normally spend a quiet few moments after Mass and leave before midnight, but this time, we waited for my son, Vijay to join us after work.

Upon entering the Church, I was taken in by the ambience. All the lights were switched off except for the light on the Blessed Sacrament. Together with the simple floral arrangement, the ‘cave like” effect brought me to Jesus’ time.

As I was looking … Read more

I want to thank God for the gift of life and for what he has done to me and my family. I really thank God for it is not by power but by His grace that I am alive. I also want to thank God for my studies here in Malaysia.

The Lord has been providing for me and helping me understand and I want to use this opportunity to thank the Lord for saving my life when I had an accident three years ago and nothing happened to me. I want the Church of Divine Mercy to keep on praying for me and my family f… Read more

I would like to share my experience of the benefit of attending BEC. I am from BEC St. Mark 1.

In June 2014, I had a rude shock when my 12 year old daughter went into depression, she was bullied in school and isolated by her teachers, and she felt as if no one loves her. She was afraid of being herself in crowd. She didn’t want to mix with anyone. She lost her self-esteem. She would cling to us, parents and the more I try to help her, the more depressed I became and slowly, I started to f… Read more
