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

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

10th Dec 2017, was the 8th day of our pilgrimage in the Holy Land and we were slated to follow the path of Jesus to carry the cross on the Via Dolorosa. We broke into smaller groups so that we could all take turns carrying it. My husband who is much taller than me carried the front of the wooden cross while I and a few others took the remaining part. Despite so many of us carrying it, I felt the weight of the cross on my upper arm which started to ache badly. I couldn’t wait for the next gro… 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

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

Dear Mother of Perpetual Help,

I believe I have already thanked you in my heart a long time ago when your powerful intercession to Jesus allowed my eldest sister an extension of life here on earth.

Nevertheless, I felt that I should write out this letter of thanksgiving which seems long overdue and place it at your shrine to give testimony to your love and perpetual care for all who turn to you for help.

I can never thank you enough for powerfully interceding to God for my eldest siste… Read more

Due to my irregular heart beat, I was given a new medication in the year 2014. After taking that new medication, I started to develop blood in urine, a condition known as Haemeturia. The doctor prescribed another alternative medicine but the bleeding started again, for about 60 hours non-stop.

I continued praying to the Divine Mercy for healing. All this time, I have been praying for Christ’s mercy for the medication to be suitable for me.

In late December, I decided to attend mass and t… Read more

I am sorry I cannot remember the actual date. It was sometime in early 2015. I was quite sick and feeling very down due to some personal and family problems. I was early for Mass on that day so the church was quite empty and quiet. I was sitting alone on the front pew- first row, praying quietly. When I pray I always have the habit of looking down and concentrate on my prayers.

Suddenly I heard a calm and clear voice saying “Look at the cross.” I was taken by surprise, I looked around, no… Read more

I was a sinner and God in His Mercy called me to accept Jesus Christ as my saviour. After accepting Him in the year 1994, I became the beloved Child of God. God is always with me. When I need help I call on to Him and many, many of my prayers have been answered. Even though aches and pains and the misery of the world come my way, I always experience joy when I receive Jesus in Holy Communion. Holy Mass is healing and I love to go for mass. I would encourage everyone to go to daily mass and … Read more

During my recent tour to Guilin (China) with my sister, I took a path less travelled. I hiked up to Longsheng rice terraces.

The terraced fields are built along the winding slopes from the riverside up to the mountain top, between 600-800m above sea level. A coiling terrace line starts from the foot of the mountain up to the mountain top dividing the mountain into layers of water in spring, layers of green rice shoots in summer, layers of rice in the fall and layers of frost in winter. The te… Read more
