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

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

My dear brothers & sisters in Christ,

My ordeal began with a sudden sharp pain on my left wrist as I was taking out my purse in September 2002. The slightest movement just made it worse and I couldn’t sleep at night despite taking pain killers.

The orthopaedic specialist at first diagnosed tendonitis and prescribed medicine and physiotherapy. He later said that it was a degenerative disease but the MRI finding showed a traumatic cause (even though I did not fall or injure myself). As the … 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

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

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

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 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
