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

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

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

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

It was Friday 31st March 2017. For no reason in particular, I went over to my parish, CDM that morning. I was in front of the large image of the Divine Mercy when Catherine Lee one of our parishioners came along. I asked her if she was going to the Holy Land in December. Since she had been the previous year, she directed the same question to me. As I mulled over family commitments, time and financial constraints, I told her that I doubted if my husband, a non-Catholic would be interested since… 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

For the past two years I had a persistent blocked nose due to constant sneezing and also a runny nose. As a result, I had difficulty in breathing. I had to breathe through my mouth, especially during the night. Whenever I woke up in the middle of the night, my mouth would get very dry and painful. I had seen an ENT specialist twice and he prescribed a steroid spray with some medication, but I did not get any better.

On Feb 14, 2015, I decided to go for the healing mass for the sick at the… Read more

I would like to share a testimony I witnessed early last year (2014) in Cathedral of the Holy Spirit. My wife and I were attending some FLM functions during that time. After the function, as my wife developed neck pain, she asked Fr Bernard to pray over her. During that period, I was standing beside her. When Fr Bernard started the prayer by touching my wife’s forehead, she suddenly keeled over backwards so peacefully and gently. It was as if someone was supporting her from behind and gent… Read more

When I prayed for my son who was studying for the priesthood in the seminary, the Lord heard and answered my prayers.

In 2005, my son gave me the Divine Mercy prayer book and requested me to say this prayer daily at 3:00 p.m. I prayed daily in the morning & evening but I did not say the Prayer of Divine Mercy.

Then, in 2007, when my son was pursuing his studies for the priesthood in the Singapore seminary, he asked for my prayers again. As per his request, from that day onwards, I start… 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
