Divine Mercy Chaplet
Holy Hour of Adoration at 3:00 pm
Sunday, April 12th @ 3
St. Vincent de Paul, Bucksport

On the occasion of St. Faustina’s vision of Jesus, He instructed her with the prayers of Divine Mercy that are to be recited on the first Sunday after Easter at 3:00 pm. (the hour of His death). His promise to those who attend confession before the reciting of the Chaplet Prayer is that if they die before any additional sins, they will go directly to heaven.

Additionally, any prayers they requested of Him in trust would be granted if the prayers were not in contradiction to His will.
You are invited to join us in this offering of mercy from Jesus on Sunday, April 12th at 3:00 pm, St. Vincent de Paul Church.
