Ninth Day:
Today bring to Me SOULS WHO HAVE BECOME LUKEWARM,* and immerse them in the abyss of My mercy. These souls wound My Heart most painfully. My soul suffered the most dreadful loathing in the Garden of Olives because of lukewarm souls. They were the reason I cried out: 'Father, take this cup away from Me, if it be Your will.' For them, the last hope of salvation is to run to My mercy.
Most compassionate Jesus, You are Compassion Itself. I bring lukewarm souls into the abode of Your Most Compassionate Heart. In this fire of Your pure love, let these tepid souls, who, like corpses, filled You with such deep loathing, be once again set aflame. O Most Compassionate Jesus, exercise the omnipotence of Your mercy and draw them into the very ardor of Your love, and bestow upon them the gift of holy love, for nothing is beyond Your power. Eternal Father, turn Your merciful gaze upon lukewarm souls who are nonetheless enfolded in the Most Compassionate Heart of Jesus. Father of Mercy, I beg You by the bitter Passion of Your Son and by His three-hour agony on the Cross: Let them, too, glorify the abyss of Your mercy. Amen.
Chaplet of Divine Mercy
All: In the name of the Father, and of the Son,

Opening Prayers
All: You expired, Jesus, but the source of life gushed

for the whole world. O fount of life, unfathomable
divine mercy, envelop the whole world and empty
yourself out upon us.

the heart of Jesus as a fount of mercy for us,
AlI: I trust in you!

our Lord, Jesus Christ,
All: in atonement for our sins and those of the whole
world.

All: I trust in you
Closing Prayer
All: Eternal God, in whom mercy is endless and the
Treasury of compassion inexhaustible, look kindly
upon us and increase your mercy in us, that in
difficult moments, we might not despair nor become
despondent, but with great confidence, submit
ourselves to Your holy will, which is love and mercy
itself. Amen
