Bishop Brennan has asked the priest to publish web sites that will be having Special Divine Mercy liturgies from The National Shrine of the Divine Mercy in Stockbridge, MA. These will be available on Saint Gabriel Radio, EWTN, and on the Facebook page of the National Shrine of the Divine Mercy. In order to do this I am providing the information and links below, and some attachments related to the Divine Mercy celebrations.

During this time of the pandemic, when we say time and time again from the depth of our hearts "Jesus, I trust in You!" let us remember the words of Pope Saint John Paul II: "Those who sincerely say ‘Jesus, I trust in You’ will find comfort in all their anxieties and fears. There is nothing more man needs than Divine Mercy – that love which is benevolent, which is compassionate, which raises man above his weakness to the infinite heights to the holiness of God." —Shrine of Divine Mercy in Cracow, Poland on June 7, 1997
DURING THIS RATHER DARK TIME IN THE HISTORY OF THE CHURCH IN THE UNITED STATES WHEN WE ARE NOT CELEBRATING A PUBLIC MASS, YOU ARE ENCOURAGED TO MAKE A SPIRITUAL COMMUNION.
THE CHURCH ENCOURAGES, EVEN DAILY, HOLY COMMUNION, BUT IF AT ANY TIME WE CANNOT GO TO MASS IN OR OUT OF THIS SEASON OF THE CORONAVIRUS, WE CAN STILL UNITE OURSELVES TO THE EUCHARIST THROUGH MAKING A SPIRITUAL COMMUNION.
BY MAKING A SPIRITUAL COMMUNION, WE EXPRESS OUR FAITH IN CHRIST’S REAL PRESENCE IN THE EUCHARIST AND ASK HIM TO UNITE HIMSELF WITH US.
