This chaplet comes to us from St Faustina. The prayers are derived from the mystical encounters and visions she had during her life and were made widespread by St John Paul the Great (Pope John Paul the Second). In the Divine Mercy Chaplet, each person recognizes the need of God's mercy and acknowledges the never-ending love that God had shown through the cross. The image shown above is the Divine Mercy image. This is an encounter St Faustina had with Christ and had painted from her descriptions. Typically it has the phrase "Jesus I Trust In You" printed below it. Below are the instructions to pray this chaplet. This is highly encouraged to be prayed throughout Lent and especially on Fridays at 3pm. It doesn't take too long to pray, but its message is important. More information about it can be found at: www.thedivinemercy.org/message/history Some people like to pray the Divine Mercy Chaplet through song. Here is a version that I like to use. God bless!
