Divine Mercy Novena

Offer today's intention and prayer, then pray the Divine Mercy Chaplet.

Day 1 — All mankind, especially sinners

Jesus said to St. Faustina: "Today bring to Me all mankind, especially all sinners, and immerse them in the ocean of My mercy. In this way you will console Me in the bitter grief into which the loss of souls plunges Me." We begin where mercy begins — at the side of every wounded heart.

Today's intention:

For all mankind, especially poor sinners, that they may be drawn into the Heart of Jesus and never escape it.

Prayer for this intention:

Most Merciful Jesus, look not upon our sins but upon the trust we place in Your goodness. Receive us all into the abode of Your Compassionate Heart, and never let us escape from it. Eternal Father, for the sake of His sorrowful Passion, show all sinners Your mercy. Amen.

Divine Mercy Chaplet

Our Father

Our Father, who art in heaven,

hallowed be thy name.

Thy kingdom come.

Thy will be done on earth, as it is in heaven.

Give us this day our daily bread,

and forgive us our trespasses,

as we forgive those who trespass against us.

And lead us not into temptation,

but deliver us from evil.

Amen.

Pater noster, qui es in cælis,

sanctificétur nomen tuum.

Advéniat regnum tuum.

Fiat volúntas tua, sicut in cælo et in terra.

Panem nostrum quotidiánum da nobis hódie,

et dimítte nobis débita nostra,

sicut et nos dimíttimus debitóribus nostris.

Et ne nos indúcas in tentatiónem,

sed líbera nos a malo.

Amen.

Hail Mary

Hail Mary, full of grace, the Lord is with thee.

Blessed art thou amongst women,

and blessed is the fruit of thy womb, Jesus.

Holy Mary, Mother of God,

pray for us sinners,

now and at the hour of our death.

Amen.

Ave María, grátia plena, Dóminus tecum.

Benedícta tu in muliéribus,

et benedíctus fructus ventris tui, Iesus.

Sancta María, Mater Dei,

ora pro nobis peccatóribus,

nunc et in hora mortis nostræ.

Amen.

Apostles' Creed

I believe in God, the Father almighty, Creator of heaven and earth,

and in Jesus Christ, his only Son, our Lord,

who was conceived by the Holy Spirit, born of the Virgin Mary,

suffered under Pontius Pilate, was crucified, died and was buried;

he descended into hell; on the third day he rose again from the dead;

he ascended into heaven, and is seated at the right hand of God the Father almighty;

from there he shall come to judge the living and the dead.

I believe in the Holy Spirit,

the holy catholic Church, the communion of saints,

the forgiveness of sins,

the resurrection of the body,

and life everlasting.

Amen.

Credo in Deum Patrem omnipoténtem, Creatórem cæli et terræ.

Et in Iesum Christum, Fílium eius únicum, Dóminum nostrum,

qui concéptus est de Spíritu Sancto, natus ex María Vírgine,

passus sub Póntio Piláto, crucifíxus, mórtuus, et sepúltus,

descéndit ad ínferos, tértia die resurréxit a mórtuis,

ascéndit ad cælos, sedet ad déxteram Dei Patris omnipoténtis,

inde ventúrus est iudicáre vivos et mórtuos.

Credo in Spíritum Sanctum,

sanctam Ecclésiam cathólicam, sanctórum communiónem,

remissiónem peccatórum,

carnis resurrectiónem,

vitam ætérnam.

Amen.

On the Our Father bead:

Eternal Father

Eternal Father, I offer You the Body and Blood, Soul and Divinity of Your dearly beloved Son, Our Lord Jesus Christ, in atonement for our sins and those of the whole world.
