It’s been two long years of fear and anxiety amongst the people and the mandatory following of pandemic protocols and SOPs. It appears that thankfully we are now returning to complete normalcy. Carnival, Shigmo and the recent conduct of elections have all passed off with a minimum of fuss and hassles. As a result, the Government has already endorsed the expert Committee recommendations and allowed the opening of cinema halls, gyms, casinos and restaurants at full capacity, after the last month’s decision to open up the Schools and Colleges . However, we have been rightly advised to follow appropriate behaviour which basically means physical distancing and use of masks. Read more

Marie Magdalene nanv mhojem,
Jezucho hanv khub mog kori,
Mornant tachea vanvoileo dukhancheo zhori.

Over the years, the lives of innumerable people have changed through praying a simple prayer that our Lord gave to St. Faustina in the 1930s. Maria Faustina Kowalska, was a Young nun in a convent of the Congregation of Sisters of Our Lady of Mercy in Poland, during that time.

In the pages of her diary, we find many spiritual gems of extraordinary revelations she had received from our Lord Jesus Like this one which compels us to trust in Jesus’ endless Mercy

I remind you, My daughter, that as often as you hear the clock strike the third hour, immerse yourself completely in My mercy, adoring and glorifying it; invoke its omnipotence for the whole world, and particularly for poor sinners, for at that moment mercy was opened wide for every soul. In this hour you can obtain everything for yourself and for others for the asking; it was the hour of grace for the whole world – mercy triumphed over justice” (Diary, 1572) Read more

He bled and He cried
He was weak and broken
He delivered us, He loves us
Even though He wished that it didn’t happen

He fasted for 40 days
Stayed away from satans temptation
Nothing to eat or drink
He gave us a chance to go straight to Heaven Read more
