Divine Mercy helped me in my painful health situation and troubles in my family

In 1984, I faced serious challenges in my marriage, and in 1994, my only son went through a very dark season. It was heartbreaking and felt hopeless. Then in 2006, I was diagnosed with painful rheumatoid arthritis, which continues to make daily life difficult. Despite all this, I held on to hope, trusting that God would help me.

I regularly visited the adoration chapel to pour out my heart, and I still do. Through Mother Angelica’s EWTN show, I sent in prayer intentions and began my devotion to the Divine Mercy. I found someone to lean on—my Lord and Savior, JESUS. My faith, hope, and trust in Him deepened. I experienced His forgiveness and the cleansing of my sins.

During the COVID pandemic in 2020, I discovered the Centre for Divine Mercy on Facebook LIVE. I joined their daily prayer meetings, which are now on YouTube. This prayer group has been a precious gift, helping me grow in faith and know JESUS more deeply.

In 2021, my son needed professional help, and once again, the prayer group became a source of strength for me. I now pray daily with the Prayer Group, but also personally, for the intentions shared during our meetings and intercede for the whole world. I’m deeply grateful to have found a prayer community where I truly belong. JESUS is my strength and my all. JESUS, I TRUST IN YOU.
