St. Mary’s Readers’ Roster May 2025
The roster for readers at the Saturday vigil, 12 noon and 7pm Masses on Sundays in St. Mary’s for the month of May 2025 has been sent to all readers by email. If any reader has not received it a copy is available for inspection in the sacristy.
Divine Mercy devotion:
Faithful followers of Jesus are asked to pray fervently for the Church and the whole world in these troubled and dangerous times. The Christian message is to love God above all else, and to love our neighbour as we love ourselves. This is being increasingly ignored and rejected. More and more, the world is ignoring God and attempting to rewrite the Ten Commandments to suit its own sinful ways.
Jesus requested that the Feast of Divine Mercy (the Sunday after Easter Sunday) be preceded by a Novena of Chaplets of Divine Mercy beginning on Good Friday.
This year, we hope that many people will pray the Novena, either on their own or with their families for change to come about in the world, with more and more turning away from evil and instead turning to God, by repenting and seeking His Mercy for our sins and the sins of the whole world.
Novena leaflets are available in the Church porches.
Jesus revealed to St Faustina, the extraordinary grace on the Feast of Divine Mercy of complete forgiveness of sins, for those who go the Confession and receive Holy Communion. (subject to conditions)
Divine Mercy devotion is held in St. Mary’s Church each Wednesday after 10am Mass (unless there is a funeral)

On Saturdays from the conclusion of the 10am Mass to 11.30am – funerals permitting.

Divine Mercy Devotion:

This devotion, revealed to St Faustina by Our Lord is a prayer of atonement for our own sins and the sins of the whole world. We pray especially for evil to be defeated and for peace in the world.

Church of Divine Mercy -Lucan South – Balgaddy
All are invited to come and especially on Divine Mercy Sunday as Jesus told St. Faustina that “On that day the very depths of My tender mercy are open. I pour out a whole ocean of graces upon those souls who approach the fount of My mercy. The soul that will go to Confession and receive Holy Communion shall obtain complete forgiveness of sins and punishment. On that day are open all the divine floodgates through which graces flow. Let no soul fear to draw near to Me, even though its sins be as scarlet. My mercy is so great that no mind, be it of man or of angel, will be able to fathom it throughout all eternity. Everything that exits has come forth from the very depths of My most tender mercy.” (Diary 139) A wonderful blessing from the Lord.
