  10. My 58 yo sister was on remission for 16 yrs from her breast Ca. Her Ca came back with mets to her lymph node, both lungs & bones. The whole big family were all devastated! She requested that we all pray to the Devine Mercy. The prayerful & not prayerful did what she requested! We all prayed the Devine Mercy Novena @ 3am & 3 pm & whenever we are free. She herself is very religious! She refused to go for chemo! With the Devine Mercy intervention, she was led to the right person to give her alternative medicines. A month after her diagnosis, we saw big improvement on her condition, confirmed by her bld test. Tumor markers levels are going down. Almost 4 mos after she found out about her Ca, her tumor markers are almost back to normal!
    As if getting diagnosed with Ca is not enough blow to the the family. A month after she was diagnosed, her husband was rushed to the hospital for chest pain. He had an angiogram, and angioplasty was performed successfully! We thank our Almighty God for his healing hands, & with his Devine Mercy, everything is almost back to normal. Prayer, Prayer, Prayer, is Powerful!

  11. My response came from the St Joseph Pray Novena Feb into March.

    I am over 62 years old, and I need to seek employment in the Australian state XXX…. I had to leave my family home and area and move back to the city to seek employment. This sadden me as I had to leave my family behind caring for the home.
    I said the novena to seek employment for the 9 days. On the 9th day at about lunch time, I received a phone call and offer of casual work that is 15 hour week job. This was such a relief and I was able to send money home to my family members. I have now accepted the role after successfully completing my trial period of 6 weeks, = The job is not permanent, although now I pray that over time the boss will see my quality work effort and in time up grade my employment to a more stable status as I will have to work well into my 70’s as mature citizen.

  12. I have been praying this novena about an issue & on Divine Mercy Sunday, God revealed the truth to me. It may not have been what I wanted to hear but am now able to see things in a clearer perspective. Let’s me open to God’s answers, however hard or unpleasant

  13. My son came home from college after a very rough period of severe depression and substance abuse. He seems to be doing much better. Taking 2 college classes and working 2 part time jobs. Thank you for your support and prayers.

  14. Please pray my family is healed and reunited forever. Thank you for keeping all of us in your prayers. I am praying for world peace every level.

  15. All praise and glory to God for his divine mercy.Prayers are being answered,our finances look better, got a job and so many things coming through for us! Each novena is special and I pray for all of us who follow these novenas, they are so powerful! Amen!

  16. I prayed the novena for my friend, Joanne. She did not recover from her cancer and is now in hospice ready to make her way home to the Lord. I am grateful that she is at peace and will not have to suffer much longer.

  24. While I too have not yet had my prayers answered, I felt a sense of peace and greater understanding of the Lord’s Mercy.

  32. Dear John-Paul and Annie I have been praying all of the novenas
    you are sending thru my email for many years, it was my daughter who subscribed for me. In fact all of the novenas are filed in a separate folder in my computer.
    For the past two years I have been praying for my son to have a good job overseas, its all Gods plan, he left our country last month and now employed in a big company. Thanks for all the prayers.
    Will send a small token when my son’s job will be stable.

  43. I prayed the divine mercy novena asking Jesus to bring my husband closer to Jesus.
    My husband attended the divine mercy feast day mass with me.
    Divine mercy have helped me in my difficult and stressful time.
    I tust in Jesus

  44. During the novena, I felt the strong call to go to confession. I had been poorly catechized growing up, and as an adult, I had confessed sins starting from the time of my conversion, but not from early in my life. I went to a Divine Mercy celebration on DM Sunday and was able to go to Reconcilliation and confess all of the sins of my past. It was such a beautiful experience, and I was amazed at God’s mercy and presence in this sacrament. At the start of the novena, I hadn’t had the intention of going to confession, but I was truly led to that by the Holy Spirit!

  45. God has always been merciful to us.
    My husband had started smoking two and half years back. And was not willingly gn to give up. And was not in prayers. But after the prayers he has changed by the grace of my merciful God. He quit smoking. And has surrendered himself to our lord and prays so much now. Praise god for His mercy and love

  46. My parents marriage and our family that was under attack due to infidelity and negative influence has been restored after this novena. My other requests of martial settlement and PR are not yet answered but I know that GOD is faithful and He will make it happen very soon.
    Looking forward to the next novena to Our Lady, Undoer of Knots.

  47. I have been praying Novenas for the past year for my daughter, Julia. After the Divine Mercy Novena, two very important and exciting prayers were answered. I know at times we think God isn’t really hearing us…oh, but contraire!! It truly had to be in HIS timing…because if the prayers had been answered a year ago, the outcome would not have been the amazing outcomes they were! I prayed for a raise for her…and she received an AMAZING raise at the end of March. If it had been any sooner, it would NOT have been what she finally received. And she just bought a home…in a perfect location and for a good price. All in HIS timing! For those who think God isn’t hearing you – never, ever doubt it. He is.

  48. The prayers I have lifted up in each Novena are (while there is still time)
    1) that my son and husband both
    return to Church .
    2) that my teenaged granddaughter acknowledges God.
    3) To my dismay, her mother,
    my daughter in law, is not a believer …
    so it is a work in progress.
    Would you help me, please?
    Thank you!

  49. On the day of Divine Mercy Sunday we purchased our new home that we had been looking, praying and in desperate need of for over a year. It has been a very difficult time being displaced with nowhere for my family to be able to gather together for holidays or special events or to just come together for a meal together. I must say it has been a mother’s nightmare not being able to have a home to gather her family and friends. But now we live the meaning of Easter, new beginnings. Praise Jesus!!
    God bless each of you.

  50. my petitions to Divine Mercy are yet be answered. Ihave strong conviction that God will provide solutions to those needs when the time comes. God’s time is the best.

  51. Honestly speaking though I wasn’t much serious while saying this novena & missed in between due to my work schedules but I was asking God for his help over some problems where I couldn’t find a humanly solution. Much to my surprise I could see God’s hand working in our life as if he is easing our pains. Even he is assuring that he is with us in this difficult time sometimes by performing some miracles & sometimes by increasing our faith. Thank you Jesus for your reassurance. Me & my husband were praying for a house from last few months but due to many obstacles the process ( of buying ) was getting delayed but in last two weeks…. things are moving forward automatically & the obstacles we were facing are being removed as we pray.

  52. I have been praying to divine mercy for the last 2 years.
    Jesus has been helping me through my worries and difficult times.
    I trust in him.

  53. Please pray for my best friend’s brother who was recently diagnosed with inoperable cancer. These two brothers have already lost their youngest brother to lung cancer 10 years ago. Their mother is 93 years old and this will be so hard on her. My best friend is angry and scared, please pray for them all. I will also pray for everyone in need of God’s love, mercy, peace, love, and compassion.

  54. I praise God for being the pillar that held my life. About a week after the feast of Divine Mercy, I felt unwell and went to the hospital. After medical examination, it was found that my electrolyte level was very low.

    The doctor who viewed the test result said I was supposed to be in a critical health condition or have a heart failure, and days later, a second doctor who saw me said same thing.

    I knew that God preserved my life until I got medical attention. To God be all the glory!

  55. All Glory to God my master,
    With the novena prayers, I have been praying for my daughter to be gainfully employed.
    Praise Jesus, my daughter who is graduating in May just got a great job offer .
    I give the Holy Trinity all the Glory

  56. Please for the next novena pray for my daughter Katie who is again fighting stage 4 brain cancer she is going threw radiation and chemo now she is 25 and NICU nurse . Thank you

  57. I look forward to praying these novena’s with you all. Sometimes I pray the novena for the intentions of the group and not my own and that gives me a sense of peace because I know that someone else is also praying for my special needs..
    I feel more drawn to God and I am able to share God’s love more frequently now than I could before.
    Thank you so much for adding me to this amazing prayer group. I feel truly blessed by all the graces and blessings that I’ve received.

  58. Divine mercy prayer opened doors of success n hope to me n my family. I blv n i knw all my heart desires re to stay in my life.

  59. My husband has dementia and it has started to decline. Even though there is a lot of confusion in his mind, he always tells me that he will not keep me from going to church. Most mornings when I go through my emails and I come across the Novenas we pray together. He has not forgotten his prayers and has a great devostion to Mother Mary. He always talk about the time he asked Mary to heal his pain after a ruptured appendix. This was many years ago. To this day he never has any pain and never hurts. To me this is a sign of answers prayers. My prayer now is that his mind, as it deteriorates will be calm and still lingering in his love for Mother Mary. It appears that his mind is deterioration more rapidly now but there has been no aggression associated with it. Thank be to God I can still care for him at this time.

  60. My son-in-laws business was failing. I prayed the novena’s, he closed his business and now has a good job! So thankful!

  61. During an after the novena, I have been graced by an immense feeling of serenity in my family and work life. Jesus, I trust in you!

  62. My sons got promotions. My daughter got a job in her field. God helped us get to a special doctor to prevent the onset of another serious illness. God is kind and merciful. Thank you Jesus.

  63. I had been praying for my son who lost his job but has now found a new job starting end of this month.. thank you God. But he owes so much debts and I am wondering how he is going to pay them.. please continue to guide and bless him.. thank you Jesus.

  64. I have been struggling with the demise of a relationship for 2 years and have prayed continuously for the “ghost” of this individual to leave me. After completing the novena, with confession on that day, I am no longer consumed with thoughts of the past. I finally feel able to move on. I thank the Lord also for the individual that introduced me to the chaplet.

  65. Although my prayers and petitions not yet answered, in praying the Novena and staying in prayer, I have received that peace and joy of Christ, believing and trusting in his mercy that he will grant me my petitions soon, esp for helping me find a good job soon and there will be peace in our family with our brother to return to our family house. Divine Mercy, I place my trust in thee.

  66. My sister was diagnosed last September with TNBC, (Triple Negative Breast Cancer), the most aggressive and and invasive breast cancer. Chemo has been ongoing and a double mastectomy was scheduled on May 23, what would have been our dad’s 100th birthday. We lost our mom to this Cancer in 1996. This text was just received…

    “Siblings & sibling spouses:
    Hear ye, hear he – I share tidings of good news. Shane & I found out last night the tumors are GONE! As a result, they are not performing the mastectomy & I am scheduled for a lumpectomy 5/30. That will follow with 7 weeks of radiation (5x week) & Chemo every three weeks thru 1/19. There is more to share but for now that is the gist of it.”

  67. Two of my grandchildren were finally baptized (at ages 7&8) and will make their first communion soon. My son was able to interview and received a job offer after many years of struggling with severe panic attacks. Thank you, Lord!!

  68. I prayed the novena and have not had my prayers answered yet, and wait for our Lord to hear my prayers, l long to see my daughters filled with peace and happiness all she wants is to find good friends and a good Godfearing man, she is a beautiful,loving, Young woman.

    I want to share my first answered prayer on DMS. As I went to confession after a long blessed line, a priest told me, as I was the LAST in line, he told me that I hv answered his prayer for confessing my life’s sins from childhood to that day of my adulthood. No one else confessed their life’s sins. I didn’t know that until he shared that with me. And to me, and for me God is good. Jesus, I Trust in You

    After confusion of not knowing what to study at sixth form and what profession to pursue. I prayed about this during the divine mercy Novena for God’s guidance. My daughter came to me before the Novena ended and said “Mummy I want to go in the medical field ” I thank God for an answered prayer.

    I gave an offertory at Church and told God I wanted him to bless the seed that I have planted. I received a hundred fold money free of charge in return for something that I needed to do desperately.
