Day of Prayer


Above is a picture of the shrine. We were not able to see it yesterday because of all the people.

Today was a much better weather day. cold- no rain- sunny!

We went back to the shrine of the Divine Mercy today. Because there were so many people yesterday we were not able to see everything at the shrine. Its a truly beautiful and peaceful place. We were able to see and go through with detail St. Faustina's life. It was a very prayerful day.

They have a beautiful statue of St. Michael the Archangel.

I prayed for the parish and school family here.

It's a wood building on the convent grounds they use for talks and presentations... very nice and cozy!

All the walls are full of prayer intentions and rosaries.

Except the wall behind me...that's the stage.


















Tomorrow we travel to the city of Wadowice where Karol Wojtyla was born and raised.

Tomorrow promises to be a great day...stay tuned!

    Thank you so much Father!

    You know...? St. Michael the Archangel is precisely one of the patron saints of the Sisters of Our Lady of Mercy (the congregacion of St. Faustina).

    She wrote this in the #667 of her diary: "I have great reverence for Saint Michael the Archangel; he had no example to follow in doing the will of God, and yet he fulfilled God’s will faithfully."

    May he pray for us so that we may be able to do the same.

    Please, say hi to Mother, the sisters and pilgrims for us and keep us in your prayers as we keep you in ours.

  2. This trip is so beautiful, in the pictures of you all, you seem to be blessed as the people show you their shrine and you share it with us here. St. Michael people miss you!! Please say Hi to all the Religious, we are praying for you all for a safe trip and a safe return.
