This is the first year of saying the Divine Mercy Chaplet/Novena for me so I had to do some research. Information about St. Faustina also on the EWTN link.

It's my first year saying it too! This is the first time I am praying the Novena from Good Friday until Easter Saturday, and celebrating the Feast of Divine Mercy. Because of Siobhan, and some divine intervention, I started praying the Chaplet right after I saw the canonization Mass of St. Juan Diego on EWTN. It took me a very short time to memorize it. The Divine Mercy devotion literally saved my prayer life, and it reinvigorated my spirital and moral lives. I thank God for having mercy on me, though I definitely do not deserve it, for my sins are many. But through His Mercy, and His Holy Sacraments, I have been "born again."

I'm glad someone bumped this thread up today. I forgot to post the First Day of the Novena yesterday. I have been busy over the past 2 days. Since my graduaion from the University of Delaware in January, I have been unemployed. But I found a job, thanks to the intercession of the Holy Family: Jesus, Mary, and Joseph! I was called on Wednesday about a paid internship at the Heritage Foundation, that I had not applied to, but they had my resume because I had sent it to their Job Bank, traveled down to DC on Thursday for the interview, and found out after I came home from the Good Friday Liturgy yesterday afternoon that I had been hired! I was ecstatic, and I am still excited. I can't wait to start. I thought I should tell all my brothers and sisters on the religion forum on FR about it, because I know people here have been praying for me. Thank you all for your kindness and your spiritality.

Have a Happy Easter everyone! Rejoice, for He is Risen!
