St. Elizabeth Church in Wilmington and
 St. Margaret of Scotland in Glasgow to begin the process. The sessions, according to the diocese, are “a time of prayerful reflection and sharing” among members of different parishes selected by the pastors. Pictured below is the group of representatives from St. Hedwig Parish. Also pictured is our assistant pastor, Father

because of the Cornonavirus Pandemic.
           
 


DIVINE MERCY 

At three o'clock, implore My mercy, especially for sinners; and, if only for a brief moment, immerse yourself in My Passion, particularly in My abandonment at the moment of agony. This is the hour of great mercy. In this hour, I will refuse nothing to the soul that makes a request of Me in virtue of
My Passion (St. Faustina Diary, 1320).


Jesus, I trust in you!          Jezu, ufam Tobie!       Jesús, en Ti confío!
