Hour of the Greatest Mercies
"My little ones, I am leading you up a very steep, rocky path. Painful and exhausting. But I am leading you up high, beyond the reaches of the enemy and his works.
He pulls at your every step. He places obstacle after obstacle, terrified that you are more and more out of his grasp.
Do not fear, I am leading you.
Soon I will come to you to strengthen you. The hour of great darkness is also the Hour of the Greatest Mercies.
And as the times are unprecedented in the denial of God, in the multiplication of sin and error, and in the betrayal to My children and to Me; so these times are also unprecedented in Grace and Mercy; in the helps that I give to My children to help them continue on and survive.
My children, look up at ME, fix your gaze, your heart, your thoughts on Me.
Remember that I love you, that you belong to Me, that I will not leave you bereft of My Grace and the helps you need.
They run deep beneath the surface, like an aquifer, invisible on the surface to your eyes, but present and active.
Each act of Faith, of love, of obedience, of humility; each offering up of your pain and frustration, of your not understanding, of your fear; these all deepen and widen this divine reservoir in the depths of your soul.
My beloved ones, do you see how you help Me to quench the terrible thirst of My children who have been left to die in the terrible desert of sin? By allowing yourselves to be filled with My Divine Water, by widening and deepening your souls through Faith, you"feed" these souls that are dying.
It is the hidden Work of the Spirit that is taking place like never before, for the usual channels of Grace are being blocked and polluted, eliminated. The streams of Grace now must run underground, hidden, protected."

MASS RETURNS TO ST. JOSEPH CHAPEL
Now that the high Holy Days have passed, we will return to St. Joseph Chapel for Mass. We expect the new Shade Pro awning to be installed within the next week or two. Being back in the Chapel should make it easier on the Dads who are left to carry all the extra seating for Tepeyac!
Our publication of the Lord's Messages, and the recent decrees from the Archbishop have raised many questions in the minds of people and many are emailing us. So many, in fact, that we are having difficulty responding to all of them. Father John Mary would like to try answer the most frequently asked questions through FAQs on our website, and eventually through a video blog that he hopes to begin. If you have a question you can send it to: questions@mdm.faithUnfortunately, we won't be able to answer all of them, but we will read all of them.
Supporting the Mission: Social Media, Videos and Podcasts
Many people are asking how they can help the Mission as we enter this new time of the Messages. As always, your prayers are the most important!
But another way of helping is by sharing the Lord’s Messages with others. To give the Messages the widest possible audience we are using social media, video streaming and podcasts--yes, we even have a Mission of Divine Mercy podcast site!
And still another way is by leaving positive comments on social media, when you feel you can, in response to comments from those who don't know the Mission at all. We ask you to clear up misconceptions and share the truth peacefully, without engaging in protracted battles. Thank you for your efforts.
These are the current platforms where the Messages, homilies, videos, etc. can be found:
Social Media: Facebook, X, Gab, Truth, Locals and Telegram
Videos: YouTube, Rumble and Vimeo
Audios / Podcasts: Spotify and Apple Podcasts
Jesus, we trust in You.
A NETWORK OF TRUST
"This is what MDM is called to be: a growing communion of trust in His Mercy for our needy world." ~ Fr. John Mary
MDM started encouraging people to pray "Jesus, I trust in You" ten times a day back in 2011. Recently we felt it was important to remind people to turn to Jesus with this simple, powerful prayer in a world that feels more and more out of control. We are suggesting 20 times, but some people find themselves repeating it hundreds of times. It reminds our troubled souls that GOD IS IN CONTROL.
Many of you have put your name on our growing list and have also left a prayer intention or testimony:

Being so sinful, the Lord has had mercy and is guiding me along with his most holy mother by the hand. (Jesús en ti confío )~ Deysi
We are living dark times of evil. But God’s Mercy is infinitely greater. I want to share a message He gave us of great hope in His action in our times.
