HOW TO PRAY THE DIVINE MERCY CHAPLET
The Chaplet of Divine Mercy is prayed using Rosary beads and can be spoken or sung. Given to St. Faustina in 1935 during one of her visions, it is a powerful intercessory prayer that unites our intentions to the Passion of Jesus and the offering of the Eucharist at Mass.
