This Holy Thursday, 17^th April 2014, I was intent on spending one hour in adoration instead of the hurried minutes I had spent in all the previous years. The ambience after mass was perfect when the lights were dimmed in the Church of Divine Mercy, Penang and the solemn voice of our parish priest, Father Martin came through, inviting all present to spend one hour with the Lord.

I didn’t really know what to do or say so I started with praise and thanksgiving for all the blessings I had receive… Read more

I was a sinner and God in His Mercy called me to accept Jesus Christ as my saviour. After accepting Him in the year 1994, I became the beloved Child of God. God is always with me. When I need help I call on to Him and many, many of my prayers have been answered. Even though aches and pains and the misery of the world come my way, I always experience joy when I receive Jesus in Holy Communion. Holy Mass is healing and I love to go for mass. I would encourage everyone to go to daily mass and … Read more

Dear Mother of Perpetual Help,

I believe I have already thanked you in my heart a long time ago when your powerful intercession to Jesus allowed my eldest sister an extension of life here on earth.

Nevertheless, I felt that I should write out this letter of thanksgiving which seems long overdue and place it at your shrine to give testimony to your love and perpetual care for all who turn to you for help.

I can never thank you enough for powerfully interceding to God for my eldest siste… Read more

On February 22nd 2015 some 20 pilgrims led by Fr. Martin headed to Poland to collect the 1st class relic of St Faustina. While there, they went on a week-long pilgrimage that included the birthplace of St John Paul II and also the concentration camp in Auschwitz among other Holy monuments and shrines.

Below are some of the reflections and testimonies from the group.

It was an AWESOME experience to stand on holy ground where the saints physically lived and gave their lives completely for … Read more

My dear brothers & sisters in Christ,

My ordeal began with a sudden sharp pain on my left wrist as I was taking out my purse in September 2002. The slightest movement just made it worse and I couldn’t sleep at night despite taking pain killers.

The orthopaedic specialist at first diagnosed tendonitis and prescribed medicine and physiotherapy. He later said that it was a degenerative disease but the MRI finding showed a traumatic cause (even though I did not fall or injure myself). As the … Read more

I should have shared this testimony a few years back. I am not good with expressing myself, so I put it off until now. Moreover, the theme for this year’s (2015) Divine Mercy feast is Tried, Transformed, now Testify, so I have already shared my experience with my BEC.

6 years ago we sold our house in Paya Terubong and went house hunting. It must be Our Lord of Divine Mercy who led us to buy our current residence in Sungai Ara. The church was nearing completion at that time. After its opening… Read more

I have been married to my wife Daina Sulimin for more than 18 years (she’s a Catholic from Sabah). Never in my wildest dreams did I ever think that I will be accepting Christ & giving my testimony. In fact, I’m a stubborn husband and a staunch Buddhist. I have once told her sarcastically that, “I want to marry you, but not your religion”. I’m not sure how many men dare to say this to your future wife! Please don’t ahhh! ”. She should have asked me to read (1 Corinthians 7: 1-40; About Marriage).… Read more

When I prayed for my son who was studying for the priesthood in the seminary, the Lord heard and answered my prayers.

In 2005, my son gave me the Divine Mercy prayer book and requested me to say this prayer daily at 3:00 p.m. I prayed daily in the morning & evening but I did not say the Prayer of Divine Mercy.

Then, in 2007, when my son was pursuing his studies for the priesthood in the Singapore seminary, he asked for my prayers again. As per his request, from that day onwards, I start… Read more

I don’t feel like going to the healing mass initially after a long day at work. The thought getting stronger when I saw Grab fare hikes was high. It was double the price that I usually grab to church. However, I still had to go because I have promised someone that I’ll be there! Healing mass started with praise and worship. The woman sitting next to me caught my attention. She was hopping and clapping with joy throughout the praise and worship. My heart sank for a while. I almost can’t re… Read more

Both incidences happened 20 years ago

1) At my work place

Part of my duties was to confirm and verify the chemical that the production line is using. An operator uses an electrical pump to pump the acid from a 200 gallon drum to a big storage tank. One day, during the process of transporting the acid, the pump hose somehow wasn’t locked properly. Acid burst out from the dislodged pump and it sprayed directly on to my wrist and down the lower part of my body.

Somehow, I didn’t panic. I sto… Read more
