Thank you Deacon for your post. Yet I don’t think that this thread is about the Chaplet of Divine Mercy, is it?**Let us say the chaplet correctly **
I am on the official Cenacle of Divine Mercy for my Archdiocese as one of three spiritual directors for the Cenacle, and for those joining, we also have them go through the formation manuals on what to do. The correct form of the Chaplet of Divine Mercy is as follows…
1 Sign of the Cross
2. Opening Prayer
.
Leader - You expired Jesus, People - but the source of life gushed forth for souls, and the ocean of mercy opened up for the whole world. O Fountain of Life, unfathomable Divine Mercy, envelop the whole world and empty yourslef out upon us.
O Blood and Water, which gushed forth from the heart of Jesus as a fountain of mercy for us, I trust in you.
**
3. OurFather…
Hail Mary…
Apostle’s Creed.**
4. Then for each decade starting on the Our Father bead of the rosary…
Leader - Eternal Father, I offer you the body and blood, soul and divinity of yur dearly beloved Son, our Lord Jesus Christ. Perple: In atonement for our sins and those of the whole world. …
**5. On each Hail Mary bead: ** L- For the sake of his sorrowful passion…P - have mercy on us and on the whole world.
Do this for all five decades.
**6. Doxology: (repeat 3 times) ** Holy God, Holy Mighty One, Holy Immortal One, have mercy on us and on the whole world.
7. Closing Prayer: L- Eternal God, in whom mercy is endless…P- and the treasury of compassion inexhaustible, look kindly upon us, and increase your Mer y in us, that in difficult moments, we might not despair, nor become despondent, but with great confidence, submit ourselves to your Holy wWill which is Love and Mercy itself. Amen.
I will now start the first prayer on the Our Father bead.
- L- Sacred and Merciful Heart of Jesus… P- I trust in you (X-3)
Amen
Eternal Father, I offer you, the body and blood, soul snd divinity of your dearly beloved son, our Lord Jesus Christ, in atonement for our sins and those of the whole world.
(now followed by 10 - For the sake of his sorrowful passion…)
