The Servants of Jesus of The Divine Mercy is a Private Association of the Christian Faithful. We are a lay ministry of the Catholic Church founded by Catherine M. Lanni and established by Cardinal Adam Maida on Easter Sunday, 2003. The Divine Mercy Center, which came into existence March, 2006, is an established place of prayer and works of mercy, both corporal and spiritual, run by the laity.
The Divine Mercy Center strives to be a place of peaceful refuge and healing empowered by the Holy Spirit. The lay faithful come together as a spiritual family to welcome all our brothers and sisters in Christ through volunteering, ministering, participating in events, and donating to ministry needs. Recognizing the merciful love and blessings we have received from God, we come forth to be an extension of Jesus, The Divine Mercy, to all whom we encounter. “One by one and every one counts.” The Divine Mercy Center reaches out to the community through the following ministries and programs: Prayer Ministry; Music Ministry; Daily Lunch Ministry; Holy Mass and Confessions on Wednesdays; First Saturday Mass and Devotions; First Friday Mass and Devotions; Prayer Ministry Formation and Training; Prolife Ministry & Events; Private and Public Retreats and Conferences; Youth and Young-Adult Outreach; Special Feast Days and Mission-Centered Events; Prayer Support to the Priesthood, Consecrated, and Religious Life; Prayer Blanket Ministry: handmade and given at hospital and prayer visits; Weekly food donations to the Capuchin Fathers and those in need from the free Panera we receive.
