Elders, servants hold recollection

Friends of the Divine Mercy elders and servants held a one-day recollection last January 14 at the Sanctuary, Pasay City in preparation for more enhanced ministry work this year.

The leaders of the community were given insights and encouragement through talks of Dom Pachomius, a Benedictine monk from the Monastery of Transfiguration in Bukidnon and a friend of the community, on spiritual maturity, the hazards of giving, and ways to make the ministry vibrant.

The community plans to build more Divine Mercy on the Block (DMOB), the flagship program that involves the weekly enthronement of the Divine Mercy image in households and offices, clusters nationwide; increase the community's membership base, strengthen existing ministries, expand presence in the Internet, as well as offer more outreach activities in the goal of spreading the corporal and spiritual acts of mercy.
