St. Mary’s Naas are bringing Divine Mercy to their school. They have 15 Mercy Leaders (students) who lead the Mercy Leader Faith Development team. This team co-ordinates a weekly school prayer group, assists in school liturgies etc. They encourage the recitation of the Divine Mercy chaplet and are displaying new images of the Divine Mercy around the school. Last year the focus was on Our Lady and miraculous medals were offered to each pupil. This year, rosary beads, blessed by Fr. Liam at their Mercy Day Mass, were distributed to students.
