What Is 33 Days to Divine Mercy About?

Do you need a fresh start? 

Are you ready for a new beginning? 

Our God is a God of second chances and fresh starts.

33 Days to Divine Mercy is a spiritual pilgrimage, an inspiring journey, a new beginning. 

It begins by exploring the significance of mercy, both culturally and personally, to discover the transformative power it holds to heal our brokenness.

Jesus is the ultimate new beginning. Divine Mercy is the ultimate second chance. Jesus invites us to leave behind the old and step into the new. 

This is not merely a call to change our circumstances but to transform our hearts, our minds, and our souls.

What is Jesus inviting you to leave behind? Too often, we allow the weight of our past mistakes to prevent us from living the life God is calling us to live today. It’s easy to get stuck in repetitive thought cycles that focus on our past mistakes and the guilt, shame, and regret they gave birth to. Divine Mercy wants to liberate you from these obsessive thoughts about your past. You are not the worst thing you have done, and Divine Mercy is greater than every poor choice you have ever made.

New beginnings are full of hope and possibilities.

Life is a pilgrimage. It is a sacred journey toward our eternal home with God. Learn what it means to be a Pilgrim of Mercy in a world that is constantly trying to reduce you to a tourist and consumer. Journey to the heart of Divine Mercy with Mother Teresa, John Paul II, Augustine, Monica, John Vianney, Sister Faustina, Katharine Drexel, Damien of Molokai, and Vincent de Paul. 

Without mercy there can be no forgiveness, with-out forgiveness there can be no healing, and with-out healing there can be no lasting peace. Divine Mercy is the spiritual air we breathe. It is the bridge between this world and the next.

33 Days to Divine Mercy will take you on an adventure of life-changing proportions. Embrace this experience and it will forever change the way you think about your past, your present, and your future.

What is the Catholic Church’s official teaching on the Real Presence of Jesus in the Eucharist?

As the United States Conference of Catholic Bishops states, “The whole Christ is truly present, body, blood, soul, and divinity, under the appearances of bread and wine—the glorified Christ who rose from the dead after dying for our sins. This is what the Church means when she speaks of the "Real Presence" of Christ in the Eucharist.”

What is Consecration?

Consecration is to devote yourself to God and make yourself 100 percent available to carry out His will on this earth. It is an act of unconditional surrender to God. Through the act of consecration, we dedicate ourselves abundantly, wholeheartedly, and completely to the will of God, surrender our distractions and selfishness, and promise to faithfully respond to God’s grace in our lives.


In the Book of Exodus, after the incident with the golden calf, Moses realized that the people had lost their way, and so he called them together and said, “Consecrate yourselves today to the Lord...that He may bestow upon you a blessing this day.” (Exodus 32:29)


In the First Book of Chronicles, after God chose his son Solomon to lead, David gave everything he had over to God and the people of Israel. And then he asked, “Who else among you will contribute generously and consecrate themselves to the Lord this day?” (1 Chronicles 29:5)


In the Book of Joshua, God’s chosen people entered the Promised Land after wandering in the desert for forty years. Joshua asked the priests to carry the Ark of the Covenant before the people and said, “Consecrate yourselves to the Lord, for tomorrow He will do wonders among you.” (Joshua 3:5) For the Jewish people, the Ark of the Covenant was God’s dwelling place on earth, God’s presence among them.


The Eucharist is God dwelling among us. And so, today I say to you, with Moses, David, and Joshua: 


“Consecrate yourselves today to the Lord . . . that He may bestow upon you a blessing this day.”


“Who else among you will contribute generously and consecrate themselves to the Lord this day?”


“Consecrate yourselves to the Lord, for tomorrow He will do wonders among you.”


33 Days to Eucharistic Glory is the first ever guide to Eucharistic Consecration. Catholics have consecrated themselves to the Immaculate Heart of Mary, to the Sacred Heart of Jesus, to Saint Joseph, Saint Raphael, Saint Michael the Archangel, Saint Anne, the Holy Spirit, the Miraculous Medal, Our Lady of Guadalupe, the Mediatrix of All Grace, Our Lady of Fatima, Our Lady of Lourdes, Our Lady of Czestochowa, Our Lady of Mount Carmel, Our Lady of Sorrows, and to the Holy Trinity. 

I believe it is time we consecrated ourselves to Jesus in the Eucharist—it is time for a Eucharistic Consecration.
