Mission Statement
Our mission as brothers and sisters of one Father in Christ, is to announce through the power of the Holy Spirit, the mercy of God to all people and by our presence to help parishes be more conscious of this mystery, all under the protection of Mary the Mother of Mercy. Our lives are rooted in the Eucharist and Sacrament of Reconciliation and in this belonging we are faithful to the Holy Father.
In a spirit of restoration, the Centre exists to proclaim the message of mercy, to promote and help nurture parish life through the creation of small Christian communities (Cenacles), and to give thanks to God for the gift of His priests to the Church. This work is accomplished, in part, under the guidance of the Eucharistic Apostles of the Divine Mercy [EADM] in Stockbridge Mass., USA whose mission is:
1) To proclaim the truth of the Real Presence of Jesus in the Eucharist;
2) To bring the message of mercy and devotion to a hurting world;
3) To form small faith groups called cenacles:
a. To pray for priests and vocations to the priesthood;
b. To pray and work for the end to the scourge of abortion in the world;
c. To experience the beauty and splendour of the Catholic faith through the study of Scripture, the Catechism of the Church and diary of St. Faustina.
4) To exercise our faith through spiritual and corporal works of mercy.

"And if at times he, (modern man), lacks the courage to utter the word mercy or if in his conscience empty of religious content, he does not find the equivalent, so much greater is the need for the Church to utter this word, not only in her own name but also in the name of all the men and women of our time." (Dives in Misericordia, 15)
