KOTA KINABALU – Over a thousand people from all walks of life attended the Divine Mercy Seminar at the Sacred Heart Parish Centre here on 21-22 Nov 2015.  Many of these participants came from outside the Kota Kinabalu Archdiocese.  The seminar, conducted in Bahasa Melayu, was in preparation for the Jubilee Year of Mercy.  Prior to this, registration was held at the church entrance before and after the BM Mass on 8 and 15 November.  It was organised by the parish Divine Mercy Apostolate.  The seminar touched on the history of the devotion and its message, life of St Faustina, the chaplet, and others pertinent to it.  The participants also went through the experience itself.  The devotion is conducted in English on Saturdays, in Chinese before the 7 am Mass on Sundays.
