This year marks the twenty-fifth anniversary of the establishment of Divine Mercy Sunday by St. John Paul II. This devotion has grown in popularity over that time; I have even made the simple version of the Divine Mercy Chaplet part of my prayer life. This article gives an excellent overview on many aspects of it.
We come upon the start of the Divine Mercy Novina today. There are nine special intention connected to the recitation of the Chaplet from Good Friday until Divine Mercy Sunday; each focused on the the souls of a certain group of people. A plenary indulgence is granted on that day (subject to the usual conditions) for reciting the Chaplet under special conditions.
This is my reminder to being the novena.
My hope is you can take advantage of the indulgence as well.
"Jesus, I trust in You!"
