This afternoon, following the completion of our Divine Mercy Novena, my children enjoyed decorating cookies.
We just used some soft molasses cookies I had in the cupboard, trimming them into the shape of a heart with kitchen scissors, though any heart shaped cookie would work. Then we simply added red and white cookie icing to represent the rays of blood and water that flowed from Jesus' pierced heart.
Happy Divine Mercy Sunday!
