Today is Divine Mercy Sunday: the second Sunday of Easter.
There's a devotion to the Divine Mercy in Sauk Centre, where I live, that's into its third decade. The whole community was dedicated to the Divine Mercy in 1982, the year my wife and I married. There's a bit more detail about the local devotion in a Mercy Sunday homily from 2002.
There's a chaplet and a novena associated with the Divine Mercy devotion. (A chaplet is a collection of prayers, a novena is a set of prayers said over a nine-day period.)
And, a great deal more information at:

What's That Doing in a Nice Catholic Blog?
From time to time, a service that I use will display links to - odd - services and retailers.
I block a few of the more obvious dubious advertisers.
For example: psychic anything, numerology, mediums, and related practices are on the no-no list for Catholics. It has to do with the Church's stand on divination. I try to block those ads.
Sometime regrettable advertisements get through, anyway.
Bottom line? What that service displays reflects the local culture's norms, - not Catholic teaching.
