This specific issue is not something I've studied or even thought of-- anyone else have some insight to lend on this topic?

Anna-Kate, Who Loved God Late Is the question: should the Chaplet only be said with a priest? If so, I think no it’s fine and good for people to pray this. (NB: not a cleric)

Tim Skywalker I think the question is more 'I know it's okay because it's an approved devotion but how do you get around this potential theological issue?'

Anna-Kate, Who Loved God Late My guess is because it isn’t a sacramental (or maybe sacrificial is a better word choice) offering?

Tim Skywalker Anna-Kate, Who Loved God Late What?

Freddy Rodriguez Anna-Kate, Who Loved God Late Is there anything theologically weird or problematic with a lay person praying the Divine Mercy Chaplet and offering God the Father the Body, Blood, Soul, and Divinity of Jesus Christ for the atonement of sins, or should only a priest be making this offering?

Tim Skywalker Anna-Kate, Who Loved God Late No…

Stop overthinking this stuff. It’s a devotion. Not a full on sacrament-al mass 😂
