Local Cenacle Prayer Teams
The primary ‘call’ of DWF Cenacle Prayer Teams is to return to the order, to the place and to the purpose for which we were created by God by LIVING in Divine Will and by sharing in the Love of God through prayer, intercession, unity and surrender in His Divine Will.
The Cenacle Prayer Teams consist of Local Cenacles meeting in small local groups in prayer for the restoration and sanctification of the Church and the nation. Each Cenacle is facilitated by a Local Cenacle Leader, who works in harmony with the Area Cenacle Leader who coordinates all the cenacles in the area.
This is why I told you many times that the mission of calling a soul to live in My Will is the greatest one, the highest and the most sublime; there is no other that can match it.
Book of Heaven, Volume 14, August 23, 1922
DWF Local Cenacle Prayer Teams’ members calling is to live and pray in Divine Will, while encouraging each other to know and grow deeper in relationship with God by example of how they are living in God’s Divine Will.
DWF supports Local Cenacle Team members, to love God, family and neighbour by living in Divine Will and praying for all souls ~ past present and future, in every parish, throughout the country and world.
The purpose of the cenacle is that members will meet locally in a community spirit of fulfilling the Lords’ Prayer in bringing about God’s Kingdom on earth.
“Your Kingdom come, Your Will be done on earth as It is in Heaven”.
Matthew 6:10
Local Cenacles can have any number of members from two-upwards. However, it is envisaged that Local Cenacle membership might be between 7 and 10 members. They can meet in person or virtually as suits each group.
It is anticipated by DWF that everyone wishing to live in Divine Will be part of a Local Divine Will community, participating in a Divine Will Family Local Cenacle.
The Local Cenacles are the foundation blocks from which The Divine Will Family Organising Structure rises, which will be made up of all members of Divine Will Family.
“Jesus said to them: ‘Go into all the world and preach the Gospel to all creation” Mark 16:15
For this is what the Lord has commanded us: “I have made you a light for the Gentiles, that you may bring salvation to the ends of the earth.” Acts 13:47
Therefore, this Kingdom exists – there is nothing left but to make It known, so as to let all the goods It contains go out into the field.
Book of Heaven, Volume 20, December 29, 1926
Cenacle members are invited to join Divine Will Family Local Cenacle Prayer Teams. They will be inspired by example of how those, who are living in Divine Will, live their lives in loving God and loving their neighbour.
New members are welcomed into DWF Local Cenacles and introduced to Divine Will way of life gently by Local Cenacle Leaders, and the Local Cenacle Prayer Team in their prayer meetings.
Those who are introduced to these writings and begin to explore them will become aware, very early on, that the writings are indeed Jesus’ teachings as dictated to Luisa throughout the thirty six volumes of the Book of Heaven, The Hours of the Passion of Our Lord Jesus Christ, The Blessed Virgin Mary in the Kingdom of the Divine Will, The Rounds of the Soul in The Divine Will and other writings by Luisa.
One who goes on to study these writings and follow the teachings will receive the greatest gift offered to mankind, The Gift of the Divine Will, which enables them to possess the Will of The Blessed Trinity and live in It as do the inhabitants of Heaven.
Cenacles will be locally based and will be facilitated by Local Cenacle Leaders with the support of the Area Coordinator.
Cenacles may assemble and grow “organically” or be assembled after being organised in an area.
Each Cenacle will have a Leader who will guide and support the members in their prayer and or study activities.
Membership can consist of from two to preferably not more than ten members.
If members are not already systemically studying the volumes or in a zoom teaching class they may join one.
Divine Will Prayer groups and groups doing The Hours of The Passion may be guided by the Local Leader, with the support of the Area Cenacle Leader.
Cenacle Members will register with the LCL, who in turn registers them with the Area Cenacle Leader for entry to the data base system under GDPR compliance.
As membership increases in a Cenacle, a second Cenacle may be established to facilitate new emerging requirements.
All local Cenacles are recommended to meet weekly.
Each Cenacle will choose and decide on a name for their Cenacle, which will usually be related to, and consistent with Divine Will teaching.
All requests for guest speakers and any activity organised, which involves the drawing in of members from other Local Cenacles are coordinated through the Area Cenacle Leader to maintain unity of purpose and avoid unnecessary duplication.
Local Cenacles may be innovative in attracting new members while being discerning in their decision on who to approach. They are advised to avoid indiscriminate distribution of Divine Will material.
Cenacle members will attract new members to Divine Will Family by their example of living in Divine Will.
A Local Cenacle Leader will lead the Local Cenacle. New members will be welcomed into DWF and introduced to different aspects of living in Divine Will.
A Divine Will Prayer Group may use one of the following formats:
• Divine Will way of life • Divine Will intimate relationship and walk with the Lord • Divine Will Prayer Group • Divine Will Hours of the Passion • Divine Will Contemplative Prayer • Divine Will Classes studying the Volumes of the Book of Heaven • DWF Small Study Groups - revising teachings from classes • Living in Divine Will - on earth as It is in Heaven • Studying themes from Divine Will
‘Your task is great, because I have entrusted to you my Divine Will, so that by making It known, you may place Its rights in safety - so very unknown to the human generations. The goods that will come will be immense, and you and I will be twice happy for having worked for the formation of this Kingdom’.”
Volume 19, September 15, 1926
With you, it is not only about living in It, but about forming It, therefore your Jesus must abound very much with you, to give you the raw materials for the formation of a Kingdom so holy… The sacrifices that one who has to form a kingdom must make are not necessary for those who come to the decision of wanting to live in that Kingdom. Therefore, I just want you to work in the formation of the Kingdom of the Supreme Fiat, and your Jesus will take care of all the rest.”
Volume 20, October 2, 1926
Local Cenacles are local by nature and are comprised of members of the locality/parish/community.
The purpose of the cenacle is that members will meet locally in a family/community spirit of fulfilling the Lords’ Prayer and aiming to bring about the restoration of the Catholic Church in Ireland and beyond.
“Your kingdom come, Your Will be done on earth as It is in Heaven."
Matthew 6:10
For this is what the Lord has commanded us: “I have made you a light for the Gentiles, that you may bring salvation to the ends of the earth.”
Acts 13:47
Enlarge the place of your tent; stretch out the curtains of your dwellings, spare not; lengthen your cords and strengthen your pegs.
Isaiah 54:2
The scripture quotation above from Isaiah 54:2 is an inspired message Frances Hogan received from the Holy Spirit at the outset of DWF setting up DWF Local Cenacles in 2021 and encourages us to open our hearts and share our homes by hosting our friends and neighbours in Divine Will Prayer for the salvation of all souls past present and future.
Each Local Cenacle is led by a Local Cenacle Leader to facilitate, lead and coordinate the Divine Will Family locally; to help people come to a deeper meaningful relationship with Jesus in the Crown of Sanctity; and to make Divine Will known and accessible to each and every soul.
Local Cenacle Leaders will participate in ongoing spiritual development and are Commissioned and supported in practical ways by DWF. Local Cenacle Leaders are supported by Area Cenacle Leaders who coordinate each area around the country.
“Come follow Me and I will make you fishers of men. And at once they left their nets and followed Him”
Matthew 4:19

“I love you, but with an immense love; I love you, but with a love that is incomprehensible to you; I love you with a love that will never have limits nor will ever end; I love you with a love that you will never be able to match.”
Luisa’ response to Jesus: ‘My Life, You know that I have nothing, and whatever I do I take from You, and then I leave it in You again, so that my things, remaining in You, may have continuous attitude and life in You, while I remain always in my nothingness.
Therefore I take your love, I make it my own, and I say to You: “I love You with an eternal and immense love; with a love that has no limits and no end, and that is equal to yours”.
