The sisters liked her but did not appreciate or understand her deep interior life, which included visions and prophecies. On February 22, 1931, Sister Faustina experienced a new and life-changing vision of Christ. She saw him wearing a white robe and raising his right hand in blessing with his left hand resting on his heart from which flowed two rays of light. Jesus told her, “Paint an image according to the pattern you see, with the prayer, Jesus, I trust in you.” Faustina could not paint, and struggled to convince her incredulous sisters about the truth of her vision. Ultimately she persuaded her spiritual director, Father Michael Sopocko, that the vision was real. He found an artist to create the painting that was named The Divine Mercy and shown to the world for the first time on April 28, 1935. Father Sopocko advised Sister Faustina to record her visions in a diary. At one point she wrote that “Jesus said I was his secretary and an apostle of his divine mercy.” She devoted the rest of her life to spreading the message of divine mercy and the growth of popular devotion to it. Her mystical writings have been translated into many languages. She died of tuberculosis at age 33. Pope John Paul II canonized her on April 30, 2000. Jesus said later to Sister Faustina: "Say unceasingly this chaplet that I have taught you. Whoever will recite it will receive great Mercy at the hour of death. Priests will recommend it to sinners as their last hope of salvation. Even if there were a sinner most hardened, if he were to recite this Chaplet only once, he would receive grace from My Infinite Mercy. (Diary 687) SUNDAY OF DIVINE MERCY

Saint Faustina Kowalska: Apostle of Divine

Mercy

The story of Saint Faustina

Kowalska reveals the inspiration

behind the Divine Mercy devotion.

Helena Kowalska was born in

Poland on August 25, 1905. She was

the third child of a devout Catholic

family. As a small child she reported

seeing bright lights during her night

prayers. At age 16 she went to work

as a servant in a neighboring city.

She soon resigned after a fainting

spell, even though a doctor said she

was healthy.

Helena told her parents that she

wanted to enter religious life but

failed to obtain her father’s

permission because he felt she was

too young. She took another post as

a servant and made friends with a

circle of young women. At a dance, she experienced a

vision of Christ suffering that touched her conscience and

revived her desire to be a nun. She soon left her job and

sought entrance in a religious congregation.

Pss III

In 1925, she entered the Congregation of the Sisters of

Our Lady of Mercy, taking the name Faustina. She served

as a cook, gardener and doorkeeper in Krakow and several

other community convents. The sisters

liked her but did not appreciate or

understand her deep interior life,

which included visions and prophecies.

On February 22, 1931, Sister Faustina

experienced a new and life-changing

vision of Christ. She saw him wearing

a white robe and raising his right hand

in blessing with his left hand resting on

his heart from which flowed two rays

of light. Jesus told her, “Paint an image

according to the pattern you see, with

the prayer, Jesus, I trust in you.”

Faustina could not paint, and struggled

to convince her incredulous sisters

about the truth of her vision.

Ultimately she persuaded her spiritual

director, Father Michael Sopocko, that

the vision was real. He found an artist to create the

painting that was named The Divine Mercy and shown to

the world for the first time on April 28, 1935.

Father Sopocko advised Sister Faustina to record her

visions in a diary. At one point she wrote that “Jesus said I

was his secretary and an apostle of his divine mercy.” She

devoted the rest of her life to spreading the message of

divine mercy and the growth of popular devotion to it. Her

mystical writings have been translated into many

languages. She died of tuberculosis at age 33. Pope John

Paul II canonized her on April 30, 2000.

Jesus said later to Sister Faustina:

"Say unceasingly this chaplet that I have taught you.

Whoever will recite it will receive great Mercy at the hour

of death. Priests will recommend it to sinners as their last

hope of salvation. Even if there were a sinner most

hardened, if he were to recite this Chaplet only once, he

would receive grace from My Infinite Mercy.
