St. Faustina: The Divine Mercy Saint

Today is the feast day of St. Faustina; a Polish Nun and Mystic who had numerous revelations from Jesus about leading souls to learn about His Divine Mercy. Today, Jesus’ messages to Faustina are as relevant as ever. The Marian Fathers of The Immaculate Conception in Stockbridge, Mass continue to promote this same message and mission of Divine Mercy.
