Saint Faustina Kowalska was a Polish nun of the Congregation of the Sisters of Our Lady of Mercy. Born Helena Kowalska in 1905, she received visions of Jesus in which He asked her to spread devotion to His Divine Mercy. Her diary records these revelations and has become a spiritual classic. The Divine Mercy devotion she promoted is now practiced worldwide.
