Divine Mercy is a Catholic devotion associated with the reported apparitions of Jesus to St. Faustina Kowalska. The venerated image under this title represents God’s loving mercy towards all people, especially sinners. The message of Divine Mercy is that God loves us, wants us to recognize His mercy, and share it with others. The Divine Mercy Chaplet is a prayer invoking the Father’s mercy. The devotion was promulgated by St. Faustina Kowalska and later by Pope St. John Paul II. Divine Mercy is when God’s love meets us in our suffering and sin.
