Common card · No. 222587

The Divine Mercy is a Catholic devotion to the mercy of God associated with the reported apparitions of Jesus to Faustina Kowalska. The Divine Mercy devotion is composed of several practices such as the Divine Mercy Sunday, the Chaplet of the Divine Mercy or the Divine Mercy image, which Kowalska describes in her diary as "God's loving mercy" towards all people, especially for sinners. According to Kowalska's writings, this devotion and practices were asked by Jesus Christ himself during his reported apparitions. Kowalska was granted the title "Secretary of Mercy" by the Holy See in the Jubilee Year of 2000.
