On 6 July falls the 144th anniversary of the death of Mother Teresa Ewa nee Sułkowska, Countess Potocka, the founder of the Congregation of the Sisters of Our Lady of Mercy in Poland. Is it a small thing to save one soul, she wrote. This idea guided her life and work, which she established to rescue women and girls in need of deep moral renewal (“the Magdalenas”). The Congregation later gave to the Church and the world the trasure that was Sister Faustina, apostle of Divine Mercy who is now recognized as its spiritual co-founder. Mother Teresa Potocka died in the palace of Wilanów. Her mortal remains rest in the tomb of the Congregation at the Powązki cemetery in Warsaw. We do not call her a saint, because only the Church has the right to give that title, said Fr. Zygmunt Golian, her spiritual director, in the funeral speech. However, let our efforts at work, for which he was ready to give her life, prove her sanctity. More information about the life and work of Mother Teresa Potocka can be found here.
From July 4 to 6, the next gathering of members and volunteers of the Association of Apostles of Divine Mercy “Faustinum” from Italy is taking place in Turin under the motto: “In Your mercy is hope.” The event will be attended by Sr. Emanuela Gemza, president of the “Faustinum” association at the Sanctuary of Divine Mercy in Krakow-Łagiewniki, and Sr. Wincenta Mąka from the Roman community of the Congregation of the Sisters of Our Lady of Mercy.
Under this motto, a retreat for women will be held from June 27–29 at the Shrine of Divine Mercy in Kraków-Łagiewniki as part of the series “With Faustina in Everyday Life.” The theme for these spiritual exercises is a quote from the Diary of St. Faustina: “Under His loving gaze, my soul gains strength and power, becomes aware that it loves and is especially loved, and knows that the Almighty defends it” (Diary, 815). The retreat will be led by Sr. Gaudia Skass from the Kraków community of the Congregation of the Sisters of Our Lady of Mercy, who also serves as the spokesperson.

People from many countries of the world participating in the work of the Perpetual Chaplet of Divine Mercy are praying not only in their own intentions, but also asking for “mercy on us and the whole world”.

In 2024, numerous works were carried out at the Sanctuary, including relocating the chapel to the main part of the Church and finishing the vestibule, constructing stairs in front of the Sanctuary on the side of the Old Market, laying granite paving on the courtyard and basalt paving in the tunnel. The tunnel connecting the Old Market with the Sanctuary courtyard was renovated, entrance gates and a tunnel entry gate were installed, and various systems (e.g., access control, fire protection, etc.) were installed and activated. Lighting was installed in the courtyard, doors were purchased and fitted in various parts of the Sanctuary and the new part of St. Faustina’s House, wooden and metal handrails were made and installed, the Sanctuary grounds were fenced, interior finishing works were carried out inside the Sanctuary—walls, ceilings (also in the new part of Sister Faustina’s House)—and exterior works, such as adding plinths and completing plastering. Additionally, glass doors connecting the vestibule with the chapel of the apparition were installed, and a passenger elevator for St. Faustina’s House was commissioned.
Upcoming tasks include finishing and equipping the interior of the Sanctuary, sacristy, and support facilities, such as laying floors and installing benches. Outside the building, landscaping will be done. Moreover, we plan to design and implement a museum project in the Sanctuary’s underground areas and equip the newly constructed part of St. Sister Faustina’s House.
The Shrine of the Divine Mercy in Plock is being erected by the Congregation of the Sisters of Our Lady of Mercy thanks to the donations made for this purpose by devotees of Divine Mercy and people of good will.

Thanks to these gifts, the church is growing and therefore the Sisters would like to ask for further support.

Saint Faustina was a great devotee of Jesus present in the Blessed Sacrament from her early years. It was before Jesus hidden in the white consecrated Host that she first experienced God’s love and internally heard the invitation to a more perfect life. As a young woman, she made a private vow of chastity before the Blessed Sacrament, and later in the convent, she spent all her free time in the chapel before the tabernacle. “I will not let myself be so absorbed in work’s whirl that I forget about God,” she confessed. “I spend all my free moments at the feet of the Master hidden in the Blessed Sacrament. He has been teaching me since my earliest years” (Diary 82).
“O Lord, I see clearly,” she sincerely admitted to Jesus in prayer, “that my life from the first moment my soul could know You has been a constant battle, growing ever more intense. Every morning during meditation I prepare for battle for the whole day, and Holy Communion is my assurance that I will win – and it happens so. I fear the day I do not have Holy Communion. This Bread of the strong gives me all the strength to carry out this work, and I have the courage to do all the Lord demands. The courage and strength that dwell in me are not mine, but His who dwells in me – this is the Eucharist” (Diary 91).
At the end of her life, she wrote: “I see myself so weak that if it were not for Holy Communion, I would fall constantly. Only one thing holds me up: Holy Communion. From it I draw strength, in it is my power. I fear life on days without Holy Communion. I am afraid of myself. Jesus hidden in the Host is everything to me. From the tabernacle I draw strength, power, courage, and light; in moments of anguish, I seek comfort there. I could not give glory to God without the Eucharist in my heart.”
Her love for Jesus in the Blessed Sacrament was also expressed by the fact that she added “of the Blessed Sacrament” to her name and desired her yearly patron to be: Jesus-Eucharist. Read more

As part of this series, group workshops will take place on June 13–15 at the Shrine of Divine Mercy in Kraków-Łagiewniki. They will focus on the theme of self-acceptance in the context of one’s life story, emotions, physicality, and spiritual dimension. Participants will work both individually and in groups, guided by sisters from the Congregation of the Sisters of Our Lady of Mercy and Monika Guzewicz, PhD in psychology, psychotherapist, former university lecturer, and co-creator of the Godfullness Jesuits project. The workshops are organized by the Association of Apostles of Divine Mercy “Faustinum”. More information is available at: www.faustinum.pl
At first blush it may seem that the Devotion to the Divine Mercy is only a form of the Devotion to the Sacred Heart and that the devotions do not differ considerably. Upon a cursory reading of Sister Faustina’s ‘Diary’, in which the Heart of Jesus is frequently mentioned, one can be confirmed in this belief. However, a theological analysis of the work clearly differentiates between the two Devotions, which are so popular in the Church. The Rev. Professor I. Różycki carried out such an analysis and, on the basis of it he showed fundamental differences between the Devotion to the Sacred Heart of Jesus and the one to the Divine Mercy. They differ as regards the object of veneration: who and what is worshipped, the essence of the Devotions and the privileged time – the time to which certain promises are attached.
As regards the Devotion to the Divine Mercy, the mercy of the entire Holy Trinity is the object of the veneration itself, whereas as regards the Devotion to the Sacred Heart of Jesus – it is the Divine Person of the Son of God Incarnate.
As far as the Devotion to the Divine Mercy is concerned, the image of the Merciful Jesus is venerated – the one painted according to the vision that Sister Faustina had in Płock on the 22nd February, 1931, whereas as regards the other devotion – the human, ‘physical’ Heart of Jesus is worshipped.
Trust is the essence of the Devotion to the Divine Mercy, whereas reparation is the essence of the Devotion to the Sacred Heart of Jesus.
3p.m. – every day – (the moment of Jesus’ agony on the cross) and the Feast of Mercy – on the first Sunday after Easter – this is the privileged time as far as the Devotion to the Divine Mercy is concerned, whereas as regards the Devotion to the Sacred Heart the privileged time is on first Fridays of every month and on the Feast of the Sacred Heart.
