Saint Maria Faustina Kowalska lived her life in Poland at the start of the 20th century. Saint Faustina loved Jesus greatly and suffered greatly to serve Him. Her life and writings had a profound effect on Pope John Paul II, who canonized her on April 30, 2000 -- the first saint of the new millennium. The pope, now a saint himself, called her "The great apostle of Divine Mercy in our time."
If you need her assistance, simply ask her.
For the Intercession of Saint Faustina
O Jesus, You inspired Saint Faustina with profound veneration for Your boundless Mercy. Grant me through her intercession, if it be Your Holy Will, the grace for which I fervently pray. My sins render me unworthy of Your Mercy, but be mindful of Saint Faustina's spirit of sacrifice and self-denial, and reward her virtue by granting the petition which, with childlike confidence, I present to You through her intercession. Amen.
Our Father...
Hail Mary...
