The feast of St. Faustina

swieta-faustyna

The Feast of St. Sister Faustina Kowalska will be held on October, 5 at the Shrine of the Divine Mercy in Krakow-Łagiewniki and in all convents of the Congregation of Our Lady of Mercy. The Divine Mercy Apostle’s day of birth for Heaven was recalled by Sr. Euphemia Traczyńska in these words: On October 5, at dinner time, there was a bell. It was known that Sr. Faustina was dying. We dropped whatever we were doing and as we were, we went to see her. The chaplain was already in the infirmary with a few of the sisters. We prayed together. We prayed for a long time: the prayers for the dying, litanies and other prayers. We prayed for so long that even the evening Mass was held a little later than usual. At some point, Sr. Faustina gave a sign for Mother Superior to lean toward her, and she said that she would not die yet, and that she would let us know when she would. The sisters left. … When I returned to my cell, I entered the chapel and prayed for the souls in purgatory, asking that they awaken me when Sr. Faustina was dying, because I really wanted to be with her at the moment of her death. I was afraid to ask Mother Superior outright, for we young novices were not allowed to go in there, in case we should be infected with tuberculosis. Sister Amelia was allowed in, because she was already sick. I went to bed at the usual time and immediately fell asleep. Suddenly, someone wakes me up: “Sister, if you want to be present at the death of Sr. Faustina, get up now.” I immediately realized that a mistake had been made.. The one who came to wake Sr. Amelia, got into the wrong cell and came to me instead. As soon as I could, I woke Sr. Amelia, I put on my smock and cap, and quickly ran to the infirmary. Sister Amelia followed. It was around eleven at night. When we came there, Sr. Faustina seemed to slightly open her eyes and she smiled a little, and then bowed her head and that was it… Sister Amelia said she probably just died. I looked at Sr. Amelia, but I did not say anything. We prayed on. The candle was burning all the time.

After World War II, much changed. From the Lviv region, Polish nuns came to the Krakow area. In turn, from the north of Poland, a woman came to the south of the country after the good years experienced in the People’s Republic of Poland. She witnessed the account, and told me about it, that the now (...)

My father passed away on february month of 2024. We were all devastated as it was sudden and unexpected death. To cope with my sorrows I started praying by reciting divine mercy novena.
