3. Of course, you knew about St. John Paul II (Karol Wojtila), but did you know that he was one of the strongest champions of the Mercy message? Did you know anything about St. Maximilian Kolbe, apart from the story of his death? And about St. Faustina Kowalska? Any other saints? (The book mentions many).

Stef (stefoodie) | 74 comments We love St. Pope JPII, though I have not read his writings on Divine Mercy; I knew he was a devotee and a promoter of the devotion. I've read St. Faustina's Diary, and our parish is St. Maximilian Kolbe :) I first read about him in a comic book published decades ago by one of the St. Paul publishers.
