On this special day, Fr. Chris will guide us deeper into the life, message, and spirituality of St. Faustina, helping us see how her trust in Jesus remains a path of hope and holiness for our times. This talk is a beautiful opportunity to celebrate St. Faustina's legacy and to rediscover the message of Divine Mercy at its very source. Come and encounter the love of Christ through the witness of the saint who gave her life to make His mercy known.
