Litany of Divine Mercy

The Litany of Divine Mercy is a structured prayer that invokes God's mercy, emphasizing themes of compassion and forgiveness. Originating from the messages given to Saint Faustina Kowalska in the early 20th century, it addresses various attributes of God, such as His goodness and loving-kindness. Recited often in devotion services, especially on Divine Mercy Sunday, this prayer serves as a reminder of the importance of mercy in the Christian faith, inviting believers to seek God's mercy for themselves and the world, while also encouraging them to practice mercy toward others.
