Summary/Abstract: A merciful face should be a characteristic of every Christian, mercy is a synonym for Christianity. Although it is said that every saint has a merciful face; in our times saint sister Faustina from the Congregation of the Sisters of Our Lady of Mercy has become the model of a saint with a merciful face. On the example of saint sister Faustina the author wants to show this original model of sanctity, where the Divine and human mercy shine.
