Kłopoty z kultem Bożego miłosierdzia w korespondencji Marii Winowskiej w latach 1958–1975
Problems with the Cult of Divine Mercy in the Correspondence of Maria Winowska Between 1958-1975

Summary/Abstract: In the Archives of the Krakow Metropolitan Curia, there is a private archive of Maria Winowska (1904–1993). Winiarska was an outstanding Catholic writer, an émigré activist, a long-term collaborator of Primate Stefan Wyszyński, and an author of Sister Faustyna Kowalska’s first biography (among other works). Among the documents collected there is a correspondence with the major figures of the Church concerning the worship of Divine Mercy in the forms proposed by Sister Faustina. The letters discussed in the article were written between 1958–1975. Their authors, apart from Maria Winowska, are: fr Michał Sopoćko, Archbishop Józef Gawlina, Archbishop, Karol Wojtyła, Sr. Beata Piekut and fr Julian Chróściechowski. The content of the letters shows the actions taken by their authors to introduce the cult of Divine Mercy into the Church. Simultaneously, the correspondence shows the differences between the authors as to how to do that in the context of the Holy Office notification being in operation.
