Summary/Abstract: The article indicates the necessity of combining the message of revelations given to Saint Faustine with an in‑ depth theological reflection and with the liturgy of the Church, i.e. the holy sacraments, in particular with the Eucharist. At the beginning it explains liturgical worship as a work of Jesus Christ, a reliable and merciful Priest, and of the people of God. It presents mercy as a ”real sacrifice” which must not be left out of the properly understood Christian worship. It then describes the Eucharist in historical terms as a sacrament of mercy in its fuller and fuller understanding. It analyses Mass orations on mercy aimed at introducing participants of the liturgy into the experience of the mystery of Redemption. It explains the notion of Christian spiritual experience and provides two examples of the mystic experience of the Eucharist as a sacrament of mercy (Saint Faustina Kowalska and Saint Vincent Pallotti).
