Our Friend Faustina, Life Lessons in Divine Mercy
Michele Faehnle and Emily Jaminet, the writing team behind Divine Mercy for Moms, have assembled an extraordinary collection of essays by modern women, all joined by their common friendship with one extraordinary person: St. Faustina Kowalska (1905-1938), the Secretary and Apostle of the Divine Mercy.
Sharing tales of ordinary and extraordinary graces with wit and laughter, these faith-filled women explain how St. Faustina has loved them, mentored them, and inspired them to live with mercy toward all. With a foreword by acclaimed author Susan Tassone, this collection will help introduce you to a friend for life (and afterlife!) in extraordinary, ordinary St. Faustina.

These Life Lessons were just what my lukewarm heart needed. I was moved by the encouraging stories of how others came to be devoted to Divine Mercy and how they were sought and befriended by St. Faustina. The beautiful prayers closing each chapter further rekindled my joy and love to this saint and devotion to Divine Mercy. If your Divine Mercy Devotion has become tired and St. Faustina needs to befriended again, then let Life Lessons in Divine Mercy teach you to love them anew.Tami Kiser, author of Smart Martha’s Catholic Guide for Busy Moms teacher, speaker, producer, and founder of Heart Ridge Catholic Family Ministries
