Summary/Abstract: The subject of the analysis is the text written by Sister Faustyna Kowalska entitled Diary: Divine Mercy in My Soul, which has the characteristics of an intimate journal of a non- professionalist. I am using the theoretical concept of Alfred Schütz to present the sub-worlds of an acting individual. My thesis sounds as follows: The Diary can be treated from the perspective of phenomenological sociology as a record of the world of the nun’s action, which experiences the discovery of a vocation, communicating within various sub-universes. The basic area for her is the religious sub-world. According to the project of social ontology, I am looking for general truths regarding forms of social existence. Sister Faustyna was canonized in 2000. The Diary is now considered to be the most frequently translated work written in Polish.
