Alek from Okopy

From a simple, difficult life – to great tasks... 
“It is so difficult today to maintain human dignity when a person is trampled upon and becomes a tool for labour. We must be strong with You, Jesus Christ, so as not to be crushed by those who wish to build our fatherland on what is earthly and transient,” he said to the participants of the first pilgrimage of workers to Jasna Góra. Today, these words resonate once again.

How our fathers came...

The power of attraction

Gość Extra No. 10/2024 English DODANE 10.10.2024

The power of attraction

A priest who “walked without shoes” because he gave them to those in need, was able to talk to a doctor, a professor, a simple cleaning woman or a steelworker from beneath the furnace – this is what those around him said.
