22 April 2024

Wrocław, Poland – April 2024 -  Salesian Family Day was held on Saturday, 20 April at the headquarters of the Salesian Province of Poland-Wrocław (PLO), involving 70 people representing various groups. The presentation of the individual groups took place after the beginning of the meeting and the prayer led by the PLO Provincial, Fr Bartłomiej Polański: Salesians of Don Bosco, Daughters of Mary Help of Christians, Association of Salesian Cooperators, Past Pupils of Don Bosco, Volunteers of Don Bosco, Association of Mary Help of Christians, Sisters of St Michael the Archangel and Congregation of St Michael the Archangel. Representatives of the PLO Province oratories also spoke during the meeting. At the end of the presentations Jarosław Wąsowicz, SDB, gave a conference on the figure of Archbishop Antoni Baraniak, Salesian, Secretary of the Primate Cardinal August Hlond, a Salesian, and the Director of the secretariat of the "Primate of the Millennium", Cardinal Stefan Wyszyński. Antoni Baraniak's list of merits and achievements is very long, but the greatest proof of his loyalty to God and Country was his attitude during the arrest and ruthless interrogations of the communist regime that wanted to force him to testify against Card. Wyszyński. He endured 27 months of torture without ever betraying, persevering in God's grace until his death. He was announced Patron of 2024 by the Polish Parliament. The meeting also included, after the community Mass, a fraternal agape, and group work during which Archbishop Baraniak's strengths were summarised.
