Maryja wzorem miłości służebnej dla chrześcijanina i Kościoła
Przygoda, Wiesław (Wydawnictwo Naukowe Papieskiej Akademii Teologicznej w Krakowie, 2008)
The Church in Poland, like the whole society, goes through transformations. New existential, social, and spiritual problems which are experienced by the Poles nowadays bring about new needs in the religious sphere, constituting new challenges for priests in the Church in Poland. During the times of communism the society almost equally shared poverty rather than well-being. Since 1989 the gap between the wealthy and the poor has been widening. It seems that the Church in Poland rightly reacted to the new needs of the faithful, developing new ways of pastoral and charitable service. The great capital of the Church in Poland are tens of thousands of volunteers. However, a great effort is needed in the formation work in order to not only keep the numbers of volunteers high, but to maintain the organizational and spiritual efficiency. It seems that in a community of the faithful attached to Marian devotion which exists in Poland the example of St. Mary, the Mother of God, can still be a motivating force which inspires to developing various forms of social love.
