Kruczyński, Dariusz (Wydawnictwo Diecezjalne Adalbertinum, 2014)

She offered her life for her daughter-in-law, by asking the German soldier, to be arrested instead of her daughter-in-law and she saved her life. The Caritas of Ełk Dioceses from the time of her beatification places her as an example for workers and volunteers.

In this article the religious silhouette and main features of her spirituality has been shown. The author encourages all volunteers to imitate the Blessed Marianna. Gives answer to a question: in which way she may be an example for contemporary volunteers. Passes over the main aims and methods of developing volunteers of Caritas to the love of neighbor and to the mercy.
