16 października 1978 roku wybór papieża Polaka - Jana Pawła II przebudził Kościół katolicki w Polsce i samo społeczeństwo. Natomiast pierwsza pielgrzymka do Ojczyzny w 1979 roku, do której nie mogło dojść w 1966 roku w osobie papieża Pawła VI, ośmieliły Polaków, w tym także ludzi Kościoła. Wybór papieża Polaka przełożył się na prawdziwy bum powołaniowy w Polsce, w tym w seminarium paradyskim, nad którym nie były w stanie zapanować władze komunistyczne. Natomiast pierwsza pielgrzymka Jana Pawła II do Ojczyzny i kolejne dwie przebudziły sumienia Polaków, jak to podkreśla George Weigel w swoich publikacjach. Owocem pielgrzymki były narodziny „Solidarności”. Przez kolejne lata 80. Kościół oraz społeczeństwo w Polsce, a tym bardziej na tzw. Ziemiach Odzyskanych, żyło w klimacie i duchu pielgrzymek papieskich oraz peregrynacji obrazu MB Częstochowskiej. Jednak system komunistyczny nie zamierzał dać za wygraną. Nasilił na ogromną skalę działania operacyjne Służby Bezpieczeństwa, czego wyrazem były skrytobójcze mordy ludzi z opozycji. Przykładem jest rodzina Mariana Jurczyka oraz ludzi Kościoła katolickiego, w tym ks. Jerzego Popiełuszki. Jednak takie działania jedynie wzmagały w społeczeństwie i osobach duchownych wolę walki z systemem. Stąd dni systemu komunistycznego w Polsce, w tym na Pomorzu Zachodnim, były policzone. Kontraktowe wybory z czerwca 1989 roku jedynie potwierdziły ten fakt. Niestety, nie udało się w 1990 roku ostatecznie odciąć ludzi minionego sytemu i jego mentalności. Czego konsekwencje kraj przeżywał i niestety, nadal przeżywa na różnych płaszczyznach życia politycznego, społecznego, a zwłaszcza w przekazach mediów prywatnych, pozostających w rękach ludzi związanych z minionym systemem.
On December 16, in 1978, the election of the Polish Pope John Paul II awakened the Catholic Church in Poland and the society itself. The first pilgrimage of the Pope to Poland in 1979, that couldn’t be realized in 1966 as a pilgrimage of the Pope Paul VI, encouraged Polish people as well as the Church. The election of the Polish cardinal as a pope caused in Poland the beginning of a real “boom” of vocations to priesthood, also in Paradyż Seminary. Even communist authorities were not able to control it. The first pilgrimage of Pope John Paul II to His homeland and the next, awakened the conscience of Polish nation, as G. Weigel emphasizes in his publications. “The birth” of “Solidarity” was the fruit of this first pilgrimage. Over the following 1980s, the Church and the society in Poland, and especially on the so-called Regained Territories, lived in the spirit and atmosphere of both - papal pilgrimages and the peregrination of the miraculous image of Our Lady of Częstochowa. However, the communist system was not going to give up. It intensified on the large scale the operations of the Security Service, expressed in treacherous murders of people of opposition. The example of such oppression was the family of Marian Jurczyk, also people and priests of the Catholic Church, like priest Jerzy Popiełuszko, murdered treacherously. However, such action only intensified in society and in clergy the spirit of fighting with the system. Hence the days of the communists were numbered. The regulatory election in June 1989 only confirmed this fact. Unfortunately, in 1990 it was not possible to finally cut off the people of the passing system and its mentality; it have caused the consequences, which were and still are in various areas of political and social life, and especially in the media, remaining in the hands of people of the passing system.
