Odrodzenie Kościoła rzymskokatolickiego na Sokalszczyźnie

Abstract

The story of a revival of the Roman Catholic Church in Sokalsy region – the territory where for a long time the Church was cruelly fought down by the Soviet Union – is extremely interesting. Nowhere in Lviv Province was the fight against the Church so fierce or carried with such hatred. When we speak of Sokalsky region we do not mean administrative division of the Lviv Archdiocese. This is primarily a political division. It encompasses the area of Sokalsky poviat, where before World War II religious life was thriving.
