Mazur, Jan2026-02-202026-02-202023Dissertationes Paulinorum, 2023, Tom 31, cz. 1, s. 5-12.1230-2910https://theo-logos.pl/handle/123456789/41584The published text is an amended version of the author’s statement during a nationwide scientific conference on Christian social teachining according to blessed Stefan Wyszńyski, which took place on October 22, 2021 at the Franicsan Seminary in Łodz, Poland. The article is a reflection on the ministry of Primate Stefan Wyszyński. The considerations are inspired by the words of the Polish Pope, St. John Paul II, uttered on October 29, 1978. They contain the conviction that there would not be a Polish Pope in the See of Peter if there were no Jasna Góra and the entire period of the history of the Church in Poland related to the episcopal and primate ministry of Cardinal Stefan Wyszyński. The Primate of the Millennium is associated with Jasna Góra. It is not difficult to notice that the Blessed Virgin Mary, especially venerated in the Icon of Jasna Gora, was in a sense an inspiration and affirmation of his entire priestly life. He considered himself her “slave” in a deeply spiritual sense. This was reflected in the specific manifestations and effects of his pastoral ministry. It can be hoped that the almost universal recognition of his pastoral activity (shown on the basis of selected statements) allows for a substantive response to the cited papal statement.polCC-BY-SA - Uznanie autorstwa - Na tych samych warunkachkardynałowieStefan WyszyńskiJan Paweł IIKarol WojtyłaJasna GóraCzęstochowaKościół w Polsce w XX w.XX w.posługa Stefana Wyszyńskiego jako Prymasa TysiącleciaKościół w PolsceKościółhistoria KościołaKościół w okresie komunizmuMaryjaPrymas PolskiprymasicardinalsJohn Paul IIChurch in Poland in the 20th centuryStefan Wyszyński’s service as the Primate of the MillenniumChurch in PolandChurchChurch historyChurch during communismMaryPrimate of PolandprimatesArticle
